Since 2017, Duvel Tripel Hop Citra has been permanently available, but that didn’t stop the Duvel brewers from creating yet another limited specialty beer this year. The brewers are always searching for ways to innovate and this year, they have once again succeeded in returning with the original flavour blend of 2019 made with an exclusive hop variety: 'Cashmere'.
Last year, for the first time Duvel Tripel Hop was brewed with the unique hop variety Cashmere and it was a resounding success. The limited-edition specialty beer flew off the shelves and many beer lovers missed out. Swayed by the popular demand to brew a new batch, the brewers decided to use the limited-availability hop again in 2020. Starting this March, the dry-hopped specialty beer Duvel Tripel Hop Cashmere will once again be available. Along with Duvel Tripel Hop Citra, this beer will become available. From March onwards, Duvel Tripel Hop Cashmere will be sold by beer dealers, and supermarkets.

Pours a golden amber color with a large foamy head. Aroma is malt and yeast and taste is the same. No real hop bitterness and kind of a sweetness. Very good and flavorful beer. BOD 8-2024

Another balanced beer where the citrus, melon, biscuity, and bitterness are all in balance. It has the same yellow bubbly look of Citra. The finish is dry and inoffensive. Very enjoyable!

Copenhagen 8/7 2019. 33 cl bottle from Best of Beers Web-shop. Usual little Chubby bootle from Duvel with the usual label design - this time with a very Green stripe to indicate that I am in Hoppy waters.
Pours slightly unclear, pale yellow with a big white head. Settles as 1,5 cm thick layer of fluffy foam. Covering the surface of the beer completely. Moderate Lacing.
Aroma is fairly intense with light sweet fruitiness, citric odors and some basement smells. Sweet peach, humid basement room, citrus and hints of Grape fruit.
Medium strong carbonation. Slightly thick, lively yet Soft texture due to the foam.
Flavor is medium sweet followed by a medium strong bitterness. A bit citric. Aftertaste is bitter. Lingers for a while. Light alcoholic burn.
Fine, nicely balanced Belgian where I hardly notice the considerable ABV.

At my lady Pamela's house; bottled and chilled, 330mL in a pint glass. From the Huron Church Rd. LCBO in nearby Windsor. My first beer from the Puurs-Sint-Amands, Belgium brewery. With Gracie the cat...

Pours lots of foam. Golden color. Smells a bit of raw banana and yeast.
The taste reminds me a little of a wheat beer with that banana and yeast flavor. There is some bitterness due to the Cashmere hops that seem like the right amount. A little boozy but not over the top.
This is a decent beer but not exactly my personal go to. I do prefer this one over their original beer.
I've had better strong beers out of Belgium that I would take over this one.

330 ml bottle - gentle pour gives finger of fine bubbly white head over a clearish bright golden yellow liquid with streaming carbonation.
Aroma is fruity and spicy - Belgian yeast, juicy fruit, lemon, honeydew with some softer herbal notes.
Taste is sweet and again a bit fruity - lemon lime, again honeydew with some peppery notes and spicy herbal hop bitterness at the back.
Bright and zippy medium mouthfeel with brisk carbonation and a dry, crisp finish.

From a bottle best by 10-24
Very heavily carbonated beer. There's just a geyser of carbonation rising into the glass. This is a slightly murky golden color. The head is very frothy and white - 3 finger. The head retention is decent, and there's some lacing on the glass.
The aroma is quite floral in nature with a good hit of bubblegum. There's hop notes as well in this beer. The hops seem almost an afterthought in this beer.
The beer has a malty start to it, then the flavors really kick in. I get a good hit of Belgian yeast in a candy/bubblegum flavor. There's a wild floral hit that comes into play. These flavors are added to by a pleasing hop bitterness that finishes this beer flavor profile out very well.
The body is very clingy and sticky. Very full feeling. It is somewhat smooth, and doesn't drink like a 9.5% beer.
Damn, this beer is downright delicious!

Appearance: Clear yellow, lots of carb bubbles, huge head.
Smell: Very lemony, crisp note, hint of Belgian yeast.
Taste: Moderate sweetness, grassy, lemony, hint of Belgian fruitiness. Finishes dry.
Overall: Picked up a mixed 4 pack mostly to get another Duvel tulip glass, but there's three new beers for me too. The hops dominate the flavor, most of the “Belgian” characteristics are like slight accents.

From the stubby bottle in a snifter. This solid hybrid pours a lightly
hazed pale straw color with a fantastic head of white foam that settles
to a thick layer with exceptional lacing. Nose of white pepper, light candy
sugars, subtle banana, lemon zest, spicy hops, and light bubblegum. Flavors
follow the nose with aplomb. Candy sugars dance about light banana, subtle clove,
peppery hops, lemon zest, and herbal hops. Mouth feel is medium, medium
carbonation, and a peppery / spicy hop laden finish that mellows with warmth.
Overall, a stunner! Nice Belgian hybrid!
Cheers

Pours clear bright yellow with the patented huge Duvel white head that refuses to yield leaving nice lacing. Aroma is mild, Belgian yeast, citrus fruits, and a hint of banana. Flavor follows the nose but much bolder, hoppy with a bit of pepper in the finish. Feel is light and well carbonated. Overall, fantastic.

11.2oz bottle, served in a Duvel tulip. 10-2024, L21001 00:12 date stamp.
Appearance: Hazy gold, massive rocky white head with lots of strands of lacing all over the glass.
Smell: Lemon, lime, tropical fruit.
Taste: Stronger taste than the smell - lemon, lime, pineapple, and maybe melon? Hops dominate, but you can get a bit of clean malt and some sweetness at the finish.
Mouthfeel: Good carbonation, nice thickness, dry finish.
Overall / Drinkability: Very interesting and unusual with this particular hop, but I found it wore out my palate a bit - it's quite a strong hop. I think I prefer the original Duvel to this one, but this beer has its charm and I'm glad I tried it.

Well this is rare, a bottle courtesy of the can man, woodychandler. Poured from a brown 11.2 oz. bottle. Has a golden color with a 1 inch head. Smell is of lemons, yeast. Taste is lemons, alcohol, some spice, hops are present. Feels medium bodied in the mouth and overall is a decent beer.
