UPDATED: JUN 29, 2011 2010-06-02, RBESG 2010, draught at Brasserie 4:20, 7-3-7-3-15=35
Light blond color. Strong acidic and acetic aroma, with a dash of Bretts. Lean body, with low carbonation; a feeling of uva fragola; sour; citric. Refreshing.
2009-10-17, draught at Spuyten Duyvil, New York, 8-5-7-3-15=38
Red mahogany color. Nice aroma, lactic, with caramel and cellar smell. Reasonable body structure; caramel flavor, light residual sweetness, interesting fruit profile (cherries, but also raspberries, and some cherry kernels); medium lactic sourness. The final is lightly astringent and woody, a bit sour, but also short. Pleasant, it reminds me the Rodenbach family. Good.

(draft) Clear deep red body with a touch of brown, topped by a small beige head. Aroma is medium sweet, wood, sour cherry. Taste is medium sweet, wood, cherry, good sourness, fair sweetness to complement the sourness. Light-medium body, light stickiness, acidity. A wonderful Flemish sour -- a bit bolder than the Duchesse.

Bottle. Reddish brown color. Caramel, oak and red fruit in the aroma. Sour flavor, overshadowing the also present sugary sweetness. Toffee, soft red fruit. Mouthpuckering lemon. Fairly short aftertaste.

4.5 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 18/20
UPDATED: MAY 20, 2012 Bottle… RBWG ‘10… This beer rocks!... Mostly clear, light brown ale with a small, fat-bubbled, off-white head. Earthy, woody, funky nose with black cherry and barnyard notes. Medium-bodied with moderate carbonation. Fruity and fairly sour. Finishes tart, lightly sweet, then dry. Like Ommegang’s version, I could drink this brew all day, every day. World class Flanders Red!
