Brugse Zot 330ml - Case of 12

Product Information

Crafted with care, this iconic beer glass enhances your beer-drinking experience, letting you savour the delightful flavours of Brugse Zot beer. Each sip becomes a celebration of Belgian brewing brilliance. Once the brewery was restarted, Xavier bought Brugse Zot onto the market and it soon gained a name for itself due to its special recipe. Brugse Zot is now the only beer being produced in Bruges town centre. Brugse Zot comes in two forms, with the Blond as its flagship, and a Dubbel rounding things out. Quintessentially Belgian, the beer has a big body, with fruity banana notes from the yeast blended with complimentary hops. Secondary fermentation in the bottle leads to a long maturation process and a soft carbonation. It’s a beer that gets better and better. Brugse Zot is one of only two kinds of beer that is still brewed in the historical centre of Bruges, which makes it pretty special. We’re sure that any Belgian ale enthusiasts out there would love to get their hands on some!

Brugse Zot popularity has grown over the years due to its refreshing taste and unique character. This character has come about due to it being brewed with four different types of malts and two types of aroma hops. The finished product is full bodied with a sweet malt character which is nicely balanced with fruit tones and is followed with a crisp and clean finish.

The legend of Maximilian 

Embrace the spirit of Bruges and its rich brewing history with the Brugse Zot Beer Glass. It’s a testament to the city’s innovation, character, and the joy of sharing exceptional beer. The Bruges brewer is riding a wave of interest in traditional Belgian beers, as drinkers turn against bland, watery lagers and look for flavour. Although Belgians are drinking less beer than they used to, they are getting choosier. Beer drinkers are opting for Trappist and abbey brews, ales and blonde beers, rather than mid-priced lagers, according to the latest market research by Euromonitor. Across the square, outside the brewery, horses and carriages clip clop down the lane. De Halve Maan is in the final weeks of testing the beer pipeline: four separate polyethylene tubes that look like ordinary drainpipes.

Nicole Stael, who sells postcards, snow globes and souvenir plates, said that in the 40 years she had owned her gift shop business had not been so bad. Fear of the unknown was keeping people away, she thought. “[The threat] is not in one place and people are no longer sure where is safe,” she said.Brugse Zot also goes through a re-fermentation that helps develop the taste while it’s in the bottle. People are also rediscovering family brewers, partly driven by the craze for craft beers. “A lot of people love craft beers, they are very hoppy and very strong, but they are a little bit too much in flavour at the moment,” said Marc Stroobandt, a master beer sommelier. “The family breweries have been doing it for years and have found the right balance of flavour and drinkability.” Local business owners, who have long seen beer tankers struggling to turn around on narrow lanes, are supportive.
