Beer 365- #38 Kasteel Rouge
I'm not much for fruit beers but this one is different, at least for me.
This Belgian ale is brewed with cherries then they add a little cherry juice for good measure.
As you would expect this ale has a distinct reddish hue and an aroma of fresh cherries. The flavor is rich and dense with again cherry being the predominant flavor, hints of cinnamon and spice peak through so that the cherry isn't overwhelming. The beer is very refreshing and my personal choice when I serve spicy ribs off the grill. (8% ABV)
