What's your favorite Beer?

[Seul]

Having fun with the other beers in my fridge… Gonna taste it soon...

Holy cow… Loving this'un...

This is downright next level… This costs less than 5 € for a big bottle... As good as Rochefort10 I'd say... At least as good...  ??? Colour is a deep rusty brown with a slight red hue... Yes: I can get poetic about a good drink's colour... Yesterday I spent a good ten minutes staring at the colour of the glass of red I was having... My favourite red, that is...

Bonus pic of the red I'm talking about… Costs about 15 €/ bottle.

I could with a few of those right now…....

11°… Reckon a 75 cl. bottle will do, no?.. This is the blue (brown) version btw... Have the red (blond) version in the fridge... But am more partial to brown beers these days...

The wine is (hold on!) 16° btw

I guess I'll have to visit Belgium for some great beers early in 2013!…

Truly it is Christmas day: Brew Dog IPA in a champagne saucer:

My wife got me some nice beer glasses for Christmas.. Need to make a trip as soon as the holidays settle down and get a variety of beers for the fridge!

So my dad got this bottle from his brother in law… He gave it to me... I've no idea what it's called... I open it: tons of delicious scents... I pour it: fucking foam's exactly like that of a Rochefort 10... It's a bit dryer though, bit sour even... And not as complex... But as this was apparently made at home by a beer afficionado, it's not bad at all!..

I've named it THE PANSY KNIGHT… As it goes down without a fight...

Fina-fucking-ly…

can't wait to see Giles post in here!

Me neither… Here's to hoping he likes my picks  :o

It'll be very similar to Seuls posts.  Though we do not have all the correct glasses.  We tried to buy as many as possible today, but we failed on 2 counts…

1)  They did not have a pair of every glass we wanted/needed
2)  They woud not let us pay for them but gave them to us as gifts.....

Jeez, these Belgish, I may have to come back.......

Just out of curiosity- are there any restrictions on transporting that much beer across borders?  Pretty sure moving that much beer across state lines requires a liquor license here in the US.

Not within the European Union.  You are allowed to transport enough tobacco and alcohol as you like as long as it is for "personal use".  "Personal use" is not exactly a tight definition so does lead to some farcical situations.  Taxes on booze and baccy are very high in the UK, so "booze and baccy" runs to the continent are part of our culture…..
