A Quick Trip To Belgium
After all the Stouts I’ve been reviewing I decided to take a quick trip to Belgium and try a Saison/Farmhouse Ale from De Proefbrouwerij:
This was a good side trip
I really like beers that are sour and a bit “funky” so I can usually depend on a Saison to help me get my fix. The De Proefbrouwerij had a nice mix of classic Farmhouse Ale and Belgian Dubbel. There was some sourness/funk backed up with a nice malt flavor. This is a tasty beer, not super complex, but good. Drinkability is good as well. If you want to try a “moderate” sour beer, this might be a great choice. I enjoyed it and now that I got my “funk fix” I’m ready to dive back into the Stouts.
