Fruitcake. Smooth, fruity, slightly sweet from the Flemish influence. Notes of malty toffee, cherries, hints of gingersnap. This is a wonderful winter warmer.

This is the best new Dogfish Head I've had in a long time. Usually I like that they try wild things, but this is a very good traditional brew.

Really interesting red ale. A mix between a sour and wine. Very enjoyable

Blended with Rodenbach’s Grand Cru from Germany, Dogfish mellows out the tart cherry note with caramel and toffee, then adds a hint of hops. A unique and refreshing American, not Flemish, Red Ale.

Tasted like cranberry or some other type of sour berry fruit. Wasn't a fan at all. Would not buy again. Only thing that was good about it was the 7% abv

Apparently not a beer but a “malt beverage with natural flavors”. So beer-ish.

BA day 6: this was disappointing. For a beer blended with Rodenbach it's too sweet for me. Some acidity would have welcome

Bottle said “red ale”. Was not prepared for the sourness. Should have researched more

A Flemish Red aged in casks. Tart, effervescent, and easy to drink. Almost hints of a Christmas Ale.

So sumac is supposed to be a citrus alternative and that's what this tastes like. It's Woody and mellow but sharp and gritty.

Flemish Sour meets a red ale with tart sumac and citrus peel. Really just adds sweet amber malt and hibiscus tea flavors to the sour that should have been left alone

Light for a red or brown ale. Has a little tartness and hints of cherry and Barrel aged qualities.
