Portsmouth Flanders Red Blend (Kriek Lambic)

I had a couple of classes of this yesterday the last one I paired with my super. Tod came over and chuckled. It was a grilled chicken salad but hey I loved it so much I had to work in a second glass of the day. It was kind of hard seeing I drank two of the sour brune with the Lambicus the day before and was still paying for it. I thought I would include the official Description of this one in the review. "We blended the remaining Flanders Red with the year old Sour Brune, Lambicus and some tart cherries to make a pseudo Kriek Lambic. Traditionally we would have to age the blend for at least a year to call it an official Lambic. But it is close enough for us American brewers here at Portsmouth. " The color was a wonderful cherry red and it had a slight trail of bubble coming up the glass. The aromas of cherries and Lambicus hit your nose even with the glass on the table. The flavors followed the nose, I was surprised though. I had both the blended brews separate and they were both ok but together they were fantastic. Tart sour cherries and some funky bitter was a wonderful marriage in my mouth. Who would have known? It’s a sour so drinkability is kind of a strange thing. One glass is enough but this one I wanted two LOL. I hope to see this one again some time in the summer
