Bandit Brewery, a small micro-brewery located in Toronto, has launched a new beer flavor. The new Le Duc Barrel-Aged Flanders Sour Red Ale is now available.
This new flavor is a part of the brand's barrel-aging program and was aged with Pinot Noir barrels and refermented with local sour cherries. The new flavor offers a robust and enigmatic aroma, with hints of red fruit, caramel, oak, and balsamic grapes. This deep-red hued ale has a seven percent alcohol content and is available at Bandit Brewery's retail store or online.
Bandit Brewery was inspired by the atmosphere of German beer gardens. The brewery offers a relaxing, inclusive, and comfortable environment inspired by such German establishments. It is located right in the heart of Toronto's Roncesvalles neighborhood
