Bios Vlaamse Bourgogne

Brewed by Brouwerij Van Steenberge
Style: Sour Ale
Ertvelde, Belgium

Muddy with medium beige head. Sweet and sour aroma with malty and fruity notes. Sweet falvor with basamic, fruity and sour notes.

Bottle. Pours red/orange with a tan head. Sour aroma. Vinegar....balsamic vinegar....maybe this beer would go good with some bread and olive oil? Interesting, but not for me.

I’m sorry - I just don’t "get" the sour ale. Yes it’s very aromatic, yes it has a very complex flavor that grabs the palate. But no, I didn’t like it. Very sour and offensive to me. SECOND ANALYSIS: Being more of a fan of sours now, I like this one. Very sweet and sour.

I’m not too fond of this brew but it does have a good taste to it. I was looking for an ale that was a little more sour. I’d say it’s worth trying if you like trying new things, but my curiosity has been satisfied. At least for this beer.

Bottle. Pours a clear deep amber with a small but lasting off-white head that leaves good lacing. Aroma of tart cherries and light caramel. Taste is the same as aroma with a hint of vinegar. Medium thin mouthfeel with a mild amount of bitterness, moderate carbonation, and a mild to moderate amount of acidity that is very well balanced. An easy drinking sour ale.

12ish oz, bottle claiming Monks Cafe Flemish Sour Red, pours a nice dark ruby, with small off white head. good amount of bubbles breaking through the head, however the flavor is mildly acetic but lacking any fruit distinction i dont really find any raspberries or other fruits perhaps i am missing the idea behind Sour Ale. still not bad, and great to sip on a sour every once in a while.

bottle, very sweet and sour, moderate carbonation. nice tart flavor, this one was middle of the road, there wasnt much body here

Bottle. Aroma sweet sour with notes of prunes and tart raspberries. Flavor continues with the same and some other fruits, plums, apricots, sort of mellow fruits with a sour edge. Quite tasty.
