What is oud bruin?

Oud Bruin is a style of beer that originated in Flanders, Belgium. It is typically a dark brown beer with flavors that are sour, fruity, and malty. Oud Bruin, which translates to "old brown" in Dutch, is aged in oak barrels for an extended period of time, allowing for complex flavors to develop.

The beer gets its sourness from the use of wild yeast strains and bacteria during fermentation, similar to other Belgian sour ales such as Lambic. This results in a tart, acidic flavor profile that is balanced by the sweet maltiness of the beer.

Oud Bruin is often described as having notes of dark fruit, caramel, and oak, with a pleasant acidity that makes it a refreshing and unique beer to enjoy. It typically has a moderate alcohol content, ranging from 5-7% ABV.

Oud Bruin is a classic Belgian beer style that is enjoyed by beer enthusiasts around the world for its complex flavors and rich history.
