In 2017 zag de eerste Duvel Barrel Aged het levenslicht. Een uniek degustatiebier gerijpt op houten whiskyvaten, afkomstig van gerenommeerde Amerikaanse bourbon distilleries. Vier jaar en vijf succesvolle edities Duvel Barrel Aged later, wilden de Duvelbrouwers het ietwat anders aanpakken. Geen bourbonvaten deze keer, wél rumvaten net als vorig jaar. Waar Duvelmeesterbrouwer Hedwig Neven in 2020 nog houten vaten van The West Indies Rum Distillery in Barbados in de Duvelkelders liet plaatsen, zocht hij ditmaal inspiratie in Jamaica.
Na maandenlang rijpen, kan je dit najaar een gezellig diner met vrienden en familie afsluiten met een glas Duvel Barrel Aged, The Jamaican Edition.

Big and boozy rum at first, but as it warms, becomes a scary easy drinking beer. Get vanilla, banana. Oak. Finally sitting down after a busy day. Still have laundry to fold and dinner to make.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Max's place. Thanks Lior. Clear deep golden. Rum, coconut, wood, a bit smoky, oxidation, caramel, fruitiness, sweet, alcohol, feels a bit artificial.

75cl bottle from Delhaize. Clear dark golden, small, off-white head. Aroma of marmalade, candied apricot, Napoléon bonbon, orange peel, honey, bourbon, white rum, bordering on 'pure alcohol'. Taste has sweet apple, apricot & orange peel; honeyish malt base carrying residual white sugar, bitter spices and phenols, bit woody but metallic too. Floral hoppy finish, more sugary yellow fruits, iron and sharp, boozy white rum-like alcohol. Medium body, oily texture, soft carbonation. Too sharp, sugary and boozy. Not enjoyable.

Medium, faintly amber tinted head over cristal clear metallic copper beer. Rum, wood, sugar, some alcohol, vanilla, and yeast notes. Alcohol, fusels, velvet, hint of incense, vanilla. Sugar, almondy - too much. Bit slick, alcoholheat. Not very carbonated. Speculaas spices in the aftertaste. Certainly not bad, far from it. It's not "my" style of beer, but it is quite interesting, more than the other rumbarrel aged Duvel but not necessarily better. Though, with Duvel it hasn't much in common any longer, tastewise. Txs to Stef!

Fles nr. 49313 van batch nummer 6 gehad. Oranje bruin bier met een dun schuim dat snel weg trekt. Aroma van rum en alcohol. Smaak van rum en ietwat zuur met vanille. De nasmaak is zuur en licht bitter.

Fles gedeeld met Roelzie, Benzai en Keukeman. Het is een oranje bruin bier met een dun schuim. Het heeft een dikke rum geur. De smaak is vol, rum achtig en wat zurig in de afdronk.

Bottle shared at tasting. Clear golden color, average sized white head. Aroma is, well, odd. Flavor too. Malts, sweetish, oddly sourish-fruity-weirdo flavors. Meh.
