2018 Advent Beer Review
Date: Dec 22, 2018
Beer: Brewery Vivant - Tart Side of the Moon
Style: Tart Imperial Stout
Source: Grand Rapids, Michigan
ABV: 9.5%
"Big dark chocolate notes and hints of black cherries erupt from
this hearty stout. We kettle-soured a portion of this brew and
blended it back for a slight tartness on the finish. No adjuncts
are added to this beer-- these robust layers of flavor are yeast
driven. Listen to the lunatic in your head... and enjoy"
Tart Side of the Moon
This is possibly the most unique beer that I've ever had. It has
that signature sour beer smell that's tart and funky (and a bit
rancid in my opinion). On the surface it tastes like a strong stout.
The cherries intrude the otherwise familiar beer with a burst of
funkiness. They do indeed taste like the black cherries that you
find in ice cream and other desserts. I don't "hate" it, but I can't
say that I like it either. It's definitely an experience though and
I'm glad that I tried it. I would say if you're a fan of sour beers
then you can't pass this one up.
- Would I buy it again? No
- How much could I drink in one night? I struggled to get through
the can.
