This traditional Flanders-style sour red ale was aged for 2.5 years in red wine barrels.
It is named in honor of a very energetic cardinal who used to fly around the outside of the brewery during the first half of 2011 when this beer was originally brewed.

Bottle thanks to MannyG. It pours deep red with a small yellow-white head. The nose is soft, wood, red berry, vanilla, jam and fruit compote. The taste is soft, fruity, red berry, mild acidity, jammy action, sherbet, wood and earth with a dry, lightly tart finish. Medium body and fine, prickly carbonation. Soft, fruity and pretty easy-going.

CBC Session 4. Hazy amber beer, small pale cream coloured head. Palate is light and crisp. Light floralness and sourness over a little thin malt cream. Light airy finish. Nice balance. Decent.

Underspoken and nice. Very soft palate and well-balanced in a day full of huge sours. Cloudy maroon with good head and lacing. Tart finish, light and well put together. Bottle thanks to CraftyCarl at Epic Sour Tasting.
