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"

SilkTork (4736) - Rochester, Kent, United Kingdom, WALES - JAN 3, 2007
Bottle - unfiltered. A dry pale ale with spice notes from the yeast. Moderate carbonation. So dry this could be a strong lager. The interest comes from the yeast notes. The malt is too clean to be interesting, and the hops are lager hops and quite dull. Faint citric notes. Less than average beer.

FROTHINGSLOSH (3386) - GREENSBURG, Pennsylvania, USA - SEP 4, 2007
Sampled from an 11.2 oz brown bottle this beer poured a clear pale golden color with a medium sized white head. The aroma was dry, musty and lightly tangy. The flavor was dryish, lightly tangy, a bit bready and had hints of citrus. Overall fairly bland an uninspired.

SudsMcDuff (3361) - .....Manchester United.........., Texas, USA - APR 4, 2009
UPDATED: MAR 29, 2010 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. .. . gold on the pour.. . big wispy head, lacing is killer .. . muddled and more muddled .. pretty damn sweet .. . a good Belgian but very middle of the road ..

KM (250) - Tromsø, NORWAY - MAR 24, 2012
Bottle. Pale golden body, with lots of particles in it. Be very careful when pouring. Light yeastu sourish aroma. Light sweet, soft and sourish flavour. A little too sweet finish. (At home, 24.03.2012)

peermac (56) - Kristiansand, NORWAY - MAR 28, 2011
Lettdrikkelig, litt mye karbonering. Bra balanse, men litt for lite å balansere! Trenger mere fylde. Kort smak.

Have never been too impressed by this brewery. Not bad but it lacks aroma in my opinion.
