  • One for the books! Thanks @belgiantaster for the beautiful picture and the lovely words! ❤ Cuvée Sofie Plum (8% ABV) - Alvinne (Belgium) Cuvée Sofie is an oak aged beer from Belgian craft brewery Alvinne. This beer is the oaked version of Phi. Phi is a blond beer with a sour character due to Alvinne's house yeast, Morpheus. Cuvée Sofie ages on Bordeaux barrels (St-Emelion, Margeaux,Pomerol), giving it a wine like impression. Cuvee Sofie Plum is made by adding fresh Plums after the aging on oak Foeders from Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Cuvée Sofie Plum pours cloudy amber with an off white short lasting head, Morpheus yeast is clearly visible in the bottle. Medium carbonation. In the nose fruits, sour berries, wood and scent of white wine vinegar. In the mouth fruit think fresh plums, dried berries, sour grapes and wood. The oak aging is wonderful. There's a light sweet balsamic vinegar like impression. Hint of caramel and white berries. Vinous with subtle impression of red wine. The first sip is a bit tart. The more you get used to the acidic flavor the more the sweet fruits come forward. After a few sips the sour and sweetness come in balance, the ending is sweet. Remarkable evolution of flavors. The plums keep developing and last for a long time. Aftertaste is dry with a lots of plum, oak and a few sour grapes. The beer is medium sour and has a light to medium sweetness. The flavors in this beer keep developing. I suggest giving this beer a little time and enjoy it slowly. This is a magnificent, round and well balanced sour beer. Plums are present from beginning and last a long time. Fans of sour beers will like this a lot. If you're not into sour beer this one could get you hooked on fruit sour beers. Cheers! #brouwerijalvinne #alvinne #daretogowild #flemishsourale #barrelagedbeer #slowbeer #morpheusyeast #belgiantaster

  • LE VERT MONT @florentladeyn You can now find our beers at another top restaurant just across the border in Boeschepe, France. Florent is one of France's current most fascinating chefs. Next to Le Vert Mont, he also owns another restaurant Bloempot and brewpub/restaurant Bierbuik - Bloemeke in Lille where you can find our beers. Definitely worth a visit 😉 #brouwerijalvinne #alvinne #levertmont #florentladeyn #bloempot #bierbuik #daretogowild #morpheusyeast #flemishsourale #oudbruin #barrelagedbeer #slowbeer

  • That time of the year again. We started picking Sloeberries from the Blackthorn plant. It will be the 6th year we are picking and macerating these beautiful and tasteful local berries. The first years (2013, 2014, 2015 & 2016) we macerated these on our Red Wine BA Wild West but the 2017 and 2018 harvest was put on Foeder Aged Cuvée Sofie, all versions were fermented with our wild house yeast culture Morpheus. Last year we had over 130kg, thanks to some volunteers as well. Let's hope it will be a good harvest again this year, the beer will be released beginning 2020. If you're bored you can always pick and bring in some berries, you will be awarded with the right amount of beers and gratitude 😎👌 #brouwerijalvinne #alvinne #daretogowild #flemishsourale #barrelagedbeer #slowbeer #morpheusyeast

  • We bottled 170 bottles of Cuvée Sofie Quince 8% in 75cl, it’s so good that we had to bottle a few big ones to share with friends 😎 Very limited availability, buy it if you find it and share the pleasure✌️ This is the Foeder aged version of our Blond Flemish Sour Ale ‘Phi’. Fermented with our own wild house yeast culture ‘Morpheus’ and later macerated with 150kg fresh Quince for over 3 months. Afterwards the beer was refermented in the bottle for 8 months before the release! #brouwerijalvinne #alvinne #daretogowild #morpheusyeast #flemishsourale #barrelagedbeer #slowbeer
