New Belgium Brewing Launches Tartastic Strawberry Lemon and Voodoo Ranger Guava Spruce DIPA

New Belgium Brewing has two new releases that it hopes will fill your summer weather beer needs. The latest beer in its rotating fruit beer series is Tartastic Strawberry Lemon that’s brewed with strawberry and lemon purees. Also joining Tartastic is Voodoo Ranger Guava Spruce DIPA that is loaded with juicy and fruity hops.

Here are additional details on both Tartastic Strawberry Lemon and Voodoo Ranger Guava Spruce DIPA along with new, additional packaging formats for its Fat Tire Belgian White, Voodoo Ranger IPA, and Juicy Haze IPA…

“A great summer beer features fresh fruit flavors, just the right amount of sweetness and a quick flash of acidity to round things out,” said Ross Koenigs, New Belgium Research and Development Brewer. “Tartastic Strawberry Lemon is all of those things, and the result is a refreshing, easy drinker that offers a refreshing alternative to sweeter shandies and radlers.”

Tartastic pours a pale gold color with a soft strawberry hue. This light-bodied beer checks in at 4.2 percent ABV. At only 130 calories per 12 oz. serving, Tartastic Strawberry Lemon is a perfect go-to beverage for speedo season.

Voodoo Ranger Guava Spruce DIPA
Also available this summer is Voodoo Ranger Guava Spruce DIPA. This release sports a full array of juicy and fruity hop vibes, courtesy of an innovative dry hopping method occurring in the middle of fermentation.

“This liquid is the result of our research on how mid-fermentation dry hopping affects flavor outcome,” said Koenigs. “This new-to-us system allows more versatility integrating big hop characteristics into our beers. It’s a bit of a new world for us, and we’re excited to share our exploration with Voodoo Ranger Guava Spruce.”

An exotic, hoppy DIPA dripping with delicious tropical guava and wild-harvested, citrusy spruce tips, this Voodoo Ranger special release is a one-of-a-kind IPA providing exciting and exclusive hop flavors to beer drinkers.
