hopIQ found 10 beers with the same malty and light character as Blauw. An export beer, the bottom-fermented type that was popular in Belgium in the 1950s, when manual workers drank it by the 33 cl bottle because it was lighter than regular pils. The name recalls the blue work clothes of those labourers; today it carries the same 5.2 % as the brewery's pils. Brewed from water, maize, barley malt, hops and yeast, it pours clear with a fine white head. The aroma is of malt and hops, the palate malty with a gentle bitterness. With a shelf life of nine months, it is best drunk fresh. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
