Jul 29, 2005 Sour orange and citrusy wine aromas. Nearly a half inch of white head gives way to lacing on this golden clear beer. Big flavors follow big aromas, with a souring lemon-pine green apple flavors. Not too tart compared to Rodenbach and Duchesse, so very drinkable and neutral in body. A good sipper with much to recommend it.

Jul 7, 2005 Wow! This only gets a 3.68? Huge sour/tart aroma makes your lips pucker without a taste. Great sour/tart lemon flavor, has a little mustiness to it. Finish leaves you begging for more. Perfect hot summer day beer.

Jun 19, 2005 Bottle: Excellent aroma. Loaded with sour and tart fruit (lemon and light cherry) and lightly vinuous. Pours a mostly transparent golden-orange with a small white head that quickly fades to a ring. Very lambic-like only with more carbonation. Very sour and tart (lemony and some sour apple) with a some acidity and woodiness in the finish. Had absolutely no idea this was a Flemish Sour when I bought this. What a great suprise!

Jun 10, 2005 Updated: Dec 23, 2007Coming back to these beers after a few years. Pours crystal clear golden with a large head that sticks around. Aroma is what I like, Flanders sour - medium strength. The problem is it’s just thats and not backed up by anything else. I like it but man, throw in some malt sweetness. Some sour lemon in the "lager sitting out too long" kind of way. Just souring a regular old blonde ale.

Jun 7, 2005 Light gold, thin head, aroma did not entice me. Thin bodied, the tart fruitiness overwhelms a light spice attempt... just much to sour for my taste, could not finish.

Jun 1, 2005 Tangy aroma, sourish, some woody notes. Golden body, with a small white head. Very fruity flavor, sour and tangy. Very good sour ale!

May 30, 2005 Updated: Jun 13, 2005(Bottle 33 cl) Almost fully golden, aparently filtered with a small compact head. Smells sour, tastes sour and due to the light color, I was easily led to believe that this is a gueuze. But it is in fact a "Flemmish red ale" along the lines of Rodenbach, which is brewed on pale malts - very unusual. Apparently brewed solely for the American market, but I don’t really remember where I got it. 141004
