Description
Wij zijn jonge ambitieuze brouwers die trots zijn op ‘onze’ stad Amersfoort. Wij brouwen gedurfde speciaalbieren die je zintuigen prikkelen. Hierbij nemen we vaak de nodige risico’s, zoals bier gerijpt op vaten. Dit bier rijpt veel langer dan gebruikelijk en de uitkomst is verbluffend. We willen de bierdrinker en onszelf blijven uitdagen. Iets wat niet lijkt te kunnen, doen we toch. Aan de andere kant hebben we veel respect voor ambacht en traditie. Daarin gaan we dan ook weer “all the way”.
Rock City Beers startte in 2014 als brouwerijhuurder. De naam van de brouwerij is een verwijzing naar de bijnaam van de stad Amersfoort: de Keistad. In 2015 werd er al ongeveer 460 hectoliter geproduceerd. In februari 2016 nam de brouwerij de licentie van Phoenix over van UDB Export. In december 2017 wordt de naam gewijzigd van Rock City Beers naar Rock City Brewing. In 2018 opent de brouwerij een brewpub in Amersfoort. Op vrijdag 2 januari 2018 werd de brouwerij officieel geopend.

Thuis uit een 44cl blik. Licht troebel, goud-oranje kleur. Snel verdwijnend schuim. Smaak en aroma goed, lekker hoppig, aardige bitterheid, maar ook citrus. Overigens is mijn blik 6,5%.

(Draught at Arendsnest, Amsterdam, 9 Aug 2023) Cloudy yellow colour with frothy, white head. Fruity, hoppy nose with notes of citrus, peaches, pineapple, guava and pine needles. Fruity, hoppy taste with citrus, peaches, tropical fruit, pine needles, soft bready malt and a balanced citric/piney bitterness. Almost full body, with a slight sweetness. Fruity and juicy, with a light alcohol touch and a generous hop presence. Very nice.

Bottle from AH Jan Linders. Color: Very dark ruby, almost black. Light brown head. Aroma: Bourbon, notes of dark chocolate and roasted malt. Taste: Bourbon, vanilla, boozy, light hints of green apple, some umami, some dark chocolate and roasted malt. Over medium body, below average carbonation. Smooth, bit creamy and also bit thin body. Ok overall.

can, hoptimall deluxe calendar #7 Very subtle and subdued aroma, I get a little malts and some flowery hops, some herbal hops, nothing else. super weak aroma for a 10% alc. beer. also weak for a belgian. However, whatever little aroma there is, seems balanced and of great quality. i think the herbal notes might be pine. Flavor is malty, pine and grapefruity hoppy, the malts are solid and also have flowery notes and sweet flowery notes, sort of like a tripel, althoguh this one seems very refined and clean for a tripel. alc. can be sensed indirectly but is hidden, not *that* much flavor, just a very strong base beer with no off-flavors and then a mild but full bodied if that makes sense, hoppy balance to it. Very underplayed, if you gave a few pints of this to some unsuspecting friend, that friend would get a lot more drunk than the friend would've expected. Nothing bad with this one, also, nothing particularly interesting or good. Tastes like high quality for sure.
