Desperately looking for this beer in OKC for my girlfriend. The only other sour she's had is Rodenbach Original and I want to introduce her to something else on Valentine's Day. Anyone seen this in the metro lately?
Haven't seen any in quite a while. IMO the Love Child was way less balanced, hence a lot more tart than the Rodenbach, so are you sure she would like that? I do know there are a few of the different Rodenbach's at Freeman's though. Just a suggestion and not trying to run your business. Good luck.
Moore Liquor has 2011 and 2012 vintage and Caractere, I wanna give her something more tart than the Rodenbach just to kind of see how she feels about it.
FYI, Rodenbach Original is a blend of of 25% aged (sour) beer with 75% new (not sour) beer. Rodenbach Grand Cru is more sour and is a blend of 67% aged (sour) beer with 33% new (not sour) beer. The Vintage bottles you see are not blended, and thus can be even more sour, since they're 100% aged beer. Caractère Rouge is maybe my favorite sour beer distributed to Texas, as it has the perfect amount of sourness complemented with cherries, raspberries and cranberries. Definitely give them a try if you haven't already.
