93 Flanders Ned Ale, Grumpy Troll Brewery (WI). 6.2% ABV (4/09) %{Brewpub}
Aromas of sour cherry jam, honeyed sourdough raisin toast and buttery praline have an appetizing yeasty edge and follow through on a round, vibrant entry to a dryish medium-to-full body with great depth and a touch of polished wood and new leather. Finishes with a hint of cocoa and hints of cherry yogurt, orange rind and pepper. A tangy, clean food friendly sour ale that is a spot-on example and good introduction to the style. Pair with rabbit or roasted duck and Brussels sprouts.
