Duvel
Duvel is a 8.50% Belgian Golden Strong Ale brewed in
by Duvel Moortgat .
Duvel has a fruity dry aroma, owed to the finest hops, that reminds experts like Michael Jackson of Poire William concerning its bouquet and pallet. Its dry but still alcohol-sweet flavour makes the beer an excellent thirst-quencher, with a pronounced hop aroma. Thanks to the balance between a fine aroma and subtle bitterness, this beer occupies a unique position in the rich Belgian Beer tradition. Duvel is the perfect companion for appetisers, digestives and every other occasion.

This beer pours with the greatest head I've seen in a long time. A secondary fermentation in the bottle adds Carbon Dioxide which helps build a creamy head.
The initial aroma I got when poured was of the yeast, this settled to a sweet fruity citrus aroma.
I was expecting quite a hit with the ABV of 8.5%, but this was superbly smooth.
The aftertaste was drier than I would expect of a higher alcohol beer, I ususally find anything over 8% to have a sweetish afertaste due to the alcohol.
One to watch you'd never believe it's as strong as it is!
