For the 2026 Duvel Perfect Pour, bartenders from across the U.S. can submit their entries until the finalists are announced in June, returning to Las Vegas in August. See you there! 

Duvel, Belgium’s #1 speciality beer

Duvel is Flemish for “devil” and that’s no coincidence. This devilishly strong blond is slow-brewed to perfection with the finest ingredients for a heavenly taste. The 90-day brewing process results in a highly carbonated beer with incredible head retention. The same dedication, care, and commitment to quality that Duvel puts into the brewing of every bottle should be given to the serving of the beer. That’s why Duvel developed the first Belgian tulip glass in the 1960s to offer a more complete experience to this iconic beer.
