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"

thornecb (2959) - Marblehead, Massachusetts, USA - SEP 10, 2006
Hazy amber pour into a tulip. Frothy white micro head leaves slight lacing as it recedes with a medium pace. Fruity lemon and yeast aromas. Fizzy and full sweet lemon upfront with a crisp bitter hop finish.

Beer2000 (2918) - Kristiansand, NORWAY - APR 30, 2009
330 ml bottle. Slightly hazy golden body with a small white head. Aroma is light fruity and spicy. The flavor is light, refreshing malty with a spicy and fruity touch. Medium body and rather short finish. Drinkable but a bit anonymous and ordinary for my liking.

lithy (2913) - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA - JAN 6, 2009
Yellow with tons of big suspended floaties. Thin white head. Spicy malty aroma. Taste is spicy, fruity a bit of lemon zest and musty.

Strykzone (2906) - Wood River, Illinois, USA - NOV 19, 2008
The most noticeable thing about this pour is the huge and numerous pieces of suspended yeast. It is a golden beer with a white head that, while not large, has good retention. The aroma is yeast and spice. Flavor is peppery spice, soapy, earthy, grainy, buttery. Plenty of zest lights up the tongue. The yeast remained suspended throughout the glass never settling at all.

mjs (2865) - Helsinki, FINLAND - MAY 20, 2008
(Draught on 2008-05-19, rated from memory) Golden and cloudy. Quite big white head. Yeasty and bit malty nose. Yeast and some sweetness in taste.
