Duvel out of a Chimay goblet ( because I do not have the Duvel glass) at room temperature. It is 8.5 % alcohol but not cloying. You could easily drink lots of this and not notice how strong it was until the damage was done. I am only having the one glass.
Original review (330 ml, cold)
This bottle-conditioned top-fermenting ale is pretty much a style in its own right - a Belgian golden ale. It is certainly a much-imitated classic. Pale golden yellow in colour with a thick, bubbly head, it has a nose rich in vanilla, with some hop and spice content. On the palate it is smooth, light and lively, almost creamy, with a taste and texture that give a dangerously low impression of its strength. It has a distinct bitterness, along with citrus and vanilla flavours in abundance, but the strength only becomes apparent towards the finish - there is a rush of hop character and a hefty, malty kick that lets you know you're drinking something stronger than your average tipple. This becomes more apparent the further you get down the glass. Aftertaste is somehow fizzy, with lingering vanilla and hop notes. This is a very palatable beer which can be consumed either cold as an aperitif, or at room temperature as an alternative to port. Surprisingly, the yeast originates from the Scottish McEwan's brewery.

many kinds of drinks in the past 24 hours. Glog (kind of a mulled wine with more punch - Scandinavian drink for Christmas), Bud, Carlsberg, various red wine including Concannon Petite Syrah Reserve, Badass Kona Peaberry coffee. It's OK when you consume like 5000 calories right? 
Finished things off tonight with a Remy XO. Good night ....

A Christmas present - Broughton ales Black Douglas. It seems a bit bland.

I think my brother in law got a better gift from me - a bottle of Taylors 1996 Quinta de Vargellas vintage port. But Christmas is about giving, so they say.
