This is my first ever Oud Bruin and I picked it up at The Four Firkin. I've had a few examples of Flanders Red Ales but never their Brown version.
appearance: Brown to Reddish
aroma: is a bit leathery, funky, cherry and grape.
flavor: is like a sweet grape popsicle. Some cherry in there as well. A little bit of acid in the back of the throat with some vinegar.
mouthfeel: a bit thin with low carbonation
overall: much sweeter then expected. I really liked it, but I think I prefer the Flanders Reds mo betta. Not quite enough acid for my taste.
I think that they must back sweeten this beer, otherwise I can't figure out how they could possibly make this beer so sweet. Almost too sweet for my taste. A really good beer that I'd probably buy again, but I'd like to try some other examples of the style so that I have something to compare it to.
