|
Brugs is a white beer from Bruges, Belgium, based on a traditional Brabant brew. The name comes from Dutch "Brugs tarwebier", which means "wheat beer of Bruges". Brugs was first brewed in Bruges, capital of West-Flanders. Every bottle of Brugs bears the "Golden Tree" (Gouden Boom), harking back to the trophy traditionally awarded to the knights that won the tournaments held in the city back in the Middle Ages. The beer is pale yellow, slightly cloudy beer with a refreshing tartness. It's made from wheat and hops and is seasoned with bitter orange and coriander. The beer is unfiltered, as with all beers on lees, which allows it to keep the natural cloudiness given by its yeast. Often served with a slice of lemon, the beer has very low bitterness and a dense, creamy head. The typical size of a bottle is 25cl (250ml). The bottles regularly come in a boxed packet of 6. |
