Description
Brewery Ommegang’s Rare Vos Amber Ale is styled after the smooth, drinkable beers popular in Belgian cafés. In fact, it’s named after a café just outside of Brussels: De Rare Vos, which translates as “The Sly Fox”. The café was made famous as a starting point for both pigeon and cycle races, thus the Rare Vos logo of a bicycle tire and a wing. Rare Vos pours a bright copper-amber hue, contrasting beautifully with a big, creamy white head. The nose offers orange blossoms and slight spice. On the palate, the caramel maltiness shines strongly but with little sweetness. The profile leans toward dry fruity (yeast-affiliated), herbaceous and spicy notes. This complex, medium-bodied beer has a smooth mid-palate and moderate dry finish. Well-balanced in all elements, it’s a mild, mellow and highly quaffable brew.
Enjoy as a session beer or with mussels, fries, and other pub foods.
