In het begin van de vorige eeuw werd de naam 'ODNAR' voor het eerst in gebruik genomen. Een duidelijke verwijzing naar de stad Oudenaarde waar de brouwerij Liefmans al sinds jaar en dag gevestigd is op de oostelijke oever van de Schelde.

Odnar werd gebrouwen tot 2003 en kan beschouwd worden als de 'export' van de bruine bieren. Wat ‘export’ was tegenover ‘pils’, was ‘Odnar’ tegenover ‘Liefmans Speciaal Oudenaards’. Een bier in een 33cl fles en iets lichter in alcohol.

Earthy cherry, sweet rum-raisins and tart citric, cobwebbed sourdough aroma. Cloudy red, low creamy brown head. Wonderfull complexity - cheese, cherry, rye, dust, wood. Citric aftertaste, sparkly mouthfeel.

Ruby-brown colour. Sweet & sour, slightly nutty aroma. Slightly tart body, with some toffeeish malt. Quite refreshing with the late tartness. Fine session brew.

Dark amber to brown color; poor head. Refreshing Oud Bruin, balanced and with some sweetness to balance the (low) sourness, but not exceptional.

The aroma is slightly sour with notes of prunes and wood. The color is an unclear brown and it has a small disappearing head. The flavor is sweet and sour with notes of wood and prunes. A nice flemish sour ale.

Redbrown color, short head. Aroma is of oak wood, dusty, only slightly fruity. Taste is more typical flemish sour ale, tart cherries. But this one is not as fruity as some others, but has a more woody note.

Yellow-brown head, nearly immediately reduced to slim rim. Dark brown beer with clear reddish shine. Very woody nose with tannine, ironoxide, vinous. Taste is sweetish-sour: good maltbase, beautiful lactic acid, some ironoxide again and very clearly Maillard. Retronasal sour fruity as kiwi, gooseberry or unripe peach. Light bodied. Superbly thirst-quenching. This is a relic of a bygone age - both bottle (perfectly illegal with no ABV, no sell-by date, painted- on logo) and beer. Liefmans used to produce to kinds of beer, the 6° and the 8°. This last made up the Goudenband. The lighter was the Odnar. Somewhere in between came the "IJzerenband" (=Ironband), and a sweetened version called "Abdij van Maegdendaele". The Odnar, somehow survived but is exceedingly rare.

Bottled. Chestnut brown. Acidic and balsamic. Clean, rather hard maltiness, notes of black cherries and a caramel malt finish. Very pleasant.
