Liefmans Cuvee Brut 6.0%ABV
Belgium Flemish Sour Brown aged in oak with
cherries
Brouwerij Liefmans, Belgium
A: Pours a slightly
opaque ruby red amber color with a small pink toned head.
S: Smells of big tart
cherries, light wood notes, hints of backing spice and brown sugar. Hops
are present but delicate and this is all about the acid, fruit, and malt.
T: Rich body with bold
dark malts and lots of tart fruits, (cherry, cranberry, hints of raspberry)
M: Medium in body with
moderate carbonation and a great effervescence texture that finishes tart and
moderately dry.
O: This is a great
celebration beer, but also pairs with food tremendously well- think, dark
chocolate, creamy desserts that want to be accompanied by cherries, great with
cheese plates and incredible with foie and duck preparations. Also a
great introductory sour due to price point, impact and moderate sourness
balanced with fruit.
