Saint Dekkera Flanders Oud Bruin

9.6

2013 FDR3. Red-hued dark brunette body with bib bubbles, big textured, loose and frothy. Just dud spots left and moth wing scatter of pressed flower residual. Awesome sour cherry, baked persimmon, aged balsamic over steamed carrot, peppercorn, and toasty oak scents disperse, while chutney and pickled apricot take the spotlight, locked in a dark embrace. This may be the perfect sour. Smooth from oak, but sweet with vanillin and cola-malt, and sharpness from grapefruit, sour apricot, sweet potato sugar baked black. Blackened cinnamon-soaked apples, dried, brined bing cherry flavors, grilled lime, with autumnal spice and landscape sensibilities flowing smoothly in between. Astounding. — 5 years ago

These beers always make me take a step back. Red licorice, even strawberry twizzler on the nose with dried fig and balsamic notes. Palate is simultaneously rich fruit and tart rhubarb with superfine bubbles. No oak- just pure malt and soured character. Sublime w salty cheese and plum preserve. — 8 years ago

A real orange wine. Had the aromas of a Geuze and hints of an Belgian Oud Bruin ale underlying the wine. Really interesting but I think highly dependent on the food pairing. In this case it was unusual and excellent. — 6 years ago
