Duvel - Brouwerij Duvel Moortgat NV

New York

4.58/5  rDev +6.8%
look: 5 | smell: 4.5 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 5 | overall: 4.5

Appearance: Clear, straw-gold body (I poued very carefully), with continuously streaming champagne bubbles. Outrageously huge fizzy head morphs into a clean, white, whipped-egg-white topping that's there for the duration leaving whispy lace everywhere. Exceptional.
Smell: Crisp citrus, grapefruit, yeasty(slight must)/crackery, sweet candy malt and floral hop notes.
Taste: Smooth, light-medium bodied sweet toffee malt, almost lager-like. Crisp carbonation and gentle floral/citrus hops dry the mouth when suddenly the cheeks and tongue start to numb with alcohol warmth.
Mouthfeel: Velvety and light. Tingly champagne fizz which devilishly hides the eventual ABV rush. Quite an experience!
Drinkability: This is one devious brew: Pristine in it's innocence, devastating in it's betrayal (hey, I like that). Never would have expected to like this so much...thanks BA!
