Old Ale 10 º 49 IBU

Ramses Bier

Ramses Bier Roggestout offers a sophisticated sensory experience that aligns with the classic Old Ale style while celebrating historical Dutch brewing. The addition of rye introduces a distinctive peppery spice and a viscous, chewy mouthfeel that carries deep malt layers of molasses, treacle, and dark toffee. Single-hopped with UK Fuggles, the nose reveals subtle earthy and woody notes that intertwine with rich esters of raisin and dried plum. A comforting alcohol warmth develops across the palate, leading into a vinous, complex finish that suggests well-integrated oxidation and a lingering, sweet malt depth.

Appearance. Deep reddish-brown to near black (SRM 18–35) with moderate clarity. Pours with a low to moderate, cream-colored to light tan head with average retention.

Aroma. Moderate to high intensity featuring a rich malt-sweet backbone of molasses, toffee, and dark caramel. Earthy and woody hop character from UK Fuggles is present but subtle. Pronounced fruity esters of raisin and fig are balanced by a spicy rye note and a light vinous quality suggestive of maturation.

Taste. Initial impression is malty and luscious, offering flavors of dark fruit, treacle, and nuttiness. The peppery rye provides a spicy counterpoint to the malt sweetness. Moderate bitterness is provided by UK Fuggles, contributing an earthy finish. Low chocolate notes may be present, transitioning into a lingering, sweet, and slightly alcoholic aftertaste with subtle oxidative complexity.

Mouthfeel. Medium-full to full body with a chewy, velvety texture enhanced by the rye content. Carbonation is low to moderate. A noticeable, well-integrated alcohol warmth is present, providing a smooth and comforting sensation without harshness.
