RODENBACH

RODENBACH is the unique “Flanders Red-Brown Beer”, recognised as a traditional local product. Mixed main fermentation and maturation in oak casks (“foeders”) give it the same sweet-sour flavour and complex fruitiness as wine. 

RODENBACH consists of 3/4 young beer and 1/4 beer matured two years in oak. RODENBACH is highly refreshing and appetising: the perfect apéritif!
