Heeft het aroma van het oude Vlaams bruin bier. Een licht zurige maar fruitige smaak van oude porto, caramel en noten en er zit zelf een oude vermufde smaak van dorre bladeren in. Een heerlijk biertje om lekker van te genieten in de safa bij een winterdag

Jul 21, 2008 Bottle courtesy of Fonefan: Poured a deep cloudy red color ale with a medium foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma consists of oak with some sour cherries and some cloves and some very subtle light black chocolate notes. Taste is also a mix between some black chocolate covered black cherry with some clearly identifiable oak with a sour finish. A lot more complex then most traditional Flemish sours out there. This is definitely a beer I would like to try more often in order to try and decipher all of the characteristics.

Jul 13, 2008 Bottle @ the RBESG08 Grand Tasting.
Pours deep brown with a small, film head. Aroma is brilliant - funky, tart, roasted, sour-dough, raisins, vinegar... herbs... lots of things. Medium carbonation, which suits it perfectly. Flavour is super tart, light burning in effect. Pleasantly roasted tones with good oak presence, raisins peeping through again, grapes, overripe apple, cinnamon and other spices. Simply wonderful.

Jul 11, 2008 Bottle at the Kulminator in Antwerp (March 2008). Pours brown with a 2 finger tan head. Nose of sour fruits and vinegar. Nice balance between sweet and tart. One of my favorites on me Belgium trip.

Dark brown coloured, small tan head, sourish acidic nose. Very sour fruity vinous taste. Also sour cherries and acidic grapes. Overall wickedly sour and excellent brew.

Shady brown color, tan head. Acidic sour scent. Sour metallic taste. Thin mouthfeel, low bitterness. Not my thing at all.
