What's your favorite Beer?
-
You do?.. I mean: it's not bad ey… But I expected it to be less sweet... Can you recommend me a more sour Faro, C?.. Not too sour though (keep in mind I find the Petrus Aged pale too sour)...
Ok so apéritive:
Pretty good, creamy, not too heavy beer (7.6°)… Apparently made by Chimay for Mont des Cats... They were gonna be the new AUTHENTIC TRIPLE PRODUCT but haven't heard from that... No ATP logo on the bottle... Still, worth it if you can try it... Too low in alcie % (not enough body) to stand out though...
-
Oh, don't get me wrong, I'm not saying it's great, but it's not terrible. It is very sweet, you're right about that. Gotta be in the right mood to drink it, like when you're looking for dessert
Can't recommend a better one, sorry. That's the only one I've found around here.
May have a couple for you to try soon- Nevada had different beer distributors, do I've got a dozen or so bottles of things I haven't seen in Texas, including some interesting looking Belgian ones.

I like my life sweet and my beer bitter. Or sour. That said, I can handle certain dry fruit lambics.

Seul, Faro is brewed with candy sugar and wild yeast, it's a very interesting beer and really great about once a year. Good after a rich meal for desert. It's the ice wine of the beer world. I'm currently drinking a canned Belgian style Tripel that's brewed in Wichita, KS. Surprisingly delishious.
(I love when she wants to drive the big truck.)

Yeah I know it has candy sugar, but the Lindemans also has artificial sweeteners added… So I'm hoping there's a less sweet Faro out there... Gonna try the Cantillon Faro for starters... It is a really nice drink on itself though... Excellent for warmer weather...
PS: that motherfucking Rolex... And Lori... There is no drink in your pic...
-
So… Re-visited the Lindemans Faro... This time I followed the advice to serve it chilled (5C°)... Even put it in the freezer for five minutes prior to pouring... Result?.. Delicious stuff, very refreshing, lotsa taste, bit too sweet but when sitting out in the sun that's not really an issue... Can't wait to try other Faros!..
Then it was time for the real stuff, of course…

That one is quite sour; good, but definitely sour.
-
