Belgian pils with a red apple taste: Jupiler Apple is fruitier than the Jup you know, with natural red apple flavour balanced against beer flavour, at 5.2% ABV. It is a limited edition, gone once it's gone, and a co-creation in which students approved both the flavour and the can. The brand calls the apple season "Japple".
