Duff Beer

Brewed by Haacht
Style: Pilsener
Boortmeerbeek, Belgium

Serve in Flute, Footed Pilsner

Purchased a 33 cl. bottle for pure novelty value @ a night shop & proceeded to drink it straight out the bottle as Homer Simpson would have – I don’t think that the man owns a snifter. No knowledge of smell or appearance although the bottle does look cartoonly surreal. Taste is grain, corn, grass, hay with some grain/corn sweetness to it, typical bitterness in the finish & cardboard, definitely more carbonated than averagely. Pretty much what you would expect it to be, it is bad but it is also a novelty. Only I always expected Duff to be Budweiser and this is different from Bud so…

Poured golden yellow with a white, lacing head. Straw, well, mostly straw in the "aroma". Sweet taste in a light body with medium carbonation. Yeah, it is what you’d expect, but I had to try what Homer is all about :-D

UPDATED: JAN 30, 2012 Bottle. Golden colour with a white head. Moderate malty aroma. Light malty and moderate hoppy flavour

From a bottle in Copenhagen New Year 2010. Clear golden beer with a white head. Sweet fruity. Thin.

Bottle 330ml. Pale golden with a typical lager head that disappears. Earthy aroma with some oranges. A disappointingly typical lager.

Can from a store near the Vatican. Poursa pale gold with a large frothy white head. Aroma is quite bready with a little grassy hop. Med minus body. Lighly bready; lightly sweet; hardly hoppy.

Pale yellow with a thick, white head. Hoppy with malt notes. Malt, hops and barley. Medium to light body with dry finish.

Bottle, 33cl. Pours a clear and amber beer with a white head. The aroma is clean with malt, fruit and DMS. The flavor is close to the nose with additional bitterness. The palate is bitter with some sweetness. Overall a beer just below average.
