Duchesse De Bourgogne from Brouwerij Verhaeghe is the traditional Flemish red ale. This refreshing ale is matured in oak casks; smooth with a rich texture and interplay of passion fruit, and chocolate, and a long, dry and acidic finish.

After the first and secondary fermentation, the beer goes for maturation into the oak barrels for 18 months. The final product is a blend of younger 8 months old beer with 18 months old beer. The average age before being bottled is 12 months.

Duchesse de Bourgogne is an West-Flemish red brown ale of mixed fermentation. It is a sweet-fruity ale with a pleasant fresh aftertaste. This ale is brewed with roasted malts and with hops with a low bitterness. After the main fermentation and the lagering, it matures further for many months in oak casks.

The tannins in the oak give its fruity character. Duchesse de Bourgogne has a full, sweet and fresh taste : it is a ruby red jewel of 6% alc. vol., that best is served in a chalice-shaped glass.
