... or how a Belgian beer hater had to grudgingly admit that Duvel's pretty good.
This was a Christmas gift from my bother-in-law. They were along the right track, but I really dislike the yeast in Belgian beers. It came with the super cool Duvel glass. I don't know that if the tulip shape is trapping the bad flavors where I can't get to them, or encouraging them to get the hell out of here while the head settles. Either way. I approve.
The beer is somewhat light tasting, with some citrus, maltiness, and some yeasty qualities. It is bottle fermented, and I plan to age my last two bottles for a couple of years to see how it evolves. It's 8.5% abv. and goes down easy. Consider yourself forewarned.
