Lupulus is a blonde ale with an alcohol proof of 8,5 %, refermented in champagne bottles and in casks. The choice not to filter the beer, as well as not to pasteurize it ensures its taste and aromatic quality. The use of hops in considerable quantities, gives this liquid gold a freshness and an incomparable bouquet. Store this beer, as it ought to be, next to your beloved Grand-Cru and serve at a temperature between 8 and 12°C (46,4 and 53,6°F). You'll be delighted

75 cl. bottle @ home, bought @ Bert’s Bierhuis. Bottle shared with Rick. Hazy golden with a white head with some yeast specks. Floral aroma. Was expecting a bit more because the Brune was excellent but this one sort of disappointed me. Hoppy aftertaste.

better than expected. take as a base, the normal, oh so common belgian blonde beer, but add some complexity, you get lupulus. kinda even reminded me at de struise somehow, ( wel, being one of their not-waawish beers - wise ) very good indeed !

27th May 2012: On tap at the Lupulus brewery’s restaurant, "Les 3 Fourquets"; poured into one of their 25 cl chalices. I had two of them during my stay. Light blond/yellow body with a hazy look and a good solid head on top of each glass. Yeasty nose with not much else to report smell wise. The taste was refreshing and yeasty (like the aroma) with a fruity hop feel in the flavour: bitter but with some sweetness giving the beer a pleasant balance. Very different to most Belgian Tripels I’ve encounted but most enjoyable.

Draft at Cafe De La Gare, The Hague. Cloudy yellow pour with a medium white head. Aroma of wheat, citrus and yeast. Citrus, light fruit, and yeast in the flavour, some alcohol in the finish. Medium bitterness, body and carbonation.

On Tap@Cafe Belgique, Utrecht. Faded slightly murky gold with a mid range off-white head. Some fragrant grassy hop in the nose alongside some citrus, spice and yeast notes. Carbonation fairly lively. The elements present in the nose also showed up in the sweetish flavour with some pale malts. Dried out towards the finish. Perfectly drinkable and not without some appealing characteristics but somehow lacking a certain jenesaisquoi.
