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.

Golden of color with a white head. An aroma of sweets, candis, spice and weak smoky hints. A flavor of malt and caramel - metallic hints?

Neat color (amber / orange) and head on this one. However, a bit light and over carbonated for the sour citrus flavor behind it. Can catch you off guard (kinda like expecting sprite and unknowingly sipping a bottle of carbonated water). If you don’t like Belgians, this one definitely won’t win you over. If you like Belgians, its on par with an average beer.

Bought this in a Flanders, Belgium 6pk. ( global beer network promotion) Amber color, white fizzy head. Slight malt, a little breadyish. This is one of the better ones in the pack.
