Brouwerij RODENBACH is treating beer lovers to the Limited Edition:

RODENBACH Vintage 2009

RODENBACH is marketing RODENBACH Vintage 2009 Limited Edition in September. This RODENBACH Vintage 2009, with a 7% alcohol volume, is the unique result of the creativity of the passionate RODENBACH brewers. This exceptional FLEMISH RED BROWN beer of mixed fermentation owes its unique character to maturation in hand-made oak casks, some of which are more than 150 years old.

”This exclusive RODENBACH Vintage 2009 matured in cask number 145 for more than two years, resulting in a superior RODENBACH with a copper glow. Its taste is complex, full, punchy and refreshing all at the same time. It has a characteristic apple-sour fruitiness combined with caramel, wild honey and oak,” according to Peter Buelens, Public Relations Manager at RODENBACH. ”The aroma consists of touches of caramel and green apples mixed with oak. The soft-sour, fruity aftertaste is long and nicely balanced.”
