Sour news for Rodenbach? UPDATED 12:20 PM. Some bad news for the U.S. fans of Rodenbach, the brewer of the classic Flemish sour beers by the same name. A representative with Duvel USA, Rodenbach's most recent importer, confirms that the beer is no longer being brought into the USA. This decision was handed down from the Belgian-side and was not a decision made by the importer. At this time no new importer has been planned or announced. Rodenbach was the only brewery in Duvel USA's portfolio that was not owned in some fashion by Duvel Moortgat. Also of note, the Rodenbach USA website has been stripped down to a bare shell.
Brouwerij Rodenbach, of Roeselare, West-Vlaanderen, Belgium, dates back to the 1700s. In 1998 they were acquired by brewing conglomerate Palm Breweries, who made several changes including halting production of the Rodenbach Alexander label. After a number of years away from the United States (late '90s to early '00s), Rodenbach was relaunched by Duvel USA in mid-2005.
