| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jul 13, 2009 Cola brown with a brown head. Aroma of sourness. Little sour, oaky, fruity, dry finish. Tasty as heck. Very flavorful, palate refreshing. Has a nice sweetness that balances nicely with the sour and oak flavors. I will reccomend this to others thelizard (28), Canton, Ohio, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jul 9, 2009 Bottle with Pipper at the Beer Engine. My first Flemish Red. Color was dark brown, similar to the Roch 8 like she said, but it was cleaner (no floating yeast flakes), and had less of a head on it. The smell wasn’t terribly appealing. I thought it was going to be an excessively sour ale, but I was pleasantly mistaken. Yes, it was very sour, but it was well-balanced, and very drinkable, with a full palate of grapes. Recommended.

Brown with small head. Aroma of fruit and notes of sourness. Flavor is dry with notes of cherries and malt Pipper (230), Ohio, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jul 9, 2009 Bottle at The Beer Engine: Color: same as Rochefort 8 with no head. Aroma is funky bleu cheese and sour white grapes. Smooth slightly tart but boozier flavor at the beginning of the sip then tart bite at the back of the palate. Very refreshing and completely different than the last Flemish Red I had Duchesse de Bourgogne. Love the diversity of this style - it felt like a borderline lambic. Madsnp (616), Odense C, Denmark

Spicy and sour aroma with notes of vinegar, wood, sugar and berries. Sweet and sour flavour with wooden notes. Fruity. Nice and spicy finish. Very refreshing. jvmiller (532), Bel Air, Maryland, USA
