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.

The bottle says amber ale on it but when poured its a cloudy golden color (lost in translation). Strong apple aroma. Large head that diminishes quickly. Dry apple taste. A very interesting beer.

EHopper (427) - Minnesota, USA - OCT 27, 2008
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.

RedSox2004 (749) - Pacific Palisades, California, USA - JUN 17, 2011
Clear amber with a generous head and nice lace. Yeast and toasted malt aromas. Malt sweetness up front, with yeast, butter and gentle grassy hops notes. Medium body, lots of carbonation, slightly watery mouthfeel, and a yeasty/malty finish.

330 ml bottle from LCBO (part of gift pack). Pours a clear orange gold with moderate, slightly off-white head. Aroma of banana, caramel and cirtus. Taste is a little blander with fruit, caramel and light citrus. Somewhat watery. Nothing special.
