From Foreign Shores – Part 1

There are numerous Rodenbach riffs from brewmaster Rudi Ghequire but one I just was made aware of is the Rodenbach Evolved Grand Cru at 6.0% and it has quite an age statement.

“Instead of the usual 18 months being matured in oak barrels, the base beer is a whopping 10 years! Then blended. Complex and mature. This Flemish red-brown mixed fermentation beer has the intense flavours of sour cherry, red fruit, balanced acidity and woody oak.”

A Serenade

If you are looking for a summer fruit explosion then look no further than Sangria Serenade from the Beachwood Blendery.  It is a “Belgian-style sour ale fermented and aged in oak barrels with Grenache grapes, peaches, strawberries, and citrus. Notes of jammy strawberry, citrus and raspberry shine in this balanced blend.”
