hopIQ found 10 beers with the same floral and caramel character as Vache Folle ESB. Caramel malt forms the body of this red-amber ale in the English bitter tradition, with woody and herbal hop notes layered over it and a floral perfume in the nose. The bitterness is marked for the modest strength and carries into a dry finish that keeps the caramel from reading as sweet. Brewed since 2004 and available all year. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
