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.

Jul 3, 2009 Pours a murky red with a foamy thick off white head. Nose is slight sour cherry and some dense woodiness with some old sock and bretty nose. Flavor is sour and funky up front finishes with a hint of cherry and a unpleasant metallic taste. Its light but its still detracting. Could have been great but as it was, merely adequate.

Jun 28, 2009 It poured a dark liquid with some reddish tones, with a small foam that left a nice lacing. The aroma was fruity, sweet and sour. The flavor was similar, sour, fruity and sweet with some red berries.

Jun 28, 2009 Spices come through in the noise over a sweet light body. Quite unexpected. Good but not great.
