Petrus Oud Bruin: Review


Ale aged in oak casks – 20 months

5.5% abv
11.2oz bottle
$14.99 a four pack

Appearance: almost black body with deep mahogany highlights.  Nice off white head.  Good lacing on the glass. 

Aroma: light sour oak cask

Flavors and Mouthfeel: the ale has a cola like feel, with some tart notes of apple and cherry, there is a nice oaky presence.  The carbonation is fine and has a fizzy feel on the palate.

My Strength Rating: 4.5 

To the Point: just an okay ale.  The flavors somewhat muted and muddled together.
