ABV
5.5%
A Belgian Flanders Oud Bruin from Brouwerij Van Steenberge, blended from three-year-old aged ale and freshly brewed triple ale, then rested for six months in oak casks. A high-fermented lager is blended in before bottling, bringing the strength to 5.5% ABV and adding balancing sweetness. The nose shows dark cherry, toffee, banana, coriander, woody oak and subtle Brett character. The palate has caramel, brown sugar, sweet dark cherry, plum, tartness, balsamic-like acidity, honey, floral tones, grape skin, figs, dates and Sauternes-like honeyed richness. The finish balances residual sweetness with gentle oak tannins and vanilla, with red fruit and toffee fading to a clean, dry close.
