2008 Vintage Huge, undulating brown-cream head over fully opaque dark redbrown beer. Sourish-vinous nose, as Oud Bruin, lactic acid, ripe red fruit. Jumble of flavours: lactic acid, sharp metallic bitterness, woodstripper, fruity esters and vinous character. Medium bodied, very discreet alcoholburn; retronasal not an explosion, but a gradual full deployment of all the inherent flavours. Let’s be candid. My first idea was: "infected", immediately followed by "but they had full mazzel with it ". Gradually, I became convinced they had attempted ànd succeeded a classical Flemish Oud Bruin. If only. If only it weren’t for that never-away metallic bitterness, as well as the caption on the label, claiming to be brewed according to the Reinheitsgebot . Flämisches Alt for crying out loud???

Bottled. Clear brown color, big frothy off-white head. Aroma of caramel malt, some sugar. Quite sweet taste, molasses indeed, caramel malt, sugary. Bit off-balance.
