Zuur poured a rich brown color with a thumb width, off white head.  The aroma is dominated by sour cherries, a little wood, malty and a few vinegar notes.  The body is short, with a malted middle, sour cherries on the outside, and notes of apple cider vinegar.  The finish is short and quick, a blast or tartness.  Overall, this is another wonderful sour ale from Ommegang.  It is simple, the sour is restrained, the malt is balanced perfectly and the sour cherries are perfect.   

The ultimate resource for beer drinkers!
