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?

Bottiglia. Il naso riconosce sentori di amarena. La finezza olfattiva è elevata e la durata è buona. Il manto birroso superiore ha una scarsa tenuta. La grandezza delle bollicine è a grana fine. Il colore è scuro impenetrabile. Il corpo è rotondo. L'amaro è poco presente. La forza gustativa è elevata e la durata è sufficiente. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano di facile beva. Il retrogusto è di decente intensità. Al palato arrivano note di miele, pane cotto di recente e amarena.

Limenka 0,5 kupljena u požeškom Kauflandu. Višnja dominira i okusom i mirisom tek nakon što se pivo malo ugrije pojavljuju se sladne note. Odličan balans kiseline od višnje i slatkoće.

330ml bottle from Asda @ 7% ABV. Deep cherry red in colour, with a tight, off-white, head with pink flecks. Sweet, black cherry and almond aroma. Flavour was also sweet upfront, with even more cherry character, before some malty depth leading to a finish where the fruit was more tart. A bit of a novelty, but pleasant enough.

This 50 cl can came from some shop in Bruges on our visit there late last summer. I can’t remember which one. Sitting on the front porch on a an unseasonably pleasant afternoon, I open the can and tilt it into a Delirium tulip glass. The sight is a cranberry colored body with a thin head of pinkish white foam. The nose leans toward cherry as best I can tell. A drink supports that. I get slightly sourish cherries, sweet otherwise, with perhaps a bit of grain. It reminds me of Kriek although I am limited in my sampling of those. With the 8% abv and the cherry flavor I am more reminded of the fruit-flavored malt liquors I have tasted through the years. Not a great beer but enjoyable in its own way.
