We collaborated with the funky pagans of Holy Goat from Scotland to create this flanders red ale. We added fig leaves to give the unique sweet and sour flavours of this stvle a little twist, introducing flavours reminiscent of coconut and vanilla.

330ml bottle. Cloudy, dark amber to chestnut colour with small to average, creamy, half-way lasting, moderately lacing, off-white to beige head. Vinous fruity, mildly tangy and mildly funky aroma, caramel malty background, notes of blue grapes, some vanilla, dried fruit, fig, whiffs of black pepper. Taste is tart-ish, vinous fruity, slightly nutty, minimally tangy and funky, caramel malty basis without residual sweetness, minimally diluted hints of blue grapes, some coconut, dried fruit, raisin, fig, a touch of vanilla.
Creamy-watery texture, smooth and soft, simultaneously minimally astringent palate, medium to fine, dense, creamy, mildly prickly carbonation.
Nice composition, mild, neither overly rich nor intense, sadly a tad too watery and light bodied - OK.
