Born of the ancestral know-how of a family brewery, Barbar beer will please you with its malt taste and subtle flavour of honey. It is brewed using water drawn from artesian wells on the site of the brewery, at Quenast, a small village to the south of Brussels. This area is well-known for the quality and the diversity of its beers. Barbar beer is prepared from a secret and harmonious mixture of barley malts, hops and honey carefully selected by our Master Brewer. The traditional brewing method, associated with our unique strain of yeast, and the secondary fermentation in the bottle, gives Barbar the authentic flavour of a very special ale.

    Preference: 3 (1=0 2=0 3=1 4=0 5=0)
    Comments: www.duvel.be 666, a hell of a combination. Contains barley malt and wheat malt. IBU 20. Let yourself be swept away by the dance of the hop devils. Inspired by the fruity aromas of the hops, and a zest of orange. Its bottle has a label with red Duvel name on a yellow background, instead of the traditional red on a white background. Brewed for the 150th anniversary of the brewery with 6 hops. The sunny, warm yellow design of the bottles already suggests it. This Duvel is mild, expressive and deliciously drinkable. 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.

  23. Beer: Palm Royale (Royal Legendary Belgian Ale) (bottle)
    Type: Strong Beer
    Strength: 7.5%
    Brewer: Palm
    Country: Belgium
    Description: Colour=Orange yellow, Malty=Yes, Hoppy=No, Effervesce=Yes, Other=Slightly fruit and sweet taste with a smooth finish
    Preference: 3 (1=0 2=0 3=1 4=0 5=0)
    Comments: www.palm.be Unique amber coloured malts determine the basic flavour of PALM Royale: mild caramel flavours with a honey-like mellowness. The malting process adheres to PALM's specific instructions which are aimed at a natural brown colouring that delivers its specific flavour. The aroma is determined to a significant extent by yeast. Through intensive selection the Van Roy family has amassed a lavish collection of the various yeast strains, each of which gives the beer its own fruity character. PALM Royale is fermented with a symbiosis of three different yeast strains which provide an extreme banana fruitiness. This ale-type beer was created in 2003 in honour of the 90th birthday of PALM brewer Alfred Van Roy and given the name PALM Royale (Roy-ale). His enthusiasm for the pronounced fermentation fruitiness of his personally selected Palm yeasts finds its most emphatic expression in PALM Royale, a truly delightful brew. Its appearance is copper-coloured, with a rich, white head adhering to the glass. The aroma is reminiscent of banana; the flavour has bite with a great deal of body. With mild sweetness due to the alcohol, the beer is nevertheless somewhat bitter and fruity.
