VanderGhinste Roodbruin

Authentic South-West Flemish Red-Brown Beer

VanderGhinste Roodbruin was originally called “ouden tripel” in 1892 and was the first beer that Omer Vander Ghinste brought to the market. It is a South-West Flemish red-brown beer of mixed fermentation that is typical of this region.

Barley malt, wheat, caramel malt, hops, and water are used as the basic ingredients for VanderGhinste Roodbruin . These are used to make a top-fermented beer.

By blending this beer with spontaneously fermented beer, at least 18 months old, matured in oak barrels (= foeders), one obtains this specific South-West Flemish Red-Brown beer .

The typical taste is characterized by a balanced blend of the fruitiness of top fermentation with the gentle acidity of spontaneous fermentation, and has a refreshing and distinctly thirst-quenching finish .

The name of this beer changed several times in the brewery’s history, but in 2012, the name from 1892 was reinstated. For the look and feel of the label, a poster from the early 1920s was used.
