        Paging Dean Seul,

        Should I buy 9 bottles of Gouden Carolus Christmas without even knowing how it tastes? Is it worth the money? You know I'm a sucker for Cuvee van de Keizer. Is it similarly good? I always trust your recommendations and haven't been disappointed yet.

          In short: yes. What's the BBE date?.. It's not as good as the Cuvée v/d Keizer, but it's tremendously good, especially on those cold, snowy days  🙂

            I guess for this price I can't go wrong, right? 😃

                  Hey Seul,

                  yes I have tried the Rochefort 10. It took me 3 attempts to fully appreciate the taste. How do you drink it? Cold (let's say around 4-5°C), rather cold, rather warm, at room temperature?
                  The Bush Noël is on my to buy list. Saw your pics from post #1894 in this thread, where you stated that you need to visit Geers again.
                  Never tried the Abbaye des Rocs Speciale Noël, but will order it as well. Along with the St. Bernardus Christmas Ale and Malheur 10. However, I'm not quite fond of Geuzes. Tried a bottle of Liefmans Goudenbrand and didn't like the taste. I'm talking about the bottle wrapped in blue paper. As you mentioned before, Geuzes are an acquired taste.

                  Holy fuck this winter will be awesome. This is my to buy list:
                  Houblon Chouffe Dobbelen IPA Tripel
                  BrewDog Punk IPA
                  Crew Ale IPA India Pale Ale
                  Ratsherrn Pale Ale
                  Häffner Hopfenstopfer Seasonal Special Ale
                  Propeller Aufwind Double IPA
                  Dubuisson Bush de Noël
                  Gouden Carolus Christmas
                  Abbaye des Rocs Speciale Noël
                  St. Bernardus Christmas Ale
                  Malheur 10

                  Cheers

                    Goudenband is an old brown, not a geuze… But if you don't like the sour beers (yet), then don't try geuze...

                    Rochefort - funny that you should mention this... Spent two hours warming up, at around 12-14 C° now...

                      Ah I understand. So Goudenbrand is an old brown. Will try a geuze eventually.
                      Also, will give your preparation regarding Rochefort 10 a try. Who knows, maybe my learning curve will show an exponential growth 🙂

                                  I've just picked up some new beer.  I think it's time for a full scale reorganization of my beer fridge.  At this point, I'm not even fully certain what's lurking in there.
