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 at De Republiek Brugge. Hazy red pink colour lasting pink head. Artificial red fruit aroma. More of the same in the mouth. Raspberry jam flavour. Light cherry flavour. But it is like the jam in a Victoria sponge cake. Bit too sweet. Fun but ultimately it's some fruit syrup with a light wheat beer behind it.

Golden yellow with giant off-white head. Lemon, biscuit malt, and fresh hay aroma. Mildly sweet lemon, biscuit malt, and mild bitter/astringent hay flavor. Good body.
