What's your favorite Beer?

You weren't :). Yesterday I finished of the last of the Belgian ( and Dutch) beers I bought recently:
Very nice, more will be purchased…
Edited for my increased knowledge...

I'll have to find somewhere that sells it first :).

MP, La Trappe is actually a Dutch trappist beer…

Thanks for the info… If I'd checked the bottle closer I would have known earlier. But after working late last night my only thought was: "Beer in cupboard... Need to drink beer".
Edited original post to appear less ignorant (futile, but I do try ;)).

The (foolish) assumption was: beer brewed in abbeys = Belgian.
-
I think I once read on a box of Chimay that there are only 7 Trappist breweries in the world- 6 Belgian, one Dutch. So based on statistical averages, beer brewed in abbeys = Belgian is usually the right call.

From Wiki:
There are currently seven breweries that are allowed to have the products they sell display the Authentic Trappist Product logo:
Bières de Chimay
Brasserie d'Orval
Brasserie de Rochefort
Brouwerij der Trappisten van Westmalle
Brouwerij Westvleteren/St Sixtus
Brouwerij der Sint-Benedictusabdij de Achelse Kluis/Achel
Brouwerij de Koningshoeven/La TrappeOf course: then there are dozens and dozens of other abbey beers…
-
^Yep, but those abbey beers are commercialised beers and not actually brewed by monks … there probably will be an eight Trappist later this year called Stift Engelszell from Austria (they haven't officially been granted the label just yet) ...

St Feuillien blond. As you know I'm a HUGE fan of their extra blond dégustation beer, so was wondering what the normal blond would taste like. Well: it is enormeously good. Not a tripel, but still a 7.5° beer!.. This and the La Trappe tripel were the two beers I added to my shop's stock a week ago… Both passing with flying colours!..
