Jul 24, 2009 Bottle. Pours a medium reddish-brown, thin head, no real lacing. Nose is tart cherries, fudge/toffee, mild horseblanket, a bit brandyish. Palate is smooth and soft and mildly sour. Nice carbonation. Tasty and sharp, faintly metallic. Good, but not lifechanging.

Jul 21, 2009 the Oude Brune! !2 oz into snifter. Very dark (but clear) brownish red body with a non-existent white head (I tired to pour aggressively to stir this one up, but with no avail). The aroma is OKAY, but too sweet for the style with a good amount of soy in there (which I am a huge NON-fan of). The flavor is totally inoffensive (even to BMC drinkers)... which is kind of a problem with this style. Where is the sour in this "sour ale"? There is a pinch of sweetness and tartness, but neither are strong enough to call this beer either sweet or tart... just kind of neutral. A hint of sweet cherries in there. Medium body with light carbonation. Overall: Fine, but nothing more.

Jul 17, 2009 Bottle, 5.5%. The aroma is clearly metallic. Cloudy dark brown colour, red shine. Small light brown aroma. The flavour is slightly malty with a faint acidity. Tastes OK, but I would have liked it sweeter and more acidic.
