Kasteel Rouge is a unique blend of Kasteel Donker and macerated cherries. The ruby red colour, the rich foamy head and the sweet attack result in a specialty beer with a balanced taste and subtle hints of cherries. This fruity beer is everybody’s friend and makes a great aperitif on a sunny terrace. Are you ready for la vie en Rouge?

On tap at FUZE. Pours clear mahagony with a light pink head. Tons of maraschino cherry on the nose. Flavour has a fuck ton of maraschino cherries, like cough syrup. This would have a nice cherry expression if it weren't for the ridiculous amount of sugar. Christ.

Aroma of cherries. Flavour is sweet cherries, candy-like. Too much sweetness, no sourness at all so I am not a fan of this beer. Artificial flavour. However, seeing that this is both a Kasteel beer and a cherry beer, I was just a little surprised at how easily drinkable it was. Still, this is far from what I consider my kind of beer.

Аромат приятный, как будто нюхаешь свежий сок черешни. Цвет очень приятный, темно-красный. Во вкусе чувствуется сок вишни и немного солода. Несмотря на то что это фруктовое пиво ощущается сильная крепость. Послевкусие слишком концентрированное. А также не навязчивый привкус косточки вишни.

Bottle from Morrisons. Pours a dark red with a nice beige top. Big cherry aroma with fudge, almonds, sweet bread. Taste has a fruity, somewhat tart and syrupy cherry. A touch of almond and caramel. Somewhat boozy although my version was 7%. Smooth mouthfeel. Not bad, certainly quite tasty.

December 2010: Bottle, at the Manneke Pis, Tenerife, as Kasteel Rouge. Served with correct glass. ABV 8%. Dark red colour, nearly black in the glass. Low and short-lived pink head. Strong aroma of preserved cherries. Lovely flavour of preserved cherries and malts.
