Commercial Description:
This "Vlumschen Bruynen" or "Flemmish brown" (syn: old brown) was first brewed in 1986 on the occasion of the brewery’s centenary. It has a sweetish roasted bouquet and a mild port-like palate which generates a long bitter finish. Retired 2006 for the new Arend range.

330ml bottle (Mallaskukko, Turku) Dark reddy brown, no head. Mämmi smell. Also tastse of mämmi initially until a slight fizz takes over. Then the dark roasted malt returns for a long sweet dark finnish. Too sweet.

75 cl bottle at Delirium Café, Göteborg, Sweden. Hazy dark amber, medium creamy off-white head. Roasted malt aroma, a bit nutty, with piney hops. A bit thin for a belgian ale. A bit sweet to start with, but dry and bitter in the finish. A bit 1D but quite nice.

Bottled. Dark amber colour. Low head. Tidbits and licorice in aroma. Lively mouthfeel, with bassets tidbits, iron and licorice. Very well balanced. Low sweetness. I believe this beer was 6+ abv.

330 ml bottle. Slightly hazy dark red body with a small brown head. Aroma is sweet malt. Flavor is rather sweet, ordinary Belgium ale with a hint of sour acidity deep, deep down there somewhere. I like the style of this beer, but believe they don’t really get it right.

Bottled 0.7 liter. Amber-brown coloured, short lasting head. Malty and fruity aroma. Delicate malty and sour flavour, some fruit. Nice easy-to-drink Flemish Sour.
