Brigand is a strong blonde beer that is re-fermented in the bottle. The pale blonde colour is eye-catching thanks to the use of unmalted wheat, pale malt and pils malt. Brigand has a slightly malty taste with accents of spices and hops in the finish.

Brewed since 1980. 20° plato.

Bière 75 cl. Une bière que j'ai beaucoup bue à une époque et qui a fini par me lasser. Cependant elle reste correcte, c'est une blonde typiquement belge et rafraîchissante, équilibrée,une valeur sûre. (M).

Bottle, 0.33l. Cloudy copper pour, one finger frothy off-white head, medium lasting. Good lacing on the glass. Yeasty, fruity nose, citruses, some floral notes, herbs, candy. Medium body, soft carbonation. Soft and smooth mouthfeel and texture, pleasantly fizzy, slight chewiness, goes down quite nicely. Usual taste and aroma, sweet, mild bitterness, subtle boozy touches. Aroma of yeast and spices, wheat, ripe fruits. Floral notes, earthy, minerals. Bready, dubtle alcohol, warming, nicely balanced. Mild sugary stickiness. Short to medium lasting finish, dry, mild boozy. Quite ordinary but tasty nonetheless.

Bottle online from Beerhouseshop.be. Pours an almost clear golden colour with a large thick foamy white head. Nice looking beer. Aromas of citrus, banana, cloves, bread and caramel. Taste is more citrus, cloves, toasty bread, caramel, brown sugar and a fair amount of peppery spice on the finish. Medium to full body, lively fizzy palate and slightly oil mouthfeel. A nice enough beer but it becomes too sweet the more i drink.

Smell- weak malt, Belgian yeast, citrus, orange. Foam- thin, caramel, sweet, large in mouth, Belgian notes, acidic tones. Head is large white color. Appearance- seems like a beer specific bottle cap. Clear orange color, some active carbonation. From- snifter Taste - sweet, caramel, malt, weak hops, weak citrus, all is quite muffled and with not too well-hidden alcohol. Not the worst Belgian I had, but not certainly not the best also.
