Flanders Brown Ale/Oud Bruin

About Flanders Brown Ale/Oud Bruin

Flanders Brown Ales range from reddish-brown to brown in color. Their aroma is a blend of fruitiness and rich malty fragrances. Ales of this kind have a gentle malty flavor and are dominated instead by a complex mixture of dark fruits like raisins, plums and cherries. A Flanders Brown Ale should be noticeably sour, although this will become more pronounced as its aging period is increased. The combination of sweet and sour sensations is very refreshing. Beers of this kind are medium in body, low in carbonation, and sweet in finish.
