Monk’s Café Flemish Sour Red Ale
3.06 out of 5.00 | Drinkable

Single, 11.2 fl oz bottle from Michael’s in Marietta, GA, USA. I think that this is an oldish bottle, but no matter, age will probably treat this well.

Poured into the Terrapin snifter, this sits in the glass a still as a mill pond, looking like a slightly reddish colored Coke. Zero head and lace. Looks suspiciously like a LARGE brandy in that glass!

Pretty much a classic example of the style. Strong acidic/vinegar notes along with a thinnish body and an almost completely flat mouthfeel.

Taste is less aggressive than the nose would suggest.

As I expected – not a style that does much for me, but this is at least authentic.
