Kasteel Rouge
Launched in 2007 as a strong cherry beer, Kasteel Rouge is brewed from Kasteel Donker with Oblacinska cherries. The nose offers cherries and Belgian cuberdon candy over hints of caramel, toffee and malt from the Donker base. The body is full and velvety, a subtle acidity keeps the cherry sweetness in check, and the finish is dry. Ruby red, 8 % ABV, served at 6 °C.
