Bruxellensis is refermented for several months with a wild Brettanomyces yeast originated in Brussels. Amber with copper reflections, its fruity attack (pineapple, red fruits) is supported by hop flavours in dry hopping, and by complex, almost animal notes of old leather. It then develops a rich malty note with biscuit accents and a persistent fruity/candied flavour. Its finale is dry and bitter, its character is unique.

Hazy amber colour with lasting head. Aroma and flavour are very strong with Brett funk. Dry and clean with touches of dried fruits.

Golden copper with active big head. Lovely Brett funky socks, right up front, that lingers out into bitterness, with a oaky finish. All over mildly sweet malt base. Satisfying.

Bottle, huge thanks to Raven ppl! Misty apricot/orange body, white head. Brett immediately hits in the aroma, but the funkiness edges slightly towards toothrot. The taste, however, makes up for it, very smooth and creamy, the Brett strongly in control, carrying notes of oranges as well. Very good stuff that I understand the big score for!

Bottle at the Poechenellekelder. Super Bretty taste and aroma. Also usual De La Senne citrus hoppiness but some tropical stuff too. Lightly leathery, nice bubbliness. Great stuff.
