The taste is fruity, citrus and orange. There are bitter hops with some spices. The aftertaste is dry with some sweets and it stays bitter for a while. CaptainCougar (5379), Rockville, Maryland, USA Jun 14, 2009 Bottle sampled on 5/22/08: Pours a transparent bright golden with a full-lacing dense froth of white head. Aroma of lightly sweet pale and biscuity malts with a grassy spicy hop nose. Body starts fairly full with a soft carbonation and nice authentic Belgian yeastiness along with smooth sweet biscuity complexity and hop bitterness. Very well balanced and enjoyable. austone (999), Turku; Pori, Finland May 22, 2009 75cl bottle, thanks for bringing this along, Pat! Hazy golden, huge flyffy pale head w/ tight lacing. Pretty smoothly hopped, sweetish aroma, some citric fruitiness and grass. Flavor has bitter grassy hops, sweetness, little honey, alcohol, duvel yeast, strong peppery & citric bitterness. Medium to full bodied, strongly carbonated silky palate. Duvel with strongly different hopping, seemed surprisingly fresh after all. yobdoog (1429), Woodridge NY, New York, USA Mar 22, 2009 Bottle shared at Mugs. Nice belgian character tippicle of Duvel. Nice spice and yeasty bread. Some very green and young taste like moss. A nice crisp finish with much hops at all.
