Born in the heart of the High Ardennes, La RoncHe reimagines the NEIPA style in true THArée fashion: intense, fresh and full of character.
No heavy sweetness or smoothie-like texture — this Ardenne NEIPA is juicy, expressive and, thanks to a subtle infusion of young Douglas fir shoots, it retains the bright, forest-inspired freshness typical of our region.
Its generous hop profile reveals stone fruit, citrus and delicate resinous notes, supported by a more pronounced bitterness than classic NEIPAs. This clean, balanced bitterness evokes the wild nature of the Ronce Valley and the rugged beauty of the Ardennes landscapes surrounding our brewery.
With a smooth body, vibrant aromas and a lively finish, La RoncHe is the perfect Belgian NEIPA for trail lovers, outdoor adventurers and fans of modern craft beer from the Ardennes.
A NEIPA… with punch.
A true Ardenne NEIPA, brewed by La THArée.

La RoncHe is one of the rare NEIPAs refermented in the bottle, giving it a living character and unique aromatic complexity.
