More about Rodenbach Grand Cru

An extraordinary Flemish Red-Brown beer, that is the Rodenbach Grand Cru. A maturation in oak casks of at least 18 months gives this beer a fresh sour taste with a complicated fruitiness and an aftertaste like a Grand Cru wine.

The history of the PALM brewery dates back to 1525. It started with a hofstede (farm) that would later be called 'De Hoorn'. In 1747, the first 'official' signs of brewing activity are in Steenhuffel. De Hoorn Brewery is owned by Jean-Baptiste De Mesmaecker. His great-granddaughter married Arthur Van Roy in 1908
This Arthur Van Roy will give new impulses to beer production. During the rise of pilsner beers, he sticks to his traditional top-fermented beer, giving priority to the uniqueness of his regional beer, above the potential growth opportunities of pilsner beer.
In the First World War, the brewery was completely destroyed. Arthur Van Roy rebuilds them and makes them bigger. He believes that with his top-fermented beer he can also achieve success beyond the village limits. In 1929 he gives 'the Steenhuffel beer' the brand name: 'Speciale Palm', Speciale referring to the beer style 'Special Belge' and Palm as a sign of the victory of top fermentation beer over the increasingly popular lager.
In 1974 Jan Toye, nephew of Fred Van Roy, took over the management of the company. In 1975, the name of Brouwerij De Hoorn changed to Brouwerij Palm.
Since 1998, the Palm brewery has also owned the Rodenbach brewery and, since 2001, the De Gouden Boom brewery. In May 2016, the Dutch Bavaria Brouwerij Palm bought Belgian Craft Brewers.
