The Bruges city beer of old, potent and bitter-sweet BRUGGE Tripel has a beautiful golden-blond colour and a firm, rocky head, leaving a trail of Bruges lace on the glass. The aroma has a typical touch of smoked phenolic, and the flavour is bitter, rich and creamy.

The secret of the BRUGGE Tripel city beer is the unique composition of the “gruut” blend of herbs and spices used to enrich its flavour and aroma. In Bruges, anyone brewing beer was obliged to purchase “gruut” from the city’s herbs and spices shop, known as the “Gruuthuse”. Jan van Brugge and his descendents, who later changed their name to Van Gruuthuse, had a monopoly on the sale of Bruges “gruut” that lasted late into the 16th century. At the same time, taxes were levied to the Count of Flanders. In BRUGGE Tripel, this medieval tradition continues.

Klare goldene Farbe; sehr kompakte, mächtige und äußerst stabile Schaumkrone. In der Nase krâutrig, würzig, weinartig und leicht säuerlich, Mandarinen. Im Geschmack viel Frucht (Zitrus- und Helles Steinobst), Honig, leicht würzig-kräutrig, deutliche Süße, wirkt leichter als es tatsächlich ist. Insgesamt nur mäßig überzeugend.

bottled. A hazy orange color. Actually I thought it was pretty decent for a brugge beer not made in brugge.

25.07.25 Aromat przyprawowy drożdżowy, ciekawy estrowy owocowy. Klarowne, złociste, biała piana obfita Smak przyprawowy, owocowy, wytrawny ale słodyczy trochę jest Nagazowanie duże, musujące, treść średnia. alkohol czuć, ale nie jest źle. ogólnie piwo trippel w swojej postaci trochę za bardzo rozpuszczalnikowe, ale nie jest źle

Aroma of malts, yeast, fruits, hops. Flavour is medium fruity sweetness with some bitterness in the aftertaste. Rather typical Tripel, decent but not a great example of the style.

Аромат отличный и по стилю. Много специй, как будто даже какие то травы для лекарства, но немного, пшеничный солод, немного алкоголя и общая большая травянистость. Цвет золотой, пена очень стойкая и пышная, белая. Вкус продолжение аромата. Много специй, снова немного пшеницы и травянистость. Правда появилось немного алкоголя. Но все равно в целом очень зашло, один из лучших по стилю.

Bottle 0,75ltr: The unsurpassed city beer of the people of Bruges, don’t make me laugh. This is an pretty commercial brew from Palm, its got the traditional colour clear orange. More sweet of taste than bitter, but this brew is still good for een starting beerlover. Go to Halve Maan brewery in Bruges their beers are brewed in the city of Bruges, this one not.
