Portsmouth Flanders Red

Tried at at Toncatcher’s T3 tasting. Bottle from who else, the sour king Wee HeavySD. Amber color. Lots of sourness. Needs some sweetness or some barrel aging or something. I suspect some oxidation has dulled the flavors. Overall pretty decent.

Bottle thanks to bu11zeye. Brown in color with a decent sized beige head. Aroma is of apricot, raspberry, peach, plum, light grapefruit, cranberry, and grain. Taste is apricot, apple skin, cranberry, wood, peach and tart.

Time to catch up before BCTC. Bottle at PilsnerPeter’s Spring Throwdown. Thank to everyone who brought great beer and ribs and pickles and everything! Reddish brown with ring head. Mild aroma. Semisour cherry Lifesavers flavor with thin body.

Bottle. Pours amber/red with a thin ring of off white bubbles. Smells of residual sugar, vinegar, dry, oaky. Tastes dry and acidic with some tartness and vinegar on the finish.

Light brown pour with a creamy white head and lace. Clean sour aroma with a hint of caramel. A mouth watering sour tartness that is fruity but hard to pin down. Slightly thin but very good.

Super sour. Smells of sour fruit, lemon and wheat. Dark gold color. Sour, bitter citrus flavor, light and refreshing.

(22oz bottle) Pours an amber body with a small off-white head. Aroma of unripe pear, lychee, peach, blackberries, red plum, and cherries. Flavor of grass, earth, plum, sulfur, peach skins, and apricot.

Bomber at PPRBSG09. Pours a clear clean red to dull brownish with a thin head. Aroma is fruity, light cherry notes, dark burnt malts, sour cherry, metallic hints, woody, with some toasty brown malts, vegetal and ginger hints. Flavor is a slight brine with pickle hints, vegetal, more sour cherry metallic and cyanide, deep stewed malts, and toasty grains, sour cherry, and a light tart finish. Strange flanders.
