Brewer's Description:
Delirium Tremens was launched on 26 December 1989. The beer uses three different yeasts and is packaged in a bottle that is painted to resemble cologne ceramics. The label exemplifies different phases of the production of "Delirium Tremens" and that the "Pink Elephant" was up and ready to conquer the world. Delirium Tremens was named as "Best Beer in the World" in 1998 at the World Beer Championships in Chicago, Illinois, USA. Stuart Kallen gives it the number one spot in his The 50 Greatest Beers in the World.

I would have to agree... Arguably one of the best beers in the world. Or at least that I've tried.

12oz Bottle (Barley & Hops) : Inviting golden color, creamy light foamy head with good retention. Crisp arom with floral notes and a "green" pine smell. Flavor is has a spicy bite and green taste, with orange peel and hints of apricot. Complex Belgian flavor. Feel is smooth and creamy, very enjoyable. Finish is nicely subtle finishes to almost nothing.
