This red ale is brewed in traditional West Flanders style. A combination of light, crystal, and dark barley malt, wheat, and oats are brewed with local whole-cone hops and variety of select yeast and lactic bacteria. We age our red ale in oak barrels for a period of time to develop complex richness, soft tannins, and fruity tart character. The aged beer is then blended with young beer to create the desired balance of malt sweetness with a dry finish.

Small pour at Backcountry Pizza. Clear, brownish, red color, with a small, off-white head. The aroma is raspberry, lime, oak, salt, and caramel. Aggressively tart, with a sharp, acidic mouthfeel. Solid.

30.03.2015, 0,75l bottle (#FWV 7406) shared with friends @ home:
Soft gusher. Small slightly fizzy shortlasting head, nice reddish color. Aroma is slightly dry and fresh fruity, mild vinegar, red berries, oak, grass, berry skin, hay. Taste is mild and slightly dry, grass, red berries, oak, mild vinegar, minerals, cherry stones, berry skin, soda powder. Medium bitterness, slightly dry and watery mouthfeel. Nice, but a little "flat" mouthfeel.

The Tenth Beer of my #6000 celebration (#10 of 13 - six beers on either side of 6000 and the milestone itself). Deep amber and brown coloured body with a nice, fast-dying tan head, about a centimtetre tall. Aroma of vinegar, yeast, cherries, oak, flowers, acid, citrus and a bunch more fruit - mainly cherries. Light to Medium-bodied; Strong oaky and dry malt flavours with a bit of grain, some yeast, hints of toffee, all showing a ton of cherry and fruity flavours with a lot of acidic and vinegary notes, but the cherries are the strongest, followed by the dry oak. Aftertaste shows a pleasant sweetness, some dry, musty oak flavours, but the cherry and acidic flavour that dominates is nice and potent, but not executed entirely and showing a bit too much musty and dry flavours. Overall, a nice and fairly elegant beer with a few loose edges and a very dry and oaky complexity that makes this nice when the cherry side falls a touch flat, even after the time in the bottle. Nice to try, and worth trying once, but probably not more than that, and nice for me to sample during my celebration for #6000! I sampled this 75 cL wax-sealed bottle purchased from Whole Foods in Portland (Pearl, Downtown), Oregon on 07-December-2013 for US$19,99 sampled at home in Washington on 25-March-2017. Bottle Number: FWV 1505, Best By: 20-July-2018 // Purchased: 07-December-2013 // Sampled: 25-March-2017
