Commercial Description:
Rare Vos is flemmish for "Sly Fox," and the name of one of Brussels’ great cafes. It has a sweetly fruity malt character and yeasty spiciness. A fine dose of yeast permits the beer to mature and mellow in the bottle.

An unclear dark orange beer with no head. The aroma is primarily yeaste, but also contains notes of malt and oranges, while the flavor primarily is sweet with notes of yeast.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Slightly hazy amber golden with a creamy, off-white head leaving a broad curtain of laces. Aroma of yeast and burned caramel. Medium body with lightly sweet caramel and burned sugar - and then a distinct yeastiness. Rather tart without much bitterness. 191206

Bottled. Amber colour with mediumsized creamy white head. Aroma is yeast, fruits and sweet malts. Flavour is fruity, mildly spicy, sweet malty as well as yeasty. Wellbalanced and well made, but not that exciting.
