Gift to myself, a sweet li'l Kriek…

[mclaincausey]

That would probably be right up my alley.

[Seul]

I dunno: do you wear panties and skirts?.. Cause this is some girly stuff right here!.. I'm bitching about my day at work to my brother because of it!.. I also think I look fat!..

[mclaincausey]

Oh, I was fooled by the brut and the kriek. Was picturing dry and sour.

[Seul]

If ya want dry and sour, I can help ya… Oh yes I can... Currently in the fridge waiting to be picked by Lord Drinkalot...

[mclaincausey]

Nice–I really love extremely bitter, extremely dry, and extremely sour beers

[Seul]

Oof - there are plenty of really good sours here… Have you ever had a Gueuze?.. It's not extremely sour, but it is one of the members of the Sour Family I really enjoy... That barn and manure smell... It's so Belgian  - and not even possible to make outside of one certain part in Belgium!..

Oh man all this talk makes me long for Geers.. Going back somewhere next week btw… Need more of the 3 Fonteinen Oude Geuze damnit!..

[mclaincausey]

I've not–I might be able to find it though, I will keep an eye out!

[Seul]

Had to go to work cause I forgot me bananas yesterday… Decided to pick up some stuff, y'know, as I was there after all...

[returningson]

that intense red is actually good stuff. Might take some convincing on your part for others to try it but its very good!

Some REAL Belgian stuff!..

Geuze: Hanssens, Girardin, Boon, 3 Fonteinen, De Cam, Oud Beersel

Old Brown: Bacchus

[Seul]

Follow-up post, checking the receipt…

Gueuze De Cam: 3.15 €
Gueuze Hanssens: 3.25 €
Gueuze 3 Fonteinen: 2.28 € !!!

Means that the 3 Fonteinen costs just slightly more than the gueuze Boon!.. But the difference in quality is astonishing... The Girardin and Boon are the cheapest (1.81 and 1.80)...

This is gonne be fun... I've had a couple of these before, but I remember when I drank the 3 Fonteinen I immediately thought "This is the best beer I've ever had"...

Some amazing beers made down here in NZ

http://www.ratebeer.com/beer/liberty-renalls-towards-muriwai/183469/

This one here is probably extinct.  A touching story if you read it though, the brewer made a beer "with fuckloads of booze and interesting flavors" for his 12th aniversery with his wife.

Same brewery but very much alive, a fantastic example of a new world imperial IPA. Good to get your buzz on by itself or pair with extremely spicy food for a great time.

fantastic NZ take on a Russian imperial stout - I have heard reports of this selling for $80 US a 500 mil bottle in america of course here we get it for about 8 pounds (im converting) a bottle in a bar.

finally

Made by some friends of mine not far from where I type this, Bourbon barrel aged porter and tastes every bit its 12.8%

[Seul]

Shit - I wanna try that Muriwai…

[samnz]

I did have a bottle of the Rennalls towards Muriwai that i was going to cellar but i might have drunk it with a lady friend several months ago. In hindsight I think I would have rather had the bottle; not that it wasn't a good time.

I'm aware of 3 more bottles in captivity. Though murder is probable the only way to get one

I see you like the more sour beer going up the page a bit.

http://www.ratebeer.com/beer/mikkeller-blondeaux/173110/

One of my favourite beers on the sour end of the spectrum. Probably easier to source your way then it is down here.
