Weyerbacher Zotten


















































Weyerbacher Brewing Co.
Weyerbacher Zotten
Easton, PA
6/10/2009. on tap at Frisco Grille, 6.0 abv

Smell

The smell was sweet, fruity and somewhat perfumey.

Appearance

Deep golden color with small foamy head and moderate bubbles.

Taste

There is a lot going on in this beer. It starts spicy and citrusy, then gives way to slightly bitter hoppiness. It seemed a little astringent at first, but that eased up as it warmed. It was good, not awesome, but good.

Comments

Zotten means "fools" in Flemish and is pronounced with a long "o", as in "no". Go ahead, say it. No, it does not rhyme with "rotten"...say it again. That's better, now sit down and enjoy your Zotten.

Flemish comes from Flanders which is a geographic area of Belgium, The Netherlands & France. Would it kill you to open a book once in a while?
