After tasting Goose Island's underperforming Sophia, I was not expecting much from their Matilda. But I like to try Belgians of all kinds and so gave this one a try. I was pleasantly surprised. It had a nice light smell of hops. It was nicely carbonated but did not have a foaming head that one would expect. The color was of rust. The high point was a distinct sour flavor and sharp aftertaste, both of which make a good beer to pair with food. This could turn into a regular beer.

Serving type: bottle
