À propos

Duvel Moortgat ventures into barrel-aged territory with this Brazilian-inspired edition, resting for eight months in cachaça casks. At 11% ABV, this strong ale marries tropical fruit character and rum-like warmth with Duvel's signature refinement. The glass reveals a clear, light amber-bronze pour with a quickly subsiding head. Aromatically, rum, oak and vanilla lead the way. On the palate, initial sweetness transitions gracefully into wood, dried nuts and vanilla. The cachaça barrels impart a lively fruit-punch quality to the beer's profile. This is a sipping beer for those seeking adventure beyond the everyday. The velvety mouthfeel and festive finish of oak and nutty notes make it a natural choice for contemplative moments.
