Poured from a bottle into a glass while soloing this bottle. Aroma is interesting with some nice dark fruit notes of prune, raisin, cherry and berry with some hints of plum. Some light caramel and toasted bread notes. Some medium light oak notes with faint bourbon and light port notes. Pours a slightly cloudy copper and burnt amber with a moderately sized, fairly thick, dark tan head that displays nice retention as it recedes to the edges. Faint lacing and small legs. Flavor is fairly acidic with a nice lactic character. Some light sweetness. Medium low malt notes of caramel, toffee and toasted bread with hints of darker malt. Some lighter fruit notes than in the aroma but still lots of cherries and berries with some prune and plum. Light oak notes with faint bourbon and port. Light alcohol spice. Medium light bitterness. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and medium low alcohol warmth. Overall, a nice beer with an interesting Flanders character to it. Nice acidity and fruit notes with some background malt and light barrel character.

Very pretty pink-red hue, very fruity nose, lots of cherry. Bracing acidity, cherry, but super sour, maybe a bit too much for me.
