Rookop is a brown, top-fermented ale formerly brewed by the St.-Joris brewery in the village of Reningelst until 1963. We were asked to bring the most famous beer of this former brewery back to life and made it a dubbel-style ale brewed with Admiral and Golding hops, fruity and sweet with some chocolate notes.
Our Rookop was brewed for the first time on May 5, 2012.

Bottle(RBESG, Degustation grande, Moncada): Amber coloured, almost clear, stable off-white head; caramelly and fruity nose with very small traces of herbal hops; light to moderate sweetish-bitter flavour, relatively light bodied; slightly lingering caramelly-ffuity finish with some hops in the very end. O.K.; but surely not excitingβ¦

Bottle at RBESG 2014 Grand Tasting. It pours hazy amber-brown with a small beige head. The nose is sweet red berry, caramel, candy, caramel and brown sugar. The taste is caramel, candy, cola, wood, booze, dirt and leather with a hot, alcohol finish. Medium body, fine carbonation and sticky mouth-feel. Hot, sweet and pretty one-dimensional.
