⌂ > OEC Peat Smoked Brunneis

This Flanders Brown Ale is one of OEC's flagship sour beers.  Aged in a blend of different whiskey, bourbon & wine barrels.  This variation uses peat smoked malts to add a charred, smokey character to this already complex beer.  Garnet tinged chocolate brown pour.  Head is quick to fade.  Nose has notes of tobacco, leather, plum, smoke and wild cherries.  Acidity is pronounced but meets the dark fruit malt sweetness in the middle.  mild peat smoke character gives the beer another dimension and cuts the sweetness without letting the tart sour notes run wild.  Drink this one at 45-50 degrees for maxium depth.
