Duvel beer

Duvel is the champaign of beer. It is expensive but very good, it is also very bubbly. It is, in fact, so bubbely that even a very good bar tender will likely have 1/4 of the glass filled with foam after the pour.

Duvel tastes a bit like wine. It is a very good Belgian beer and like many Belgian beers has a higher then normal alcohol content. At 8.5% alcohol it is strong and you will find yourself feeling it quickly. Duvel has a cork as apposed to a topical metal top and is avaliable in 1 pint servings (as well as your standard 12 ounce).

Conclusion: Duvel is not your every day beer and doesn't go well with everything. But it is very good on its own and is a nice treat from time to time. For special occasions Duvel gets an 8.0 out of 10.
