On the 30th of March 2018, we brewed a fully barley malt beer wort, with pilsner, pale ale, cara and roasted chocolate malt. We left this beer to age for almost two years on oak barrels. Prior to bottling, we blended the beer with some young lambik. Nocturne is our take on a Vlaams Oud Bruin – a Vlaams-Brabants Oud Bruin if you will. This beer is fully spontaneously fermented and all natural without any addition of caramel sweetener or colouring. (yet, #notlambic)
White muselet instead of grey, oops :)

A 3F nonbic, for a change, fun stuff. Looks a slightly unpleasant murky brown, smells a bit earthy sour, but the taste is pretty damn good. Sour, oaky, some light sweetness, and very earthy. Missing some complexity, but nice.
