Petrus RED Sgl

The historic blending wizards at Belgium’s Brouwerij De Brabandere are delivering an absolute masterclass in sweet and sour complexity with Petrus RED. This legendary liquid is a brilliant, highly sophisticated blend of their iconic foeder-aged Petrus Aged Pale sour ale, a rich dark base beer, and an incredibly generous infusion of real sour cherries. It pours a spectacular, deep ruby crimson with a tight, frothy pinkish head. On the nose, it hits you with a beautifully intense, aromatic payload of juicy dark cherries, plum skins, and a complex hint of vanilla oak. The palate is brilliantly full bodied yet light on its feet, seamlessly layering decadent, jammy fruit sweetness against a crisp, mouth-watering natural lactic acidity from the foeder wood. Finishing remarkably clean, balanced, and complex, it is a masterfully engineered treat built beautifully for rich chocolate desserts or a sharp blue cheese board.
