      @Chris:

      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…..

          And there's the difference- due to our Prohibition and bootlegger history, quantities are explicitly laid out, to avoid "misunderstandings".

                I just rip the cork out with my teeth.  Corkscrews are for girlish little Euro-swine.

                    No, that is one of the ones that will have to wait for next time, but I am now savouring this (in the wrong glass)…..

                        I'm a bit disappointed with G for going to Belgium and making it "all about the beer", I mean there's so much more to Belgium like…....errr..........y'know........Poirot............Jean Claude Van Damme..........bestiality......

                          Actually Giles was stationed in Aalst, the hometown of my fav writer, Louis-Paul Boon… Socialist, pervert (he left a collection of 22,000 + pics of young, naked girls), hardworking man... Who sure as fuck loved his booze... I forgot to tell G to look for some translated books of him...

                              I was just at World Market with the wife in the beer section thinking "what would Eli grab?"

                                I like the prices on those d666… I mean, it's cheaper here, but I know for a fact those prices are low compared to other int'l stores... Plus: big Quadrupel bottle?.. Well fuck me… I've never had one of those before!..  😃

                                    Got one in my fridge!

                                    I had a few nice ones over the holiday, but now that I am looking at the pictures, they are all crap, probably because I was having too much fun drinking and being merry.

                                      I just remembered I had a dream about beer glasses… Something about a Gouden Carolus glass...  :o

                                      Anyhow... These days this is my go-to beer... Rochefort 8 and 10...

                                          How about that Cuvee van de keizer though, G?.. Isn't it downright amazing?..
