Elckerlijc

A clear, russet-red beer with normal carbonation, under a cap of fine, stable head. The nose has class: sweet-and-sour, delicate but distinct, with vinous tones and subtle caramel notes. On the palate, it is woody, tart, and fruity, with little acridity and slight astringency; the bitter aftertaste of old hops is balanced and tinged with cask wood.
