Duvel Tripel Hop Citra

◎ Aussehen

Pale golden-yellow with bright, lively clarity and a fine, persistent white head that leaves delicate lacing as it settles. The carbonation is brisk and visible, creating a light, airy foam that clings to the glass throughout the drinking experience.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with prominent citrus notes—ripe grapefruit and zesty orange peel—layered over tropical fruit character that suggests mango and passion fruit. A subtle herbal, floral quality from the Citra hops adds complexity, while the Belgian yeast provides a light spiciness beneath.

◐ Geschmack

On the palate, bright citrus and tropical fruit lead the entry, supported by a clean, slightly grainy malt backbone that avoids heaviness. The mid-palate develops a balanced bitterness—measured and refined rather than aggressive—that cleanses without overwhelming the hop-driven fruitiness. The finish is dry and crisp.

◑ Abgang

The aftertaste is refreshing and moderately long, with lingering grapefruit and a subtle herbal dryness. The alcohol warmth is barely perceptible despite the 9.5% ABV.
