🌍 Belgium · Belgian Blonde Ale · One of 46 Belgian Blonde Ales in hopIQ

FOMO joined the Dupont range in 2026 as an organic, gluten-free tasting beer, brewed so that people with coeliac disease can enjoy it too. Its name stands for fear of missing out, a nod to how few characterful beers exist in this segment. The blond opens with yellow fruit reminiscent of peach, light citrus and cereal notes, carried by the yeast signature typical of the house. Hallertau Mittelfrüh and Spalter Select hops give a refreshing bitterness to its dry, balanced profile.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for FOMO

◎ Appearance

FOMO presents a pale golden hue with excellent clarity and fine, persistent carbonation. The head forms quickly and clings to the glass with fine lacing, characteristic of a well-crafted Belgian blonde. The effervescence remains lively throughout the pour.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with bright stone fruit—peach and apricot—alongside delicate citrus notes that recall bergamot and white grapefruit. Cereal undertones provide a subtle malty foundation, while the distinctive Dupont yeast signature emerges with gentle spice and herbal complexity. Hallertau Mittelfrüh and Spalter Select hops contribute a refined, dry floral character without dominating the profile.

◐ Taste

Entry is clean and crisp, with the fruit notes from the nose translating seamlessly to the palate. The mid-palate reveals light biscuit and grain sweetness balanced by a refreshing bitterness that develops steadily. The noble hops provide a dry, herbal finish that prevents any cloying quality, maintaining a well-proportioned, thirst-quenching character throughout.

◑ Finish

The finish is clean and moderately dry, with hoppy bitterness lingering pleasantly without harshness. The aftertaste remains refreshing, with a faint citrus echo and a subtle grainy dryness.
