Jupiler

Brewed by Brasserie Piedboeuf (InBev)
Style: Pale Lager
Jupille-sur-Meuse, Belgium

Mmmm, yum, all lagered up candi, funk and alcohol in a glass or can conveniently, whilst in Belgium, served like soda in a vending machine. Picked one up as it was late and I was drawn. Worth a photo, not worth purchasing!
Aroma is like being at the circus at the point you inhale your warm fairy floss candi. Douse this in citric acid and pour some freshly extracted sweaty sock concentrate in and it’s all lovely beer, oh so so lovely, ugh!!! Poured a typically bright medium gold, typically donned by a soapy white pad and left some typical lace down the schooner. Rock-candi, fizz whizz (orange variety) and champagne carbonation make it bounce across the tongue. Finish is the same, sweet, artificial, nasty. Layers the mouth in some even more nasty sugar compounds, Ahhhh!. Woeful, lacks any inkling of malt or hops. I purchased this in desperation after arriving in Bruxelles late at night and back at our hostel I was suffering, but, I wasn’t tired enough to notice this was drain-pour, hangover material. Steel ar’twat’ was like heaven to this. Scheitzenhausen!

Just bad, the worst beer in Holland, except for Barvaria perhaps, tastes like toe jam.

This beer was brewed specifically for Michael Oberdorf. The tragedy is that he will never have it.

garbage. a metallic pale lager. WTF is 25 centileter anyways. 5.2abv is alright. this is passing.

Can. Clear, golden. Thin aroma, mouthfeel and palate. A very un-necessary beer.

Can. Clear, pale golden, with a decent, dense white head. Weak aroma with some grain and hops. Malty flavor with hops and some alcohol-notes. Thin body and a weak, lightly hopped finish. (060709)

One of the beers I grew up on..as a kid growing up in Belgium (Army brat) we used to drink this at the IC Club on SHAPE..some of you readers might know where I’m talkin’ about...it used to cost us 11 francs a beer during happy hour...can’t beat that...many a fond mermory of playin’ quarters in Jeffs garage when his mom was gone..god beer that everyone in Belgium knows and love....
