Papsoe (10285), Frederiksberg, Denmark Jul 22, 2005 (Bottle 25 cl) Hazy brown with a nice head that leaves a pretty lacework. Some roasted malt and some brown dugar with only a hint of tartness. Bitter, hoppy finish. Softer, milder and less sharp than your typical Flemish sour - a bit like sweet, Danish Christmas table beer ("julehvidtøl"). 290899 lachesis (759), St Idesbald, Belgium Jul 14, 2004 Light amber color with a white airy head. Nice aroma of caramel and sweet malts with a little fruity tone. Good round taste with a sweet malty touch and a light sour fruity freshness. In the end there is a fine bitterness that fits well in the beer. Ungstrup (11354), Frederiksberg, Denmark Nov 30, 2003 The aroma is slightly sweet malty with notes of caramel. The color is amber and it has a very small light brown head. The flavor is sweet malty with fruity notes and a good bitterness. A little thin - but it is a 5% ABV Flemish Sour ale - which could explain that. JorisPPattyn (4499), Antwerpen, Belgium Oct 23, 2003 (Actual bottle I'm having is called 'Adriaen Brouwer'. But everything points at labelbeer of Oudenaards)
Deep brown with reddish shine. Good yellow-brown head, irregular. Nose with chaff, moccha, (wet) brown bread. Nutty taste, brown bread/malt; sweet - nearly German in character. No acids detectable. Tastes more as a Münich than as a Flemish Oud bruin. Bit thin, mouthfeel as if suspension of sweet flour in watery liquid. Not only untrue to style, it's not very exciting neither. Unremarkable. jbrus (4178), Delft, Netherlands Oct 23, 2003 Rusty and caramel aroma. Brown color, off-white head, nice lace. Bit sweet (caramel), hint of sourness, nice bitterness. Not very special.
