Tavernertavern presents: Ommegang Ommegedon!


Funny, strange beer. I can’t taste but the faintest of bretts. It’s there, but very much in the background. At the same time, the one flavor that comes to mind is "rum." Particularly, a well aged bottle of fine Cuban Rum - something along the lines of Matusalem or Havana Club Black Label. Pours opaque golden with very little head. Very dry flavor with some strange tannin-like flavors dancing around.

2. Dunno about Dallas
http://ratebeer.com or http://beeradvocate.com would help...

I know in Houston there are many places, same for Austin

Dallas I cannot help you...

But its worth it, as long as its been kept well.

3. I love the Ommegang beers, but haven't tried that one yet.

I finally, after years of searching after I moved out of NYC, found a place that carries Ommegang beer. It's about 90 miles away, but worth the trip.
