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"

Bottle. Golden with a small head. Crisp bitterness prevails that lingers for a while. Reasonable but not one I would try again.

Rather plain Belgian, somewhat more wheaty than expected. Overall it is fair with a clear yellow body and a medium sized head with lacing.

Bottle. Clear golden body with a medium creamy white head. Yeasty and bit spicy aroma with dry fruity notes. Light hoppy as well. Mild taste of fresh fruit and Belgian yeast. Medium bodied. Thirst quenching brew.

I walked by a dry-cleaners at 3:00 in the morning and there was a sign on the door that said, "Sorry, We Are Closed." You don’t need to be sorry. It’s 3:00 in the morning, and you’re a dry-cleaner... it would be ridiculous for me to expect you to be open.

December 2008 bottle. Pours yellow with a huge white head. Malty aroma’s linger through this sweet/sour beer. Impression of syrupy grains maybe dried bananapeel. Spicy aftertaste.

The aroma is fruity and metallic with malt, spice, and yeast. The appearance is golden with a large head. The flavor has bananas, cloves, malt, spice, and grass. The palate is thin. Overall an interesting but average beer.

Light orange to gold in color, slightly cloudy, thin foam head, sweet crisp wheaty flavor, slightly bitter finish on the palate, aroma is slightly yeasty, never been a big fan of the blonde ale, trippel is better but not bad nonetheless... Like a wheat beer with a pilsner finish
