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.

Bottled. Hazy amber colour. Not much of aroma, except from a tiny sourness. The flavour brings a porous maltiness and is a little yeasty. Finishes with a milky palate feel.

Bottle. Pours a clear bubbly orange-amber with a large lasting fizzy white head. Nice lacing. Sweet aroma of yeast, fruit, caramel malt, spices and a mild sourness. Flavour follows the aroma and surprises with a nice mild bitter finish. Fizzy and dry, it goes down smooth. Thin bodied. Pretty good.

Bottle Malty sweet aroma, and it tastes malty sweet, too. Some caramel. Watery and boring.

It happens so often that you drink a beer and don’t care for it and it rates low by others. Save your cash on this one.

Bottle. Large, creany/smooth ivory head, fair lacing, transparent, carbonated, and an orange hue. Malty, fruity and spicy aroma. Malty and caramel flavor. Mouthfeel was a little tingly. Medium bodied beer. Worth a try.

Pours reddish brown with a tall foamy tan head. This is VERY carbonated. Nose has some sugary notes along with some light spices and a flowery hint. The taste is thinner than the aroma would suggest. Some very faint spice and sugar hints as it leans towards a floral taste. Almost tasteless finish. Average to below average Belgian ale.

Yeasty, bubblegum-like aroma, slightly sweet. Thick, foamy beige head with floating sediment, hazy dark orange pour. One dimensional flavor -mainly yeast with some bubblegum notes - just like the aroma. Has a bit of spiced fruit flavor as well. Decent mouthfeel. Finish is a bit dry and leathery. Had much better from Belgium.

Bottled(330ml). –Shared with Doggythedog at the Hopdevil in Zagreb
So far the worst Belgian beer from Hopdevil. Orange/amber coloured, medium white head, stinky stale caramel nose. Taste is similar to below average slovenian homebrew beers. So far the worst Belgian beer from Hopdevil.
