Commercial Description:
Bottle; Unfiltered.
In 2005 Xavier Vanneste, son of Mrs Véronique Maes, renovated and restarted the old brewery which had been in the family since 1856. He launched Brugse Zot, a new beer with a unique recipe. Today Brugse Zot is the only beer brewed in Bruges’ town centre!
The people of Bruges are known as "Brugse Zotten" (Bruges Fools), also known as "Brugse Jonckers"

33 cl. bottle. Clear gold, lots of effervescence produces a large, durable whtie head ad a thick lace. Fresh grainy aroma, light fruits add to the mix, and hints of spice become slowly apparent. Clean and dry, light body, and as noted, brightly effervescent. Light honey sweetness with the delicate balance of peppery hops is quite refreshing. Very drinkable, not an assertive beer, but it’s subtlety is intriguing.

On tap at Bierodrome, Kingsway, Holborn, London. Golden pour with fluffy white head. Fruity, hoppy aroma. Tastes fruity, citrus, peach, sweet. Rather thin but perfectly drinkable.

Pours a golden color with fuzzy off-white head and bits of yeast sediment floating around. Aroma is of belgian spice, sweet malt, candied sugar and clove. Taste is much the same with a sharp tannic finish. Meh.

On tap at ’t Brugs Beertje. Light mild fruity aroma with a bit of hops. Sweet but not overpowering. Standard Belgian ale aroma, pleasant but not outstanding. Slight bitter aroma, some oxidation. Light golden clear with thin lacing white head. Medium watery body with medium light carbonation. Starts light and quenching with a bit of sweet malt and a light bitter character. Musky grain and light hops. Decent little ale but nothing spectacular.

Bottle. OK, this may not be as good as some trappist beers, but for the most part it wasn’t bad. Needs to be tried at least once.
