About

Rodenbach Alexander is a Flemish sour ale from Roeselare, originally brewed in 1986 to mark the brewery's bicentenary. It embodies the house style through a precise blend: two-thirds aged ale matured in oak for 24 months, combined with one-third young beer infused with sour cherries. The interplay is masterful. Oak-aged character brings vanilla undertones and subtle complexity, while the younger portion delivers brightness and cherry fruit. Acidity is sharp yet refined, with hints of bitter orange and perfumed complexity. High carbonation lifts the palate, making this both approachable and rewarding—a textbook Flanders red that rewards attention.
