Commercial Description:
Bruegel is an easy drinking soft and tasty amber ale. Thanks to the refermentation it offers more body, more head and more taste than most other American and Belgian Amber ales. It is brewed with Dutch barley and German hops. Although the bitterness is clearly present, it is not dominant.

Poured a cloudy amber with barely any head. Fruity, brown sugar, almost apple-cider like aroma.Smooth palate, light gassyness. Roasty maltiness in the finish.

Bottled, 330ml. Golden amber colour with dissipating head. Enjoyable light refreshing Belgian Ale. Hints of clove with a touch of corriander in the flavour, nicely light and pale for a hoy afternoon, a good refreshing beer with few challenges.

pours amber with minimal head and lacing. aroma of fruit and caramel, taste of fruit as well with some very slight bitterness. worth a try because it’s a little different but certainly not one of the best in breeds.

Brown amber poured into Leffe stem glass. Perfumy malt, slightly fruity. Kinda plain for a Belgian ale but still is tasty. Dark malty flavor that leaves slightly dry. Weird label looks like something out of the Prancing Pony in Lord of the Rings.

Bottle sampled with Stegosaurus. Pours amber with a white head. Aroma of sweet malts, citrus, caramel and yeast. Flavor is sweet, smooth, caramel, with a bitter finish. this was a let down for me.

Was careful to pour on this one. I know it’s am amber ale and all but the last one I had, Bornem, blew up on me. Pours amber maple colour with a mid sized head. Leaves along a roman trace of lacing. Nose is syrupy with some vineous nature to it. Taste again is syrupy, with some fruit and a very mellow, and pleasant hop charachter. Kind of chewy for an Amber Ale. Decent, though a slight offputting vinious taste does come and go. enjoyable though. You can feel the alchohol come back out.

Bottle. Golden with sparse white head. Toasty golden syrup aroma and toffee. Some yeasty/toffee in the mouth, bit of boiled sweet. Finish has touch of hop, more toffee. Not a great golden/amber beer, but ok.
