European Breweries History: Palm Brewery

When the Palm Brewery took a majority stake in the Rodenbach Brewery in Summer 1998, it declared that it would take full responsibility for this exceptional brewery. Rodenbach is the only brewery in the world making a brown-sour beer through the 'mixed fermentation' process, the so called Flemish Red Ale. Essential in this process is the 18 to 24 months maturation period into 300 huge oak barrels of 100 to 600 HL each. During this maturation, the organic acids are transformed into esters, this gives the Rodenbach beer the aroma and taste profile of wine. Palm has always been dedicated to preserving the unique, authentic Belgian beer culture.
