COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Rich in the flavours of pears & apples it has analmost champagne like texture with a tight bubbly fizz, unlike most ales. After what will be a delightful first taste surprise the second mouthful will confirm the richness of this beer with flavours hinting at brandy & calvados. Garlic Roasted Chicken, Rich Roasted Porkwith apple sauce, even the dessert "Tarte Tartin" will be enhanced beyond compare with this superb beer!! So forget the wine and experience the difference that "Friend of the Devil" offers!!

Papsoe (25131) - Frederiksberg, DENMARK - APR 27, 2011
Bottle 37,5 cl. Courtesy of madmitch76. Pours golden with a slight haze and a small white head. Sweet fruity and phenollic aroma. Medium body, sweet fruit, vanilla and again phenols. Discreetly yeasty. Ends sweet with no hoppiness. Not a bad stab at a Belgian, but I really could do without those phenols. 270411

duff (5484) - Lund, SWEDEN - FEB 7, 2011
Bottle. Golden colour. Yeasty aroma, peach and apple, flowers. Slightly detergenty aroma, a bit rubbery, but not too bad a take on a Duvel? style. One of the more authentic Belgian style ales brewed in England.
