Duvel 6,66% 🇧🇪 - Review
A few months ago, I had a chance to visit Ale down in Florida for a few short days. After a stop at Total Wine to stock up on some rare beers to try, we took advantage of being in the same place to film a few episodes in his pub. As you can imagine, after filming a few reviews prior to this one, our beer barometer senses were sharpened to the point of achieving close to perfect, optimal review performance.
The sunny, warm yellow design of the bottles already suggests it. This Duvel 666 is much more mild than it's predecessor. The regular belgian golden ale. No fewer than 6 different hop varieties are used for Duvel 6,66%: just like the classic Duvel, it’s based on the noble and exclusive hop varieties Saaz and Styrian Golding. The flavour is then balanced by adding four expertly selected hop varieties to the mix, which also involves the dry-hopping technique.

Probably my favorite import I can find here in Victoria now. I can't believe I missed the Delirium cafe when I went to Brussels last summer, but given the fact I was able to try so many amazing high quality beers that are available everywhere in Belgium I can't be too upset. Belgium is truly a beer enthusiasts paradise, feels like going to Valhalla.

    Yuengling is the best "beer" in the US. What I mean by that is most Americans see beer as the "lagers" of Budweiser, Miller, PBR, Coors, and I would lump some of the mass produced imports in there too. That really is all we had available for decades. Yuengling is that style done very well. I think its critical for showing people what beer can be. That beer can have flavor, texture, etc. You give someone a Yuengling and their faith in beer just changes. Then, they can branch out to different styles. Excellent show gentlemen! Id love too see Yuengling vs Great Lakes Dortmunder Gold

    • @BeerBrackets
      @BeerBrackets 11 годин тому

      Could not agree more! We always say the same thing about Yuengling - we ranted about this in our review of it. It’s one of the best easily accessible “macro” lager you can get in the U.S. in our opinion. And a great gateway beer for anyone coming from beers like the ones you mentioned and curious to try things with more flavour and character. Thanks for watching!! Cheers 🍻
