Summer and autumn beers…

Orval 2012. Brise-Bonbons and Westmalle Extra.

[Broark]

Ranger Creek is a nice little brewery, we get a good stock of their stuff here in Austin.

Orval!

Plums?

[Seul]

Yeah. Second try. Still don't like it.

Refreshing, quaffable, nothing extraordinary.

Be interesting to try. Do they do a Kriek as well?

BTW, glasses reached Oslo today. Only five sleeps til they're here in the frozen north. [emoji106]

Not my favourite of the flemish sours I've tried. Very dry though.

[Chris]

That actually is one of my favorites.  It's the one that turned me onto sour beers, in fact.

I love the sour+dry in Gueze, but prefer the sweeter Flemish sours and Oude Bruin. Not that I'm an expert. I've got another bottle or two so I'll see if I develop a taste for it.

Have you ever had the Duchesse de Bourgogne?

@jdl1279:

Knowing it was going to be a long day at the beach, I set myself up for a marathon beer drinking session.

This is far better than it likely has any right to be. Plus at 4.7% you really can drink them ALL DAY

I missed closing time at my the state licensed monopoly (the only place to get good stuff) and had to resort to the local supermarket (which I hate because they only have shite). But low and behold they had this. You're spot on, lad. It's far tastier than it should be and pretty damn good after lugging rocks about all day in 25 C.

Both the Session IPA and their regular Centennial are great. Had a bunch yesterday. Gonna poor a Mangofeber DIPA in a minute. Might be interesting..

Meh, the Mango DIPA wasn't great. Certainly not interesting. Won't buy again at USD 5..

Still raining…

[jdl1279]

Founders is just damn hard to beat. I cannot say I have had anything from them that was not at least passable.

This is good

My personal fave.

I have, though it's been several months, perhaps a year.  I liked it, probably should give it another try to refresh my memory.

On an unrelated note, I picked up two bottles of what might be my all time favorite beer- Tart Of Darkness from The Bruery.  Now I'm kicking myself for not getting more.

This is pretty much how I like my IPAs best: vinous and slightly tart.

And I'm sorry for using the word vinous.

Huh… Turns out you like your IPA's like I like my women... Go figure.
