erickok (802) - Leiden, NETHERLANDS - MAY 31, 2011
UPDATED: AUG 4, 2011 Golden body that’s much clearer than the regular Duvel. Still a big head. Aroma is more grassy and herbs plus banana and white bread. Tat bit too soft. Still a nice full bitter taste but, again, more fresh almost citrusy and with less spices. I realise I’m only compaing it to it’s well know big brother while this is a great brew on its own. Fatty mouthfeel. Very good, although - sorry - not as rich as the regular all-time favourite. (25cl bottle)

Swaroga (255) - Brussels, BELGIUM - NOV 19, 2011
25cl bottle. Pours a clear yellow with a small white head. Nose : caramel malts with refreshing citrus notes. Pepper. Sip : Foamy, not a mouthful. Decent carbonation. Little floral aromas going into bitter hops. Pepper still present in taste. Little clove. Overall it’s surprisingly good pale beer!

Bov (7098) - Bienne, SWITZERLAND - JAN 29, 2002
UPDATED: APR 13, 2006 at last, about 15 years later, I’ve been able to put my hands on this beer, the filtered version of the world classic Duvel - slightly hazy golden colour under a stable little foam and a nice lace; solid grapefruity and bready nose; oily with a robust malt body and a sharp bitterness; some astringence; long bitter fruity and yeasty aftertaste - nice stuff indeed

The filtered classic beer, carbonated artificially, so it is clear, light golden with a fine white head. Big clean beer with excellent bitterness and blance with a density of esters that is extremely pleasant. Good head retention but not a rocky head. Will not evolve in the bottle like it's bottled conditionned twin.

mtoast (336) - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA - OCT 13, 2007
25cL bottle, consumed on 9/15/06 at Gambrinus in Brugges. Pours a very clear light gold with signature Duvel head, retention and lacing are nowhere near as classic as the original. Aroma on the other hand is very enjoyable, dry crisp and slightly spicy, very hop forward. Flavor is very dry, just a hint of pils malt and some yeast notes, lots of grassy and earthy hoppiness.

Hard to find this one. I had pleasure to rate this beer as no 500. Josh O. shared with us during Iron Liver VI. Nice head, thick with small bubbles. Very nice fruity aroma that was really friendly for my nose. Ahh, good! Nice feel, light cream, yeast, end decently bitter.
