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.

Transparent ruby amber, nice three finger head, pleasant sizzle and mostly lasting. Aromas of yeast, nuts, bread, caramel and faint alcohol. Flavor is mostly sweet malts and yeast, finishing with a warm clean finish. Very light in the mouth. Faint lacing.

Bottle. Poured a clear, sparkling golden color with a large white head. Aroma of yeast and sourness. Possibly infected this beer had a tartness that wasn’t in itself bad, but detracted from an already bland flavor. Very mediocre.

Poured an Orange red amber, Off White head, Aroma was nothing special, Very Bitter, I may not be the best judge tried it after two tripels. Didn’t finish very well. Wouldn’t buy again.

Pours a deep orange color with a super thick, long lasting white head that I didn’t think would ever die down. Very heavy lacing. Notes of spice and not much more. Pretty bland taste with a slight bite. Nothing special here.

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.

This beer poured an amber color with a thin head and a little lacing on the glass. The aroma is yeasty and sweet. The taste was malty and sweet. The malts stick with you throught the aftertaste. Very nice beer. I would love to have this one again.

bottle from whole foods. if fat tire can be described as a clone of any beer, this is it. I want to taste them side-by-side. That said, aroma is malty, not much else. Low carbonation, very little head. medium/heavy body, lots of malty sweetness. very little bitterness present, this leaves a slightly over-sweet finish. eh.

Came as part of a variety pack. Light flavor, like a mass production beer with just a bit of flavor added. Pleasant aroma. Little aftertaste. Easy to drink.
