What's your favorite Beer?

[llvlaglne]

eli- how fast can you pop open the Leffe? i hate taking off the gold aluminum foil

[Seul]

Oh that's easy: (I) don't drink Leffe…

(Or always carry a knife...)

[llvlaglne]

after trying it, i never bought it again cause that aluminum foil…..

[Seul]

Thank fuck for that… You should focus on some good Belgian beer instead 

[Anesthetist]

Wouldn't say it's my absolute favorite (ranks up there tho), but I do enjoy Samuel Smith products. I especially like the Taddy Porter.

Just drinking a Hendricks Straffe Quadrupel. This plus the effects of jet lag have almost induced a coma on me. Big to Pig Man for the hook up

Testing Norwegian beers tonight….

Started with this one,

Then had a few of these,

[Megatron1505]

What did you think of Hansa, I drank quite a bit of it on a trip to Norway a few years back…..it was nothing special in my opinion, but at Norwegian beer prices it was almost reasonable at £8 ($12) a pint.

[tmg]

The Hansa was OK, preferred the Borg, but had to have 4 or 5 to decide

Trying this GULDEN DRAAK Quadrupel… It's nothing special, really... Too bad...

[Megatron1505]

Realised that I never gave my opinion of the Straffe Hendricks. Well, I was never sold on the big love for Belgian beers, but this totally changed things for me, amazing beer with a beautiful strong, dark, heavy taste.

I'm saving my second Seul bottle for the CSM, when I will celebrate the arrival of the MBB's, and commencement of the HWDC on April 1st 

[Seul]

I will have to ship you some Rochefort 10 though… Because:

• I shipped you Rochefort 8 as I was out of 10
• 8 is good, 10 is better
• SH quadrupel is good, 10 is (much) better
• tbh there aren't many beers better than 10 (that are regularly found in Belgium, I mean), except for the Gouden Carolus "Cuvée van de keizer" blue ribboned big bottles... This of course being a very personal opinion...

[Megatron1505]

Seul, if you can ship me a couple of bottles of that before the CSM, I will happily share them with G…..we will need it. PM me the costs dude 

[Seul]

I'll see what I can do… Main problem being that I tossed away all my packing materials... 

[Chris]

Did you send Mega any of that Bush Prestige?  That stuff is just stellar.

[Seul]

I bought him a bottle actually, but wasn't able to pack it with the materials I had… 

[Megatron1505]

Exact opposite problem to me Eli, I have loads of packing materials, and no beer 

Want me to send you an empty box and some bubble wrap 

[Seul]

I'll have a good look around in the depot tomorrow - should be able to find something nice…

You could also raid Giles' cellar of course... Didn't he buy 500 € worth of beer in Belgium in January?..
