Description
The Rodenbach family established the brewery in 1821 in the West Flemish town of Roeselare. The beer owes it unique quality and masterful character to the oak casks in which it matures. Rodenbach is the archetypical Flemish red-brown ale from West Flanders. Recognised as a regional product, it is probably the most award-winning beer in the world.

Bottle @ De Heeren van Liedekercke. Vintage 1998. Clear reddish brown with an off-white head. Aroma is sweet, malty, caramel, dried fruit, port and oxidated. Flavor is quite sweet and light acidic. Dry and light acidic finish. Went really well with my stoofvlees. I kept a little in the glass for most of the evening just to have a smell once in a while :o) 20072012 --- Had the 2016 version twice on tap, and it’s really nice as well. Much more aggressive and fruity compared to the 1998 version.

Kolor różowy w smaku trochę czuć octu, ale głownie jest kwaśne, w smaku są również wiśnie i żurawina.

Bottle at home, huge thanks to Eszter for this. Pours dark ruby with beige head. Nose is tart fruits, basement aromas, alogether very much like a red wine. In taste it’s tart fruity, grapes mainly, acidic and a bit sour. Closes with long lasting fruity tartness, has light to medium body and average carbo. This is a good beer for sure, but not really my cup of tea.

Cherry jolly rancher flavoured beer. There is no semblance that rodenbach and their Flemish Reds were anywhere near this beer. Something for my wife to drink.
