Petrus Aged Pale Ale is an oak-aged Belgian wild pale ale. Brewer's Notes: Petrus Aged Pale is a 100% beer from our foeders. Michael Jackson, the beer hunter, chose the name in the late 1990s – and he was the first to sell this beer in his beer clubs. Today, it is still the reference for sour beers in the US. Petrus Aged Pale has won multiple gold medals in beer competitions worldwide. Moreover, ever since the start of the brewery, the beer has been used as a blending-beer with other beers to give them fresh, slightly sour flavors and aromas.

Tasting notes
20260504: I drank the first of 2 four-packs I purchased at Kahn's in Indy. Yes, it is still complex. I combines sweet apple, crab apple, apple vinegar and a subtle oakey smokiness. It combines bitter and tartness. I wanted a little more tartness.
Rating = 5.5 glasses
202202: Wow! Much better than I remembered. Tart and vinegary w/ a hint of oak. Alex said it packed a wallop. I want more.
Rating: 6 and thought about going higher.
200905: An interesting twist on a Belgian Pale Ale. Aging in oak gives the beer a touch of apple and lemon. Good but not great. I wanted more kick.
Old Rating: 4 glasses
