COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
After the Applebocq and the Redbocq, the Brasserie du Bocq is pleased to announce the birth of the Agrumbocq … The idea for the Agrumbocq arose first of all in the mind of our master brewer. Once again, the starting point is our white beer made by top fermentation to which mandarin juice and the natural aromas of grapefruit and lime are added. Its cloudy appearance, its natural pink grapefruit colour, its fine slightly pinkish head and its pleasantly fruity fragrance are certainly going to delight the most delicate palates. A perfect balance is achieved through the sweet and acid taste of the citrus fruit and the slight bitterness that it releases. It is defined as a very light and refreshing beer. You are advised to drink it very cool. It is ideal after sport! It has barely 3% alcohol volume. The Agrumbocq is currently available in kegs and 25-cl bottles.

yngwie (9175) - Kristiansand, NORWAY - JUN 1, 2011
Bottle. An unclear, pale yellow beer with a small, dense, white head. The aroma is mostly grapefruity, with some notes of cedar, orange and spices. Flavor wise it’s too sweetish grapefruity, but there’s also some nice spiced and orangey notes. Medium body with a pleasant carbonation. Well, quite pleasant in some ways, but I doubt I’d buy more of even if it was available in my town. 110601
