Tripel Karmeliet 0,33 Liter 1,79 EUR
Chimay Grande Reserve 2009, 0,75 Liter 5,99 EUR => I haven't tried this meself, but the oldest should be the best…
Kriek Boon (cherry) 0,75 Liter 4,99 EUR
Me: I can only buy St Feuillien Tripel, worth it? 0,75 Liter 3,99 EUR => Not really
St. Bernardus Abt 12, 0,33 Liter 1,89 EUR | St. Bernardus Tripel, 0,33 Liter 1,79 EUR
La Trappe Tripel, 0,33 Liter 1,69 EUR
Would you recommend the La Trappe Blond? => Just the Tripel…Trappistes Rochefort 8, 0,33 Liter 1,79 EUR => If you can get the 10, it's supposedly better (trying it tomorrow)
Also, where can I get hold of the obligatory beer glasses for Trappistenbier? Any reliable online sources? => I would check eBay really… Best glass imo is the WESTMALLE TRIPEL glass...
AND PLEASE TRY AND GET THE WESTMALLE TRIPEL!.. # 1 BELGIAN BEER
Thanks in advance! -
Lately I've been moving away from my usual dark beers and trending toward the lighter end of the spectrum. That's what you're supposed to do in the summer, right? Anyway, here are a couple I've had recently-
This one is only ok; the ginger flavor is a bit too strong for my liking. It tends to overpower the grapefruit, which is supposedly the headliner. Oh well, it goes down pretty quickly when it's nice and cold.
This one was a mistake on my part- when I buy beers that aren't big sellers, I usually check the label to make sure the bottle hasn't been sitting on the shelf gathering dust for ages. I was in a hurry and didn't do that this time. Turns out I grabbed a beer that's been, shall we say, "bottle conditioning" since October 2010… As a result, it was far more tart than I expected. Still drinkable, and not entirely bad, once you get adjusted to the sourness, but still a bit of a disappointment. Oh well.
Oh, and this reminds me- the bottle had both a cork and a cap. Seriously? Isn't that just a touch of overkill?

Such a light beer but still tough.

Local (Stoke) brew:
Titanic Steerage 3.8%. Perfect for not falling over in this warm weather.
(Titanic is the local brewery. The Captain of the Titanic, John Smith lived in Stoke. All the beers are named for this association. From Steerage, through to Wrecked (7.2)).

Went to Pub Italia in Ottawa last night and per Eli's suggestions tried the Westmalle Tripel and St Bernardus Abt 12. I have to recommend these and any suggestions by Eli. It was a great evening!
A nice 10°, perfect to fuck you over in this warm weather...
