Gypsy Tart Flemish-Style Brown Ale

Rustic crown of beige-brown over purple brown bubble-stubble. Plummy-apricot nose exhibits pleasant cherry-vinaigrette and grape-y-orange interplay. sour bread-rye, sarsaparilla, hair removal wax, filberts and dried apricot. Sour cherries and crab apple cross fed on gunpowder. Dried, black violet petals, and blood orange with grapefruit peel, black lime, dried, oak-aged vinegar soaked cranberries rubber pencil shavings and saffron pistils.

Usually I steer well clear of tart or sour ale. This was a gift and so I tried it. I like it! Lots of other flavors to balance the tartness, and the tartness is also subdued.
