330ml bottle from Vanuxeem. Was hoping to pair this with the Rodenbach crisps I picked up but you had to buy a 6-pack to get the crisps free. Oh well. Good prominent cherry character, nice acetic sourness. Good balance. As per my 2018 rating.

Keg @ t’ Brugs Beertje, Bruges. Pours clear pinkish red, small white head. Aroma is vinous with sharp cherries. Taste presents a complex layered vinous, oaky, aged Rodenbach character complemented wonderfully with tart sour cherries emerging from within. Some balsamic elements working with the sweetness of the cherries. Very good, accomplished beer.

Draught @ Brouwerij Rodenbach. Pours a deep mahogany with a reddish hint, good off-white head. Aroma of moderate assorted red berries, cherries, deep fruity wild flanders. Flavour profile continues, quite a balanced, character, moderate fruity depth, cherries, red berries, sweetish tart flanders wild elements, light tangy moments, gentle bitterness, nicely drinkable lacking the sharpness of some vintage rodenbachs. Nice.
