Tasted from the bottle, on 08/02/2013. Pours copper/light brown, perfectly clear, with just a tiny off-white head. Aroma is quite intense, tartness dominates, accompanied with sour berries, raspberries as well, a hint of grapes skin in the end. Taste is also tart upfront, but not acetic, then come wild funky notes, mixed with dry wine and grape juice. After warming up raspberries show up, as well as a bit of oaky vanilla character. Mouthfeel is medium bodied, medium-light carbonated. Aftertaste is of funk&sourness, with a faint warming alcohol sensation at the back. Overall, a well balanced, not too sour indeed, pretty drinkable and rather tasty beer. Recommended+ ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Pinkish amber, orange zest, slight funk. Wine like flavor, fruit forward, slight sourness. Nice

VEry solid beer. Sour, but not super, tart, refreshing, not exactly following nay traditional guidelines making it unique.

750mL bottle, pours a hazy dark amber with a medium beige head. Aroma of malt vinegar, some soured fruits, and some red berries. Flavour of moderately soured dark fruits, quite a high vinegary quality, some red berries, and wood. Too vinegary for me, but quite complex and not too sour. Overrated, but decent stuff.

Taster at DBS. Aroma of light cherry; flavor is odd and funky cherry, not great. Palate and taste are average at best. Fair sour beer. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Bottled a year ago. Notes of wood, leather, lacto, and mild sour cherry with a hint of cognac and caramel. Moderate sourness 5/10. Slightly disappointing, but certainly a good Flanders ale.

From the 100 Belgian Beers To Try Before You Die book. Had an old and a new bottle side by side. Both poured an amber brown colour with a thin beige head. The older bottle had an aroma of raisins, blue cheese, balsamic vinegar, oak and alcohol. Similar flavours with mild carbonation and a oily mouth-feel. The newer bottle had more balsamic vinegar on the nose with oak, lemon and alcohol notes again. The newer version was more tart, however, I preferred the older version. 3 / 3 split around the table though. Great!

Annata 2009 in pompa. Quando si dice tanta roba. Questa barrique è qualcosa di veramente unico. Molto avvolgente in bocca riesce a coprire bene i gradi alcolici.

Pretty good. Not my favorite Flanders red but pretty good. Slightly overpriced though.
