Reddy-brown in color with a white creamy head. Raspberry and tart aroma. Sweet and tart raspberry flavor with a real fruit taste. Moderate carbonation. |
Description: |
Bacchus Oud Bruin has surprisingly fruity and flowery aromas and the taste is reminiscent of wine. Its sourness, with a hint of balsamic vinegar, is less pronounced than that of other Flemish red-brown beers. It’s very refreshing with a pleasant aftertaste. This beer impresses through both its sourness and the slight touch of caramel brought by the use of roast malt. Bacchus Oud Bruin is the mother beer on which the Bacchus Frambozenbier and the Bacchus Kriekenbier are based. |
