Appearance is a lovely dark but clear body as expected from an old bruin, head nothing to write home about.
Aroma is sour mash, which is expected and really quite appealing if this is your style of beer. Not too vinegary, a light sweetness in the nose.
Taste is superb, but I do like this style. Sweet on the palette, and similarly on the aftertaste. Malty but not overbearingly so, a winner for me.
Feel is very good also, a nice touch of effervescence really kicks that sweetness around your mouth.
Overall, very good and a very sensible brew. One for the connoisseur.

Amber copper color with a thin head.
Vinegary aroma with predominant notes of red wine, acetic acid, grapes, oak and husk.
Flavor with notes of red wine, green apples, mild vinegar, oak, lemon, cranberry, slightly toast, lactic acid and Brett. Dry aftertaste with an elegant acetic note.
Light towards medium body with natural carbonation of tiny bubbles.
This felt like a true old recipe of a Flanders Oud Bruin with a husky and vinegary aroma mixing acetic wine, red fruits, husk and wood notes. Women translated. This is well underrated.
