Duvel, which already sells about 60,000 barrels of its "strong golden ale" in this country, hopes to expand its U.S. presence further. It also recently bought a small brewery, Brewery Ommegang, based in Cooperstown, N.Y. "Our path for growth became abundantly clear as I got to know John and Boulevard," Michel Moortgat, CEO of Duvel, said in a statement. "Our companies share the same values. We have great mutual respect for each other's achievements and maintain a deeply held belief in exceptional quality as the platform for long-term success." ___ Information from: The Kansas City Star, http://www.kcstar.com/
