Copenhagen 26/3 2021. 33 cl bottle from Beerdealer web-shop. Simple green label with loopy off-white letters and a little logo with a silhouette of a woman with a huge bottle.
Pours unclear, golden yellow with a big white head. Stable. Settles as 4 cm thick blanket of foam covering the surface of the beer. Massive lacing.
Aroma is moderately intense and somewhat dampened by the massive amount of foam. Sweet malty odor mingling with a yeasty touch. Sweet pale malts and grains. Light lemongrass. Damp cellar.
Medium strong carbonation. Thin, watery, lively and tingling texture.
Flavor is medium intense with a medium strong sweetness followed by a moderate bitterness. Aftertaste is sweetish and lingers for a bit. Finish is semi-dry.
Decent if somewhat generic Golden Ale.

De Decervecitas. En copa Teku. Jugando a The Last of Us. Belga con un ligero toque lupulado de perfil cítrico/herbal que le da interés y la hace algo más refrescante de lo habitual

How is it that when the big Belgian importers focus on the two coasts (particularly the Atlantic) and that I, a Chicagoan, get a copy and am the first reviewer.
Answer: The importers are 3 hours away in Kalamazoo, Michigan. Maybe that explains my luck.
that is what I said in 2017. With a second tasting in 2020, I've edited my review (not much) and upped my rating slightly.
This beer is a very pleasant find for three reasons.
First, Luppoo means "hoppy", but it really gets most its flavor from its yeast. (But, know that I favor ales who do not rely on hops to create flavor.) My corollary theory: hops are used properly to keep malt and yeast from creating dissonant flavors. I call it Balance.
Second, it always fun to find a brewer I never heard of... and, obviously, they do not get much distribution in these parts.
Third... like most Belgians, this ale is designed to go with food. And this was a fulfilling complement to a meal of leftovers... twice.
For non-hop-heads like me, this beer should be hunted down. If I find it again, I will have it again. (And I'm glad I did.)
There was so long a period between tastings (almost 3 years), that I now add to this review what I've been doing for just over two years... which is to give a quick review of the brewer. I like these guys... even with knowing not much about them. This was a well-crafted ale. Their distribution outlets seem to be mostly in Brabant (the Brussels metro)... except Binny's in Chicago where I got this and saw it often over three years. Belgoo has an interesting lineup of ales and I certainly would like to see more of them, particularly their saison. I would add Belgoo to my BBBL, (Belgian Brewer Bucket List) but the damn thing is already too lengthy... unless I were to take up residence in Brussels. Now there is a pleasant thought.
