Acetic nose, woody, to style. Pale amber-brown and hazy. Tart, woody, some cherry notes, mild acetic, but mostly lactic. Not as complex as the best examples but I like it.

On tap at Bottlecraft - Little Italy, pours a cloudy dark amber/burgundy with a small white head. Aroma has notes of red wine, balsamic, Worcestershire sauce, and some tart red fruits. Flavour is quite tart and moderately acidic, with tart red fruits, balsamic, Worcestershire sauce, and a touch of red wine. Tart, balsamic, vinous finish. Good but not pinnacle oud bruin.

Capped 500 from The Davis Beer Shoppe. Pours clear, but quite dark, ruddy brown with a biege tan head. Aroma is that slightly tart Oud Bruin thing. Med body or better. It's dry and tart, but rather approachable. Flavor has a lot of grape, some dark fruit, and a sourish malt. Pretty much nails the style. Good one.
