Excellent red ale, my favorite. Subtle sweet fruitiness. A favorite to everyone I have given a sample too.

Excellent flemish sour. Not as sour as Duchess, which might actually be a plus for some people. A little too light for my taste, but that also makes it very quaffable.

[Keg] Ruby amber color; thin persistent cap.<br />Wonderful fruity aroma &#40;ripe apricots, raisins, plums...&#41;; winy.<br />Pretty sweet, fruity, with a light oak cask character. Just the required hop.<br />Good palate, instead that bitter it"s sweet and lightly tart, astringent.<br />It would be perfect with some sharper sourness.

OK beer. Soft and fruity. More sweet than sour. Very refreshing.
