About TALEA Beer Co.
TALEA Beer Co. is a brewery and taproom on Richardson Street in Brooklyn. It is the flagship, opened in March 2021, and its website says every TALEA beer is brewed here. The company has since added taprooms elsewhere in New York City.
The beers lean fruity. Its website says they are known for fruit-forward flavors and playful takes on classic styles. The beer list runs from hazy IPAs and sours to pilsners, lagers and a saison.
The taproom also serves wine, cocktails, coffee and non-alcoholic drinks. The food menu includes Detroit-style sourdough pizzas, Bavarian pretzels, salads, toasts and cheese plates. The website points to the courtyard for pizza and a beer.
Co-founders Tara Hankinson and LeAnn Darland started the company after meeting at a beer startup. Google lists the place as a brewery, bar, cafe and restaurant, and describes a slick space with outdoor seats.
