    Beer review #275: Rodenbach 2008 Vintage

    [​IMG]

    Man, I love these Rodenbach beers. Every time I crack an older bottle, I recognize that I'm drinking a little bit of history. So much went into making this beer, and then getting it to me to enjoy.

    [​IMG]

    These are so, so damn good. These were more of a revelation to me in 2013 than good IPAs or stouts. This vintage actually got the lowest score of the three I tried (2008, 2009, and Grand Cru), as it's the most vinegary, which affects both the nose and the feel. The flavor, however, is still pure delicate, complex goodness.



    Cheers!

    /envy That looks fantastic. All of it. /envy

    Well stayed home and worked from home all day, it appears I was one of the only one's to stay home today. :flushed:
    Oh well it didn't stop my 2 bosses from having me call in and justify decisions I made, which of course were still the correct decisions to make! LMAO!
    Anyway enjoying this fine brew from Victory!

    Haven't had that beer in maybe 4 or 5 years...should rectify that, because I remember it being great.

    Round two. The shortie cork really makes keeping this much, much easier...not that it lasted more than an hour. Too delicious! :slight_smile:

    Very jealous of all the Enjoy By pics; only one local bottle shop got any, to the best of my knowledge, and it's a bottle limit of 1 on reserves. I may get more after the put the remainder on the shelves; we'll see.

    Shoveled a bit of snow this morning from yesterday's snowpocalypse, then thought to myself, "Exactly why did I spend all this money on an AWD car again?" Tested it today: no problem whatsoever. Yeah, my driveway may look less pretty than the neighbors. As long as I can get in and out, screw it.

    ....did I mention I freaking love Rodenbach beers? :grinning:

    I've passed this by this year for no good reason other than I keep buying Dirt Wolf, and Schlafly TIPA, and Hop Ranch, and Nugget Nectar, etc. Finally gave in and picked some up. Good decision.
