Easy choice...

Save the Duval for a stand-alone Strong Ale Sipper...

Drink (quaff) the Kölsch, cold, from your favorite Stang...

Then pour the Doree into your favorite goblet and allow it to breath a few minutes... Then enjoy!

:Envy:

Irish coffees. I like to put a little fresh ginger in the cream topper. Baby, it’s cold outside!

Man, I forgot how much coriander was in this. That's why last time I messed with this it wasn't right. Nowhere near enough did I use, I went off standard WIT beer levels and this has more. And I think I used other stuff I shouldn't have since I was brewing from memory.

Something like 80%pils, 10%wheat, 10% light cassonade sugar, a good bit of coriander and wlp500 would be close. 1.04ish OG. Gonna try it again in the summer.

Coriander haters would not like this. But it's YUM.

@BigPapaG:

Buy Duval. Open it.
Open one of your light colored simple Belgians made with Abbaye (at least Llalamand version) if you have one.

Taste both. Very similar ester/phenolic profile. At least in my one here...

Mine is a patersbier of nothing but pils, 5L candi syrup, hops, and abbaye which I have liked tremendously... and now I know why. It's like mini-duval. I think the beer I made could be a pretty good duval clone with it by just cranking up the pils and sugar (and using plain clear sugar).

Cool?! I'm doing it as soon as I have warmer temps.

Now I know why I like that yeast so much...

Rhinegeist Mosaic Pale Ale. All I will say is that it's a good thing this brewery is a little more than 2 hours away.

Tioga-Sequoia Autumn Rush, bourbon barrel aged "breakfast stout", 11.8 ABV.

When I bought it the checker was shocked by the price but said something about beer as strong as "harder stuff". She asked if I just had a small sip (I assume she meant like a shot glass) and I said no, not so small. But tonight I am just having a little in my wine glass and utilized my bottle capper to recap the rest. Really nice aroma and flavor. I'll have to pick up a few more if any are left.

Autumn Rush which is a blended bourbon barrel aged Hazelnut Imperial Breakfast Stout (Coffee and Hazelnut Infused Double Milk Stout).

Jim Johnson's Winter Time... found a bottle (and a few other Nashville meetup bottles) when I was rearranging the beer fridge. I guess these got lost in the back. I really need to rotate the stock better. This held up nicely. Cap says it was from 10/14.
