            St Feuillien is becoming a hit at work, selling like crazy… If my brother's thirsty tonight, I might open the big bottle I have in my fridge... Been a while since I had it!..

                It's pretty good seeing as it's low in alcie at 7.5%, but there are tons of better blondes out there (and I don't mean [SFW] https://lh3.ggpht.com/_8PYnkPsYiZg/TK6SLTrsWVI/AAAAAAAABp4/gNpZi3vETJ8/s1600/pig.jpg )

                  Not good… Yes, you can taste the chocolate, no it's not a good mix/ unbalanced as fuck. Too bad!..

                      Ha. "Low" he says. Not a big fan of Belgian beer for the most part but at least they have ABV ideas I can relate to…

                      Think it, be it.

                        Well during the summer I regularly do beers under 6-7%… All other seasons I usually hover around 10-13% though... But it's still warm and sunny here, so this relatively light St Feuillien is a godsend right now  😘

                        And I'm wondering what Belgian beers you had that didn't impress you... I need names, McKleine!.. OR HEADS WILL ROLL!..

                          I just don't dig top fermentation and champagny bubbles. I can appreciate them, but if I'm drinking beer and taking that caloric hit, I want a big, hoppy over the top West Coast IPA with notes of citrus and pine resin. The bitterer the betterer.

                          If examples of this aren't available over there id gladly send some.

                          I do love a sour beer, red Flemish ales have rung my bell before.

                          We do a Belgian beer Fest here annually, I'll send the menu next time, would love to see how a Belgian regarded it.

                          Think it, be it.

                            Yeah, you should!..

                            As for really bitter beers, you'd love De Struise's ELLIOT BREW and Fantôme's BRISE-BONBONS!.. Just of the top of my head, there are lots more, but honestly I do not like these kind of beers so not very knowledgeable about 'm… But we have 'm!..  😃

                            And I'm sure you'd LOVE our geuzes!..

                              So on my way back from lunch I noticed a brewery is being constructed across the street from work. I think it may be Fulton, an outstanding local brewery. This will get ugly.

                              Think it, be it.

                                Seul, I found a tap list from a past Belgian beer Fest. Any standouts here?  Geez kinda weak looking, too many American beers.

                                  This is under 10 miles away from me… Tons of smaller breweries use this to try out their latest creations...

                                    McKleine:
                                    Oud Beersel Framboise (Sour, you will love this!)
                                    Struise Mikkeller (Elliot Brew) (The beer I mentioned!.. You'll love this!..)
                                    La Trappe Quad(ruple) (Give it a try!..)
                                    Cuvee Des Jacobins Rouge (Was too sour for my likings, but you might love it!..)
                                    Rodenbach Grand Cru (One of the best old brown sours…)
                                    Duchesse de Bourgogne (Solid old brown sour!)
                                    Liefmans Oud Bruin (very basic old brown sour, but decent)

                                    Out of the last three, I'd defo recommend the Rodenbach Grand Cru!.. The other, unmentioned Belgians aren't bad but nothing too crazy... The Malheur 12 is good if you're into strong, dark beers (12%)... Pity they don't serve the Malheur 10 (blonde, 10%)... Or the Liefmans Goudenband...

                                        Re-arranging the fridge… Decided it's much better to have the corked beers that I won't immediately consume, laying down and the ones that will be kept til next summer are stacked in the fridge. Constant temp of 7C° > dark stockroom of 18-20 C°...

                                        Stockroom (some of these have to move to my mate's cellar asap):

                                        Abusing a newfound shelf in my fridge… Max stacking for max pleasure...

                                        Overall… I had to stop filling the shelves cause they were getting warped  😠

                                            Almost better than the 10, one of my favorites so far. How old was your bottle Seul? Stuff looks fantastic.
