Dec 31, 2008 Murky brown color, frothy bubbles form, but no real head. Aroma is faintly sour with tart red fruit, some molasses, brown sugar, and cherry cola. Slightly sweet and tart flavor. Lemons and tart cherries come through, and a round caramel flavor. A bit subdued and straightforward, not sticky, and not too thin. A great sour fix.

Dec 27, 2008 This is truly a refresing beer. The sourness and low alcohul (for a belgin) make for a realy good drinkablilty. The sourness has a palate clensing sensation that made it pair well with my pizza.

Dec 25, 2008 Updated: Dec 30, 200825cl bottle from Barley Wine. It poured a dark red colour with a medioum big foamy head that settled down fast in the glass. The aroma is massively sour with huge notes of vinegar and hints of cherry. I know sour ales are supposed to smell like this, but this is just not a very inviting aroma. The flavour is bitter and tastes of cherries, apples. It has a short aftertaste.

Dec 22, 2008 Dark red amber pour. Some sour cherry notes with hops thrown in the mix. Strange vinegar-esque/oaky flavor on the palate. All in all pretty decent.

Dec 18, 2008 750mL cork and wire. Finally getting around to it. Pours very dense, thick, and murky. Cannot see through it at all. Got a small head that fades rather quickly. Aroma is a thick, very balsamic-like, cherry-aceto-woodsiness. Taste is a bit sweet, cherry-cola, with more of a stinginess, rather than sourness. But a sour and aceto aftertaste. Finishes rather easy. Not as sour as the Grand Cru and a bit more crude. But overall still a damn good Flanders Red. It took me a while to like it, the GC was always a fav but this was hard because of all the balsamic flavors. I guess I have learned to love it.
