About

Rodenbach Classic defines the Flemish red-brown ale category. Brewed in Roeselare since 1821, this benchmark beer blends young ale with beer aged two years in oak casks. The result is a refined interplay of tart fruitiness and subtle roasted character, with notes of red berries and a crisp, dry finish. Mixed fermentation—the brewery's signature method—creates the beer's distinctive sour edge and depth. This technique, developed to extend shelf life centuries ago, remains central to Rodenbach's identity. At 5.2% ABV, Classic is refreshing and food-friendly, equally at home as an aperitif or alongside hearty fare.
