About
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.

Draught @8e PINT Utrechtse Bierbrouwers Festival, shared with Benzai and Caesar, dark brown with limited white bubbles, aroma is very sweet, raisins, heavy on the BA. Taste is very sweet, mega alcoholic, raisins, brown sugar, candy, a couple of sips from this taster is more then enough, it's a bit over the top,

Bottle @ home. Murky peachy pinkish/beige color. White head with little retention. Aroma's: initially and from the bottle: quite dank hops. Once poured into the glass it's mainly peach, with light citrus. Retronasal it's dank hops, fruity (a bit artificial), sourish. Flavor is light sweet (fruit), light bitter. Light bodied. Caramellish and moderate bitter finish. A bit weird but quite nice.
