Add ImageDuvel Rustica by Brewery Ommegang
Belgian Strong Pale Ale
8.50 % ABV
Duvel Rustica Golden Ale is our long-anticipated collaboration with Duvel. It's our first Belgian-style Golden Ale, a elegant ale noted for using simple ingredients to create complex flavors and aromas. We worked closely with Duvel on the recipe and processes, yet added our own signature notes. This Duvel collaboration created a fine ale, one with all the depth and breadth of Duvel's classic Belgian Golden Ale, along with rustic notes, including fruity esters from our yeast.
In keeping with our rustic farmstead roots, Rustica pours a golden hue, the aroma and flavor mixes maltiness and citrus from hops while the yeast produces notable fruitiness. The body is lean and rounded, while the finish offers dry warmth & firm hop bitterness.
8.5% ABV
Available for a limited time in 1/6 BBLs and 750ml bottles starting October 2012.

(Served in a tulip glass)A- This beer has a touch of haze to the deep lemon yellow body and a rocky snow white head that last for the full beer. There are microstrands of microbubbles directed toward the surface.
S- The cider note turns into a bring hop aroma that blends into a fruity ester finish.
T- The club soda taste has a touch of sweetness that leads to some nice yeasty esters that grow into a juicy fruit flavor. There is the classic ommagang yeast character to follow with a clean fruity dry lemon hop finish. A bright cider and clove note linger for just a moment after each sip.
M- This beer has a light mouthfeel with a gentle fizz that compliments the spice phenol in the finish.
O- This is a very nice blend of yeast characters with bright hops in a very drinkable beer.
