Poured a 330ml brown bottle into a tulip. A one finger tan head on a very dark clear reddish brown. Excellent head retention. Lots of patchy lacing.
Sour fruit notes in the nose. The taste follows the nose. Slight wood. Very subdued cherry. Just enough tartness to balance the the initial sweetness. Nicely balanced by a mild but tart finish. The whole is greater than the sum of the parts.
Very smooth and leaning sweet for a Flemish Red. Medium body and carbonation. Well worth a try.

At my lady Pamela's house; bottled and slightly chilled, 330mL in a pint glass. From the Huron Church Rd. LCBO in nearby Windsor. Best before April 24/27. My first beer from the Kortrijk, Belgium brewery. With Sundae the cat...

Dark brown reddish colour with a creamy head.
Aroma: fermented fruits, tart, sour red berries, some plums, some malt. Complex vinous aroma.
Taste: sour berries, fermented fruits, sweet raspberry, hint of plums and raisins. Dry, but balanced. Red vinegar.

Pours a dark reddish brown with fluffy tan head.
Smell is tart and a bit mineral with a hint of sweetness. Notes of cherries, oak, raspberries and molasses.
Taste is tart wih a substantial sweetness. Notes of cherries, raspberries, oak, plums and molasses.
Mouthfeel is medium and smooth with effervescent carbonation.
Overall, a very nice Flemish red, on the sweeter side for sure.
