Christmas Duyck.
I saved the most festive looking of the 12 Beers of Christmas for last,
on Christmas Day.
Brasserie Duyck is a fourth generation family brewery, started by Felix
Duyck in 1922 in Jenlain, France. Most
of their beers are distributed primarily in champagne bottles, which of course
are readily available in France. These
bottles are the ideal size for sharing – a glass for you, a glass for me, and
whoever finishes their glass first (usually me) gets the rest.
The Bière De Noël is actually a slightly heavier version of their Bier
de Garde. It is made with more malt and
has a higher alcohol content (6.8%) than their Bier de Garde. It was quote enjoyable, and a great finish to
the 12 Beers of Christmas.
