Verzet Super Boil is a Belgian sour brown ale from modern Belgian brewery, Verzet. As the name suggests, Super Boil is a variant of Verzet’s Oud Bruin where the wort is boiled for 16 hours instead of the usual 90 minutes. This gives the beer an enhanced caramel character. Oud Bruin is a traditional beer style from south-west Flanders region in Belgium, oak-aged to give the beer a complex, sour flavour.
Verzet Super Boil pours a ruby-brown colour, with the scent of red fruits and oak. The first sip explodes with flavour, the intense sourness giving way to complex flavours of oak, caramel and red fruits. Buy Verzet Super Boil for a unique, complex Belgian sour beer from a quirky microbrewery.

You know that you’ve got a beer to be reckoned with when it causes you to offer up expletives at the first taste.
Super Boil is brewed by Verzet in Belgium. It is their standard Oud Bruin (Old Brown), and is boiled for 16 hours rather than the normal 1.5 hours. The beer is then aged in wooden barrels for 300+ days. The resulting beer is a super smooth brown ale with hints of wood and vanilla. What’s not to like if you are fan or sour brown ales.
the beer itself pours a dark brown, almost mahogany, with good carbonation throughout the glass. The head is a soft brown and develops a creamy texture with large air bubbles after a while. It lasted to the bottom of the glass. Taste is of sourness, balsamic vinegar (in a good way) and dark fruit. More please!!

Not my favourite sour but still pleasant. Was hoping for a little more body as I found that after the initial malt/sour flavours it went flat flavour wise quickly. I would order again nevertheless.

Nice little sour beer in the Gueuze Lambic range, but quite expansive comparatively to its low alcohol level !
