Rodenbach Vintage is a Belgian beer in the Flemish red-brown sour ale tradition. This 75cl beer has 7% ABV and is presented in a cork beer bottle, bringing a distinctive large-format option to the Rodenbach range.
Mixed fermented and matured for two years in large oak casks, Rodenbach Vintage is made entirely from matured “old beer,” with no young beer blended in. Its barrel ageing brings oak and vanilla flavours, accompanied by light licorice and wood-like spice.
The palate centres on a tart, sour backbone of apple, cherry and red berries. Caramel and honey-like malt notes provide sweetness and balance, while a subtle wine-like acidity gives this premium beer a layered finish.
Serve Rodenbach Vintage at 6–8°C. Its sweet-sour profile pairs well with duck, pork and veal, as well as aged cheeses, blue cheese and dishes with cherry or plum sauces. It has received the World Beer Awards title of World’s Best – Flanders Red Ale and a Silver Medal at the Brussels Beer Challenge.
