Self-Defined Style: 
Belgain Strong Golden Ale
Strength (ABV): 
8.5% ABV
Color (SRM): 
4º L

Duvel is unique. No other beer is made like it, or tastes like it. Blonde and refreshing like a Pilsner, but with the flavor, depth and complexity of an ale, Duvel defines the Strong Golden Ale category. The beer's golden hues originate with its Pilsner malts, while Bohemian hops and a unique yeast strain add character, intensity, and a certain verve. It's this beguiling nature that has made Duvel a Belgian favorite.

Best With: 
Pairs well with seafood, particularly steamed mussels, and works well as a stand alone beer. Excellent as an aperitif.

AleSmith Old Numbskull

Product - AleSmith Old Numbskull
Brewed By: 
AleSmith
Self-Defined Style: 
West Coast Barleywine
Strength (ABV): 
11.0% ABV

A West Coast style barleywine. A huge malt profile and a very aggressive dose of premium domestic hops give Old Numbskull a tantalizing complexity, from the aroma to the aftertaste. Aroma starts with toasty, caramel notes and a pleasant hop character. Color is deep amber, with tan head and impressive 'Brussels Lace' that clings to the sides of the glass.

Best With: 
Old Numbskull is outstanding with rich desserts such as custard or crème brûlée. Also excellent with a strong, Cuban cigar, or on its own as a digestif.
