The Lost Abbey Red Poppy Ale Flanders Red Ale Style

Just released, and my favorite version of this by far. Much better balance of fruit, funk and sour, without as much sweetness as prior years. Should do nicely in the cellar.

2015. Less fruit and more funk and acidity than other recent years. By far the best and most complex version of this I've had in a long time.

Beautiful sour. High carbonation, notes of cherry and amazing complex finish.

Also this.

The Lost Abbey Red Poppy Ale. Great beer. Even better undergrad.

The Lost Abbey Red Poppy Ale. This is in the pantheon of great Flemish reds. Head like a root beer float and murky. Extremely well balanced, and the poppy seeds are noticeable on the lingering finish.

Mouth puckering.

A nice sour cheery beer. I'd rate it higher but it's not my favorite style of beer.
