Duvel - 33 CL

Duvel is a natural beer with a subtle bitterness, a refined taste and a pronounced hop character. The unique brewing process, which takes approximately 90 days, guarantees a pure character, delicate effervescence and a pleasant sweet alcohol taste. In addition to pure spring water, the main ingredient of beer, barley is the most important raw material. Barley must germinate in the malting house for five days, after which malt remains. The color of the malt and therefore also of the beer is determined by the temperature. Duvel obtains its typical bitterness by adding different types of aromatic Slovenian and Czech hops. We only use exclusive hop varieties that are known for their consistent, excellent quality. Duvel ferments for the first time in tanks at 20 to 26°C. The brewer uses his own culture for this. The original yeast strain, which Victor Moortgat himself selected in the 1920s, comes from Scotland. After maturation in storage tanks in which the beer is cooled to -2°C, the drink is ready for bottling. Thanks to the addition of extra sugars and yeast, the beer is refermented again in the bottle. This is done in warm cellars (24°C) and takes two weeks. The beer is then transferred to cold cellars, where it continues to mature and stabilize for another six weeks. This extra long ripening period is unique and contributes to the refined taste and pure taste of Duvel.
