Flanders Brown Ale-Oud Bruin 4.5 º

Kasteel Brouwerij Vanhonsebrouck

Bacchus Vlaams Oud Bruin offers a sophisticated sensory experience characteristic of a classic Oud Bruin. This deep reddish-brown ale presents an inviting bouquet of roasted chestnuts, caramel, and toffee, underpinned by rich notes of dried fruits like raisins and black cherries. On the palate, a delicate initial sweetness from the specialty malts is elegantly countered by a refreshing, sharp acidity that creates a playful sweet-and-sour harmony. Distinctive vinous qualities lead into a crisp, dry finish, making this lower-alcohol expression exceptionally drinkable while maintaining the sophisticated, aged character expected of the style.

Appearance. Dark reddish-brown with a brilliant clarity. Topped by a persistent light tan head with moderate lacing.

Aroma. Moderate intensity featuring rich caramel, toffee, and toasted malt. Pronounced esters of dried fruit, particularly raisins and black cherries, are complemented by a soft, lactic sourness and a vinous, aged character.

Taste. A complex sweet-and-sour profile begins with flavors of burnt sugar and dark fruit. A refreshing, mild acidity emerges mid-palate, balancing the malt-forward sweetness. Low bitterness allows the winey, plum-like notes to shine through to a clean, lingering dry finish.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with moderate carbonation that provides a gentle prickle on the tongue. Smooth texture with no noticeable alcohol warmth or astringency.
