What's your favorite Beer?

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...

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?.. 

[Megatron1505]

A fair point 

[Chris]

And you think any of it will still be there now?  January was a long time ago for a lush like Giles.

[Giles]

That was like 10 weeks ago….....

[Seul]

Never forget… 01/ 2013 - 02/ 2013...

[Giles]

Well, I do have some left.

All the big (1.5L) bottles and a load of the baby bottles….

[Megatron1505]

See you in two weeks

My new favorite bar in Greenpoint Brooklyn.

Torst

200+ bottle beers and 21 taps

Just tried the draft De Struisse Pannepot. Pretty fucking good.

They call this the "flux capacitor," it controls the temp and pressure for each tap individually, I believe.

[Megatron1505]

^Heaven, right there 

[urbanwoodsman]

Apparently, they have a $1000 beer. Who's buying?
