Duo is a golden-blonde Trappist beer from Westmalle, with an alcohol content of 7.2%. The beer combines the freshness of the Extra with the fruity body of the Tripel, resulting in a refined balance of hop and fruit aromas. The six different hop varieties lend the beer its distinctive freshness, while the fruity notes provide a soft finish.
The full-bodied, creamy taste and subtle hop bitterness give the beer a rich aftertaste, with a characterful finish that invites another sip.

On tap at The Blacksmith, Zaandam. It’s a hazy golden with a thick white head. Aroma has a nice yeast character, soft and subdued but there with pepper notes, biscuit, soft citrus, light banana and a touch of cloves. Pretty nice!

On tap at Beer Capital Brussels, pours a hazy blonde with a large white head. Aroma has a real nice Belgian yeast expression, some spiciness, and dry biscuity malt. Flavour has a wonderfully complex yeast profile, with gentle spiciness, just a touch of rustic character, all while maintaining incredible drinkability. Well-carbonated and clean. Fantastic.

On tap at Bernie's Brugge. Hazy gold colour lasting white head. Yes i can see the tripel and the hoppy extra it's very drinkable not sure it needed to be made. It's not as intense as the tripel . Good hop bite on finish though.

Keg at Belgobaren, Stokholm. Light floral tripel aroma. Quite light, wee colour. Taste is spot on and just what you would expect and want from this 60-40 blend. Finnish is just what you would want. Solid beer.

Keg at The Marine Hotel, Stonehaven. It pours lightly hazy muddy brown with a small white head. The aroma is sweet, ripe, green banana, banana split, hearty bread, warming spice, clove rock and peppery spice. The taste is dry, bitter - sweet, warming spice, peppery, clove rock, warming booze, bread, biscuit, touch of cake, fragrant, floral vibes and juniper with a drying finish. Average carbonation and body. Perhaps not in top condition, would like more lively carbonation. Decent nonetheless.
