Rodenbach Vintage is the unique result of selection by our Rodenbach brew masters, the barrel after two years of maturation has produced the best beer, "the best barrel of the year". The label is always the number of barrel stated and the year which marks the beginning of maturation.
Rodenbach Vintage is 100% matured old beer, resulting in superior Rodenbach Grand Cru. Its taste is complex, round, intense and refreshing. Typically, the apple tart fruitiness combined with caramel, wild honey and oak with a hint of vanilla, cherry and licorice. Its aroma has hints of caramel and oak, as well as notes of green apples mixed with honey and chocolate. The soft sour, fruity aftertaste is long and nicely balanced like a grand cru wine.

Bottle, vintage 2010. Finally rating this after having had at least 3 other bottles of this in various occasions. Pours deep brownish amber. Aroma is vinegary funk, acetone, wood. Body is medium, sweet balsamico, vinegary sour, strong carbonation, bitter almond, rich. Dry and, well, fresh. Great beer!

Zuur in het begin zoet en wat dikkig in de afdronk. Fijne nasmaak.

2015 bottle at a tasting, beers courtesy of Cuso. Loads of different fruity flavous, alcoholey, acetic. Easy drinking, easy digestible. Goood. 3,5. 13.12.2018. 2021 vintage, foeder 169, tap at Brewdog Tallinn. Considerably acetic, that being the main taste present, but it works, supported with med-high sour cherry, ample barnyard, general berryiness. Light sweetness. Thin body, medium carbonation. Overall - quite intense, assertive, not for everyone, but a pretty good one in small quantity. 4,0. 13.10.2023
