WITTEKERKE ROSÉ (pronounced like the man’s name ‘Jose’, rhymes on ‘all the way’) is the newest coolest beer created by Brouwerij Bavik in Bavikhove Belgium. A genuine extension of the famous Wittekerke brand. What is it?

It is a blend of regular Wittekerke, the best Belgian wheat beer, known for its fruity aroma and taste, together with 10 % of the purest Raspberry fruit. This combination is made in heaven, beer-heaven at the Bavik brewery in Belgium. You have never tasted such unique combination of refreshing sweetness and exploding fruitiness. Talk about a perfectly balanced beer! Wipe the cocktails and the margarita’s off the table, baby.

ROSÉ is a French word defining the exquisite color of ‘almost red’, but not blood red, rather pinky. Some French Champagnes are also identified with the surname Rosé, when the color is not real golden but broken with a dash of red.

The slender ice-cold ROSÉ can, with the sensual image of the long legged lady, is very appealing and stands out on the dance-floor under fluorescent light. The alcohol content is very low, only 4.3 percent by volume, which allows for a long night of joy, action and fun. The designers in Belgium did a great job. Look at the handy six-pack. Isn’t that selling it self off the shelves? The price is remarkable attractive and shouldn’t withhold anybody for loading up on this tasty beauty. Bars, disco’s and restaurants have plenty of leeway to make a great margin. Yes, it is available in quarter barrel kegs as well, and the tap handle has a great contemporary design, don’t you agree?

ROSÉ was launched in Belgium during the summer of 2004, and two remarkable things happened. First, people who had never drank beer before because they didn’t like the hoppy bitter taste, wine drinkers for example, and let’s admit it, mostly women, showed a real interest. ‘Now, that’s a beer I like!” is a frequent reaction, and the wine glass is often replaced by the Fruity Pink.

Second, young folks growing out of their sweet soda habits, venturing into the ‘adult beverages’, are very pleasantly surprised by the full round taste of the ROSÉ, and consider it their beer of choice. Especially the cool looking can, ice cold, becomes an instant hit in the clubs, and at inside or outside parties. Wherever young people have fun and mingle.

For those of you, who never heard about the brand Wittekerke, let me tell you that Wittekerke was voted 2 years in a row the best Belgian wheat beer.
Wittekerke as a name is a fictitious name for a typical Flemish village,
like we find many villages in Flanders with a name ending on KERKE (church).
Witte means white in English, thus the translation of the name is white church.
