This wild red ale (Flanders Red) has been maturing in American oak barrels for 2 years with additions of wild yeast and bacteria. Distinct wine-like notes of plum and raisin are backed up by a subtle tartness with an underlying foundation of caramel malt and oak tannin

Tap at Gambrinus. Pours a clear deep mahogany color with almost no head. Really easy drinking oud bruin. Lots of oak on the nose with a big vinous character. Deep, earthy cherry and light wood. Dry on the palate, well-rounded and thirst quenching.
