COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
The first two batches of Duvel Tripel Hop were brewed with Saaz-Saaz, Styrian Golding and Amarillo. From now on Duvel Tripel Hop will have a different hop every year that will be added in the brewing process as well as being used for dry hopping. For 2012 this hop is Citra.

Editor’s note: clearly distinguishable, in a circle on the label it reads "Dry Hopped with Citra 2012 Selection"

Je proeft dat het duvel is! Maar hij valt wel tegen als je de duvel tripel hop van 2011 hebt geproeft! Citra hop overheerst!!

Bozo_skeleton (147) - Grenoble, FRANCE - MAY 23, 2013
Hummm ! Excelente biere doree a la carbo genereuse. Des aromes frais de citron et d’herbes seches. La presence en bouche est superbe. Bonne rondeur, bel equilibre, une amertume genereuse qui tiens bien en longueur mais qui n’apporte pas une secheresse trop presente sur le final. Encore...

TarcisioVasco (108) - Ribeirão Preto (SP)., BRAZIL - MAY 23, 2013
Versão lupulada da clássica Duvel, perde um pouco da sua perfeição e equilibrio na versão mais lupulada, mas continua excepcional e faz a alegria dos mais lúpulos maníacos.

MrW (228) - Londerzeel, BELGIUM - MAY 21, 2013
33cl bottle Citrius in the aroma, fruits, grapefruit but less than in the 2013 version, mealy (melig) apple, some candy. Too bad that I got a dusty glass. Blond, white foamy head, huge sparkling. Fruity, not much left of the original Duvel, some bitterness, a bit of white wine, a bit of pepper in the aftertaste. Sharp fruity bitter towards the end. Too fizzy mouthfeel.

UPDATED: MAY 22, 2013 geel/gouden helder met schuimig witte kraag, mede het hoge co2 gehalte blijft de kraag voeden aroma: MEGA citrus achtig, echt ik ben nog nooit een bier tegengekomen welke zo fris naar citrus rook smaken: matig zoet, medium bitter medium body, glad, te hoog co2, afdronk: hoppgi, zoetig dit zou een fantastisch terrasbier wezen in de zomer/volle zon, maar nu even niet!

Eructoblaster (2447) - Gatineau, Quebec, CANADA - MAY 18, 2013
Bottle - 330ml. Hazy blond body with average carbonation and a decent white foamy head. Fresh hoppy aroma with herbal and bready hints. Alcohol is very well hidden. Its sharp hoppy taste carries herbal, coriander, and some subtle honeyish notes. Ends with a sharp, long, warming bitter/herbal finish. Very enjoyable all-season strong ale.

Osprey87 (543) - London via, WALES - MAY 11, 2013
Cold bottle. Pale yellow, high carbonation, big enduring white head, lots of lacing. Looks great. Citra hops smell. Taste is peachy, fruit soda, lager and sparkling wine qualities. Flavour isn’t very intense. Easy drinking.
