Barbãr Rouge from Brasserie Lefebvre is a fruity and surprising strong ale from Quenast, Wallonia. At 8% ABV, this honey-flavoured beer draws on traditions rooted in the brewery's family history. The beer balances notes of honey, spices and aromatic plants against a sturdy malt foundation.

On the palate, it is both tart and fruity, with cherry as the dominant character. The light purple head signals the complexity to come. A full-bodied, characterful beer that rewards curiosity.
