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"

One of the most heavily sedimented ales I’ve ever had, there are large clumps floating in this. The aroma is of citrus and yeast/bread. The flavor is of citrus and slightly spicy. This was pretty good but the sediment was so heavy that it sort of overwhelmed the flavor with bread in the finish, not a bad thing for a German beer, but sort of odd for a Belgian ale, although not necessarily a bad thing, just different.

I’m surprised to see the low score on this website. It’s one of my favorite Belgian Ales. It’s fresh, quite clear, and has a great CO2 mouthfeel. Not a really extreme beer, but it’s very balanced.

JanLaursen (1078) - Copenhagen, DENMARK - JUN 8, 2011
Clear, light golden beer with a bubbly and fluffy white head. Spicy aromas of pepper and yeasty notes of citrus plus a little coriander. Slightly sparkling mouth feel, where the sweet malt, light citrus and some peppery notes dominate. Relative light body. Long finish, almost without bitterness.

AshtonMcCobb (931) - Edinburgh, SCOTLAND - MAY 18, 2011
33cl bottle. Pours golden with a light brown towards th head. There is a generous head and plenty of bubbles. The nose has orange and a grassiness. The taste has more orange and maybe lemon sherbet with some herbs on the end. The palate has medium structure, a creamy texture and a refreshing zingy finish. Overall, a good beer!
