Pours a hazy, golden/orange with a slightly, off-white fizzy head that dissipated quickly. Aroma of tart, buttery tones, date fruits, apricots, and honey-like notes. Flavor is a touch tart, with lots of lemon, a touch of vanilla and yeast esters. Medium bodied, carbonation was a bit intense at first, but settled down nicely.

Brugse Zot blond from Brewery De Halve Maan is available in the Beer Store
