The intense bouquet offers a gamut of aromas, from tart cherry, green grape, underripe banana and balsamic vinegar to notes of caramel malt, prune, brown sugar and cocoa powder - 93 points - Top 25 beers of 2016.
About This Craft Beer
Originally called 'Ouden Tripel', this ancient West Flanders Brown beer has found a new élan as a regional specialty under its current name ‘Bellegems bruin’.
The main ingredients of our Beelgems Bruin are malted barley, wheat, hops, water and carmelized malts. These are uses to brew a top-fermented beer. Blending this beer with lambic beer aged in oak for 18 months results in this specific West Flanders Brown beer.
Its typical flavor is characterized by a well-balanced, hardly noticeable sourness. This first flavor impression is soon followed by a second pleasant discovery: a slight bitterness followed by a hint of sweetness.
