Kutbier Blond met Pruimen from Brouwerij Boegbeeld is a crisp blonde ale at 6.3% ABV with a deliberately provocative name—a cheeky nod to the feisty spirit of Den Bosch. The beer itself, however, is far more approachable than its title suggests.

Brewed with dried plums and coriander seed, this blonde presents as slightly hazy with a medium head. The aroma is gently fruity, and the palate follows suit with light fruit notes, though the plums remain discreetly in the background. The finish is clean and dry.

A boldly named beer that proves Den Bosch's residents have a softer heart beneath their sharp exterior.
