What's your favorite Beer?

@Seul:

7.2%?.. That the best you got?.. 

That was the strongest dark they had on draft. The strongest beer ever brewed was released by Brewdog a few years ago… 'The End of History', 50% ABV, sadly I never got round to picking a bottle up :(.

If you can get to a Brewdog bar, it's well worth it. It won't be a cheap experience but you will find something you enjoy.

McKleine: drinking Grand Cru out of a La Trappe glass?.. Excellent!.. You should post more ITT mate!!!

Me?.. I scored an older Rodenbach GC glass this morning at the fleemarket for 0.5 €… Decided it was time to finally open my Vintage 2010... Fans of sour, complex beer, TAKE HEED!.. This is spectacularly good!!!

Yeah that goblet was what they put it in at the bar. Place called Muddy Pig, great food too. It's down the block from the place I posted about that does a Belgian Beer Fest. Both great tap houses. This is in St. Paul so I don't go there often.

If you liked the St Bernardus Abt 12, try and score some Rochefort 8 or 10… The 10 is one of my fav brews...

[mclaincausey]

I've had the 8, I'll look for the 10. I do love Bernardus, thanks for the pointer!

You'd love Westvleteren XII… I'm trying to score two cases by the end of the year (pciking them up at the abbey), if I manage to do so, I'll send you a bottle... Pinky swear!..

I've been wanting to read that since Michael Jackson waxed poetic on it. Would love to try, and would try to find something similarly rare from here in exchange.

So I picked this up the other day because you and others rave about it.  I'm definitely not a beer aficionado, more of a wine guy, but Fred I would give it a go.  I don't have the proper beer glass and have no idea about the right temperature to serve at.  Looking for your expert advice on alternative glass and temperature.

[Seul]

Anything that resembles the OG glass will suffice…

Pour slowly and steadily. Don't pour the leftover yeast residu in the glass (if you pour slowly, you can see the dark residu at the bottom sliding up; stop pouring there). Drink at 12-14C°. Don't eat anything whilst or before tasting. If you like wine, you'll like (this) beer. I wouldn't be able to make a choice between wine or beer…

Oh: and and enjoy... It's one of the best commercial beers out there...

Thanks Seul.  I'll let you know…

Crappy pic (cell bitch), but you get the idea… Dulle Teve (translates to: mad bitch) triple. This is EXTREMELY good...

found another "store" (not as well sorted as the other one though…and a bit more expensive as well!)

[Seul]

Stick to the other shop, Rafa…

I have some of that in my fridge right now. Good weather for it too.

Our new retailer from Belgium has come to visit for a couple of days.  He came bearing a gift, I think we'll get on together…....

[Seul]

Only one decent beer in the lot, though (Straffe Hendrik Tripel)…

One of my fav beers, and my fav La Trappe (minus the oak aged verion of this)... Quadrupel, 10%, beautiful red shade to it...

[Giles]

The difference is, if it's wet, I'll probably drink and enjoy…...
