A clear rather pale straw colored beer, a very high, slowly settling white head, leaving good lacing and has some curtains.

The smell is earthy, stable, dirt, leather but also some fruits, fresh apples and pears.

Initially sweet, white bread, oranges, spices, clove, peppers, some wood. Some yeast and sour milk.

Medium high carbonation, soft texture and minimal bubbles, refreshing and smooth.

Fresh, exciting and complex.

Is it a tripple or an IPA on steroids?
Difficult.
But it is a great beer.
Made with Duvel yeast. Poured in a Duvel glass at 6 degrees celsius. From a 330ml bottle. Quite explosive when opening. Highly carbonated and yeasting on the bottle.
Smell, Duvel yeast with citra hops. Grapefruity with a little bit of lovely dirty yeast.
Mouth feel, quite sensational. Lot of things happening. Sweet, tingling, sour, bitter. It is hard to believe this beer is not garpefruit infused
. But I think it is not, Citra hops.
Duvel made different dry hoped infused tripples during the years, different variations of this ultra hopped and abv-strong IPA. This one is not the best I taste, but it is still one of the best beers I ever had.

Look: pale banana yellow, somewhat hazy. Towering frothy head.
Smell: citrusy hops, evident by the moment you pour it. A bit of wheat too.
Taste: I'm usually not a big fan of Belgian IPAs but these guys have nailed it quite a lot. Typical belgian phenols (clove, I think) and fruity esters (banana) combined with a refreshing citrus hop kick and a pleasantly bitter aftertaste. Only spoiled by a bit too much rubbing alcohol.
Feel: medium to large body, dry finish without being astringent, quite on the tripel side.
Overall: outstanding industrial beer.

From Belgium in a Box. In Teku glass. Playing Magic Duels vs Lorenzo. More citrusy, refreshing and bit more watery than the normal Duvel. Im not sure if I prefer it over the normal one, but this is very good too. Very foamy, had to pour it in 2 steps.
