What's your favorite Beer?

That does sound interesting, and I agree with you about Dogfish Head.  Best thing to ever come out of Delaware.

^ Almost bought some last week. How different is it to the bog standard Hobgoblin??

Much nicer. Very smooth. It's only £1.75 at Morrisons atm.

Going to Geers with my mate, it's his first time. My brother's coming as well. And all I have to do is spend their money…

[Seul]

My mate spent 70, my brother 30, and I spent 22 € on these two…

[JamesMarg]

Thats a bit more expensive that your usual drop Seul?
Must be pretty special!

Six for the Achel (for which I am so massively stoked I don't think anyone would comprehend haha), and 16 for the Rio Reserva 2009. The latter underwent a crazy complicated process, and it should be worth it… I've been eyeballing this for about a year now... A friendly Dutch fella next to me in Geers, noticed me looking and lovingly caressing the Pannepot and Rye Triples, and told me to get this bottle... So I gave in...

Oh how i envy your selection!

[Seul]

It's costing me a ton of money though - maybe it should be as rare and as expensive as over there…  :-\

[JamesMarg]

Nothing wrong with spending money on things that you're really passionate about and enjoy!
Thats why most of us are here i guess, because we have an eye for the best of the best.

Last thing I think about when enjoying a phenomenal brew, is how much it cost…

However I  will try (I said TRY!) and empty my fridge prior to going to Geers again...

[JamesMarg]

We know that will never happen
Thats like saying you wont buy any more IH until all of your current stuff wears out (Which will NEVER HAPPEN! :D)

Tried the Rochefort 10 today. Took it out of the fridge, let it warm up for 2 hours (Dean Seul style), poured it in the Westmalle glass. Tasted better than straight out of the fridge. Somehow there was no bitterness to it. Complex aromas (can't bother to type which ones, wouldn't matter anyway), warm finish without an overwhelming taste of alcohol. In summary: I like! Now that I have established a specific drinking routine for it, I' ll definitely stock up on some Rochefort 10. If you can, you should try it!

Good to hear!.. I'm having a bottle of Gouden Carolus Cuvée van de Keizer (blue) tonight… Oh dear God I can hardly wait... 

[seren]

Enjoy bro! I can't wait to try the Christmas Ales. Have to pick up my last order from the post office. 21 kg, ugh. Will post pics when I can. Peace
