Amerikaanse Amber Lager of Red Amber. Lichtzoetig in het begin met een hopbitterheid in de afdronk, een zachte, moutige smaak en tonen van karamel en grapefruit. Een ondergistend stoombier dat door zijn relatief lage alcohol percentage prima geschikt is als aperitief of als begeleider van Franse kazen en paté. Inmiddels is de Brutus een klassieker in de horeca.
Winnaar ‘Meest Gewaardeerde Bier van de Provincie Utrecht’ en Brons bij de Brussels Beer Challenge.

25 cl. draft @ ’t Antwaerps Bierhuyske. Interesting to see this on tap. Dark peach amber with a creamy white head. Nose is weak, mildly sweet, caramel malts, tad other malts. Taste is same sweetish biscuit thick caramel, light brown sugar taste at first as the other blond Maximus beers I have tried so far but that is only how it is upfront. It quickly turns to very bitter harsh hay, very bitter, lots of bitter grass, biscuit, really dries out the mouth. Malty & super-dry body. Decent to good + quite nice to drink overall but not astonishing.

330ml bottle bought at the excellent beer store De Bierkoning in Amsterdam. Frothy off-white head that laced well. Next to clear orange coloured body. Moderate aroma of bread and citrus. Malt-fruit flavours, caramel and citrus. Bittersweet fruits to the finish. Well rounded. Nice with fine drinkability (Cabin, MS Serenade 1, 25.07.2014).
