Description
De Halve Maan Brewing Company is a family brewery in the heart of Bruges, Belgium. The brewery was restarted and refined by Veronique Maes in 2005. With unique beer recipe on the work, the brewery was renamed as ‘Brugse Zot’. Brugse Zot beer became the only beer that is personally brewed in the town center of Bruges. The Brugse Zot and Straffe Hendrik beers are two of the brewery’s finest types of beers. Straffe Hendrik beer is filled with bitter ale while the Brugse Zot is rich in fruity flavor along with different types of malts and hoppy aromas.

(Bottle) Dark brown colour with frothy, beige head. Malty, spicy nose with dark bread, caramel, dried fruit, raisins, prunes, spices and a touch of yeast. Malty, spicy taste with notes of dark bread, caramel, prunes, raisins, brown sugar, chocolate and a balanced spicy bitterness in the finish. More than medium body, with a certain sweetness. Tasty and well balanced dubbel. Nice one.

Draft. A murky gold. Not bad, not great, a pretty average (though it was billed as a tripel?)

Color miel claro, turbia, espuma blanco hueso, ligeramente amarillenta, abundante, que aunque reduce rápido se recupera moviendo la copa. Aroma funky, levadura, bretanomices, hierba seca, granero, fruta de hueso, especias. En boca tiene buen cuerpo, es seca, posee cierta robustez alcohólica, aunque bien oculta, buen amargor herbal, matices en boca muy acordes con perfil aromático, notas de levadura, cava, especias, albaricoque, lúpulo, final amargo, seco, algo cálido y laaaargo... Que delicia, una buena cerveza , disfrutable y bien hecha.
