Ypra
Berries, citrus, orange and grapefruit lead the aroma, the taste is soft and fruity with a slight bitterness, and refermentation in the bottle shapes its character. This top-fermented blonde (6 %) combines five hop varieties. The name comes from Ypres, where Ypra was once the main brand of Brouwerij Vermeulen, founded in 1836; that brewery later became part of Omer Vander Ghinste.
