Coffee. My change control starts in 10 minutes.

Granted the coffee might also have baileys in it.

Is their beer made both here & over seas ?


You know, I really don't know the answer to that. I can tell you though that my recent Duvel was lovely.

Tonight, however, I will be having a glass of Mumm Champagne that my wife's parents just brought to Utah from France for the start of their two week trip in the American West. It's also to toast to their new granddaughter. Smile

The answers are "time and travel ... and possibly, yeast."

1. Depending on whom you believe, the Duvel recipe has a fair amount of late addition hops. (Hops added near the end of the boil.) These hops provide a lot of volatile oils that give great aroma when the beer is fresh, but these oils fade and disappear over time.

2. If the beer is brewed in Belgium (and I believe all Duvel is brewed in Belgium) it has to travel over great distance (obviously) to get in your local package store. This speeds up the ageing process and brings in other factors like light-struck bottles that will produce a "funky" off flavor.

3. Duvel may be brewed at various sites now that they've bought quite a few breweries in the USA (Ommegang)and in Belgium (la Chouffe). Those breweries may be using a strain of yeast that is close to the Moortgat brewery yeast... but not quite.

I can't distinguish among hops very well, but I am very sensitive to yeast flavor profiles. Often, I can tell when different brands use the same yeast (as is the case in almost all Budweiser products, yecch!) or a brewery may use a different strain of yeast to produce beer that is slightly different from the original.

Yes, I am a beer geek.

Just tried a nice Australian red blend table wine called 19 Crimes. Very tasty and smooth, and less than $10 a bottle.

Balvenie Caribbean Cask tonight. Tasty old friend!




“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”
