      Oh, don't get me wrong, I'm not saying it's great, but it's not terrible.  It is very sweet, you're right about that.  Gotta be in the right mood to drink it, like when you're looking for dessert

      Can't recommend a better one, sorry.  That's the only one I've found around here.

      May have a couple for you to try soon- Nevada had different beer distributors, do I've got a dozen or so bottles of things I haven't seen in Texas, including some interesting looking Belgian ones.

          I like my life sweet and my beer bitter. Or sour. That said, I can handle certain dry fruit lambics.

          Think it, be it.

              Seul, Faro is brewed with candy sugar and wild yeast, it's a very interesting beer and really great about once a year. Good after a rich meal for desert. It's the ice wine of the beer world. I'm currently drinking a canned Belgian style Tripel that's brewed in Wichita, KS. Surprisingly delishious.

              (I love when she wants to drive the big truck.)

                Yeah I know it has candy sugar, but the Lindemans also has artificial sweeteners added… So I'm hoping there's a less sweet Faro out there... Gonna try the Cantillon Faro for starters... It is a really nice drink on itself though... Excellent for warmer weather...

                PS: that motherfucking Rolex... And Lori... There is no drink in your pic...

                      Doing my homework… Apparently the best Faro is:

                      • Cantillon
                      • 3 Fonteinen
                      • De Cam Oude Faro (old Faro)

                      Going back to Geers this Thursday...  ::) Getting lots of Liefmans Goudenband as well (and one for a certain faux-Texan).

                        So… Re-visited the Lindemans Faro... This time I followed the advice to serve it chilled (5C°)... Even put it in the freezer for five minutes prior to pouring... Result?.. Delicious stuff, very refreshing, lotsa taste, bit too sweet but when sitting out in the sun that's not really an issue... Can't wait to try other Faros!..

                        Then it was time for the real stuff, of course…

                              That one is quite sour; good, but definitely sour.

                                The Cuvée René?.. Weird cause I bought it because the reviews at Ratebeer described it mostly as medium-sour and sour but not acidic… Ah well: we'll see... Of course, the commercial description is wonderful:

                                A golden hue sets off the wonderful almost champagne like taste.

                                  I have so many beers to try out this week and well, basically the whole summer… I'm really enjoying every sip and every beer... And I'm forcing myself to get into new tastes and new styles... I mean: I only started drinking brown beers at the end of 2012... Got a long way to go  🙂
