Brouwerij Roman
The brewery works in Mater, a village within Oudenaarde in the Flemish Ardennes, and traces its roots to 1545. Back then bailiff Joos Roman ran the coaching inn De Clocke on the trade route between Germany and France, with a farm, mill, malt house and brewhouse. Brewing became the main business only over later generations. The family still owns the company, now run by Carlo and Lode as the fourteenth generation. Pils carried the house after the war; Louis Roman later turned it toward top-fermented specialty ales such as Sloeber, Ename and Gentse Strop.

How we measure this
Two thresholds are at work here:
- The signature list shows notes that recur in at least 6% of this brewery's beers. A low bar — enough to flag a pattern, not high enough to call it an exclusive trait.
- The peer comparison below shows only notes where this brewery's coverage differs from similar breweries by at least 20 percentage points. A higher bar — enough to call a real difference, not a nudge.
A note can appear on the signature list without appearing in the peer comparison: it recurs here, but similar breweries do the same thing.
