About

Duvel Tripel Hop 2013 represents an ambitious hop-forward venture from Duvel Moortgat Brewery, showcasing three distinct hop varieties. This strong blonde ale builds on the classic Duvel foundation with a three-stage hopping strategy: Saaz and Styrian Goldings during fermentation, complemented by dry-hopping. The result is crisp and citrus-forward in aroma, with a complex palate where juicy fruit notes and floral hop character interplay. The 2013 vintage featured Sorachi Ace as the dry-hop choice, contributing distinctive grassy and peppery notes. At 9.5% ABV, this beer delivers full flavour without heaviness, supported by a solid malt backbone that keeps the hop bitterness refined and integrated.
