Petrus Bordeaux
De Brabandere

 

6 oz pour on tap at Lures Bar & Grille. I agree with previous reviewers that this is a confusing beer. It's sweet - too sweet - but also is clearly a Flanders Red and does have red wine tannins. Not my favorite but interesting to try.

 

Sweet cola taste. No Bordeaux barrel presence. Bland and insipid. Don’t be fooled, this is nothing like a traditional Oud Bruin. Thanks to Joe for sharing!

 

 

 

A - Pours a Deep dark Mahogany colour with an off White head that retains well and laces.
S - Big woody oak vinous aromas. Something you would expect from a Rodenbach
T- Awesome. So well balanced and retains the vinous character with complex red wine and woos flavours, but not overpowering. The Red wine barrel adds something magical.
M - Medium body and full-ish carbonation as you would expect from a beer of this ilk.
O - Well if you are looking for a Flanders Oud Bruin that delivers then look no further than this beer. It ticks all the boxes of a great vinous brew like a FOB. In fact it is a magnificent beer in its own right and one of my favourite in the last 5 years.

 

It's hard to call it beer, some kind of semi-sweet carbonated wine.
Color, foam like Pepsi Cola. I have
conflicting impressions.
Tasteful, aromatic bouquet is more suitable for connoisseurs of dessert wines, sparkling, rosé champagne.
