I've put off trying this brew for a long time. I was not a fan of sour ales in the past. I tried this one day in their back bar where it is on tap. I was very surprised, you should give it a go if you are every in Philly and try to find a bottle in your neck of the woods.
The ABV is 5.5 and the IBU rating is ??Style - Flanders Oud Bruin
Glass to use- Flute, Snifter, Tulip
Delivery 12oz Bottle
Can be cellared for long periods, under the proper conditions.
The Pour - Pours a dark brown color with a small cream head that disappears quickly. No lacing.
Aroma - Sour up front, then the fruits kicks in, a nice suprise.
Taste - Lots of friut, could mistake it for a cider but there is a sour taste to remind you that it is a sour brew.
Mouth Feel - Light carbonation, medium body.
Drinkable - Very interesting, I could drink this everyday but would rather have it as a treat.
This beer pairs well with anything on the Monk's menu. Or cheese.
This beer gets a Duper rating of A.
BeerAdvocate Rating =B+
Ratebeer Rating = NR
