Bacchus Flemish Old Brown surprises with a taste reminiscent of wine and offers a beautiful balance between sweet and sour. This beer impresses through both its sourness and the slight touch of caramel brought by the roasted malt. However, its sourness is less pronounced than the sourness of other Flemish red-brown beers. Therefore, Bacchus Flemish Old Brown is a very refreshing beer with a pleasant aftertaste. A beer full of character and history!

I think this is a Belgium Sour Ale. The aroma is slightly sour and a little sweet - a good aroma for the type. The color is a deep red and it has a small fast disappearing head. The flavor is sweet, slightly sour and prickling. The flavor is also rich on fruit, sharp from the wild fermentation and a little metallic. A little thin for the type - is that because of the low ABV. It is the worste Belgian Red Ale I've tried - but still a good beer.
