The Brewery: The Brasserie Roman is located in Oudenaarde, in Belgium. Founded in 1545 by Joos Roman. It is the oldest family brewery in Belgium. Their beers are brewed in the traditional way with attention to craftsmanship and a passion for beer that goes back nearly five centuries.

Origin: In 843, the Treaty of Verdun designated the river Schelt as the border between Flanders and the German Empire. A fort was built and finally taken by Benedictine Monks who converted the military fortifications into an abbey and started producing beer. The Abbey has been destroyed during the French Revolution, but the Roman brewery took over the know how and traditional beer recipe of Benedictines and launched several Abbey beers including this Ename.
