The Tatamagouche Brewing Company (commonly referred to as “Tata”) is a family owned and operated craft brewery located in the heart of Tatamagouche, Nova Scotia. In 2014, the family converted an old butcher shop into a brewery, and have since added several additions to the sides and back of the building to help accommodate their growth. In 2023 the brewery launched Nomad, a line of alcohol-free beer. Tata Brew have won awards provincially as well as nationally while they continue to grow their team and brand.
Tasting Notes
Brewed dark and dry as a classic Irish stout with rich roasty and malt flavours and finishing smooth. Despite the dark flavours of coffee, dark chocolate, and roasted malts, this style of stout doesn’t actually drink heavy – the abv is lower and the body is surprisingly light. For that reason, the Irish Dry Stout has become a pub staple thanks to its drinkability and ease of food pairing.
Method
Dry stout is black beer with a dry-roasted character thanks to the use of roasted barley. The emphasis on coffee-like roasted barley and a moderate degree of roasted malt aromas define much of the character. Hop bitterness is medium to medium high. This beer is often dispensed via nitrogen gas taps that lend a smooth, creamy body to the palate.
