The Bruery Oude Tart

The Bruery Oude Tart is a Flanders Red Ale. I am pretty sure this is the 2012 vintage I am having at about 1 year of age. There is no bottle date, but I know the 2013 vintage has the year printed on the label. Anyway the beer… it’s fantastic. Tart and sour with complex notes of oak, leather, sour apple and sweet cherries. I feel like this is a bit too sour for the style, but I personally find that just fine. Others might be a bit turned of by how sour it is though, well either that or the near $20 price tag. In my opinion the beer inside a bottle from The Bruery is almost always worth the price though.
