This is an Flanders Bruin style, with cherries. Similar but not exactly like Liefmans Kriek-Brut.
A: Pours a dark brown/ruby red color. A one finger beige head forms with good retention. Light lace is left behind.
S: A sour, almost maraschino cherry aroma. Toffee and toasted malts. Which makes for an interesting, if not particularly complex mixture.
T: Cherry and acidic sourness up front. A touch vinegar like, but very light in that regard. Malts come in, with toffee and light sweetness. Toasted and baked bread, mixed with the pretty pungent acidity up front, and it is all really well balanced and enjoyable.
M/O: A medium body with crisp carbonation. A bit prickly even. The acidity also gives the perfect amount of puckering pull that I just love. It is just daring me to have another. Really easy and enjoyable to drink all around.
This is a pretty damn good kriek bruin IMO. While not perfect for the style, as they didn't mature this in wood barrels, and call it a "young bruin." Whatever, great to see a brewery tackle something like this. Its not the perfect clone of Liefmans, but still incredibly moreish, enjoyable, and unique for the Houston area. So yeah, I really like this a lot.
