2008 Bottle - Pours a dark amber, slight head and lacing. Aroma is all sour cherry and oak, flavour is tart fruit, wood and slight yeast. Quaffable and a fun experience, but not the best sour out there...

Darker ruby color, moderate head with good lacing and retention. Aroma is sweet with a light fruity sour end, lots of wood and vanilla. Medium bodied, only a light sourness, loads of vanilla sweetness. Nothing too crazy here, easy to drink.

het donkerbruine succesbier van brij Strubbe heeft een lichte fruitige smaak waarin ook de rijpherid van de foeders merkbaar zijn. Het laat zich gemakkelijk verleiden tot een glas meer en wordt beter met de wachttijd (deze die nu proefde was al 2 jaar oud, dus belegen

Bottle: Dark brown and ruby with a small beige head. Aroma is fruity and sour, rather middle of the road in intensity. Some candied sugar sweetness. Taste is dark fruits, a little vinous, sweet fruit into tart fruit, and a little bit of the barrel aging. Rather dry, but easy drinking and enjoyable.

Corked bottle. Pour is clear amber-brown with little head. Aroma is sweet and slightly sour; pretty faint. Flavor was not nearly as sour as I was expecting. Medium body. Somewhat disappointing.

On tap, The Thirsty Monk, Asheville, NC. Brilliant Reddish Copper, Dense beige head. Very Winey, tart, fruity aroma. Flavor is sour and tart, perhaps a bit winey, with a significant oak character. Some herbal notes, as well. Very enjoyable!

Bottle: Pours a dark brown ebony color with a thin little head and a smidge of lacing. The nose is light and fruity with some cherry and subtle sour hints. Mild caramel and dough as well. The flavor is a little tart with a dry fruity flavor, balanced finish and a tangy overall experience. Not quite explosive enough or rich enough for my liking on the style, but it’s fun to get to try sour ales whenever they come into town.
