What's your favorite Beer?

[emceeQ]

I was just at the Jolly Pumpkin in Ann Arbor for lunch for Wednesday.  The Oro de Calabazza is a great beer…

[irishexpat]

Yeah, its 2 blocks from my place. It's good stuff.

[ohighyo]

Jolly pumpkin is sweet. It's the one restaurant/brewery I miss in Ann Arbor

Prickly pear was decent

Tried out a damn tasty beer last night at dinner.

[irishexpat]

ah, la fin du monde. delicious, easy to find, and got me into the high-volume belgian ale scene. It's a really good, easy drinking beer.

sláinte!

Shared one with my dad. Couldn't help but pour in some residue (it started halfway through, wasn't gonna sink alf a bottle of Westy 12)… This didn't help with the taste (slightly more bitter)... Too warm as well... My dad has a lot to learn!.. But yeah: all in all a pretty decent beer  ::)

[Seul]

Cheers!..

You set me on the line with Cantillon. Shared it with my father as well. THANKS!

[Seul]

Cantillon geuze?.. Hope you liked it!..

[Aetas]

Yes indeed! Coming from german industrial beer, needs a change in in tasting, but I liked it very much.

[Seul]

Ah yes - quite the change in taste indeed!.. But once you've grown accustomed to it, you'll love it even more!.. Geuze is easily the best product made in Belgium…

Brew Dog - Nottingham - Cantillon Geuze - Happy

Yeah it's pretty good… Not my fav but still a top quality product  The stomache should react well to geuze, Gav... It should make you HUNGRY!..

[Seul]

I can't decide what to have tonight… It's still early, though...  ::)

[JamesMarg]

Now that's when you know that you have too many options!

Consumed a large Ramen noodle box straight after…..all good this morning despite a 10 hour drinking session.....food helped I think.

@JamesMarg:

Now that's when you know that you have too many options!

Well… I'll give you a glimpse into how my brain works...

• checked the crate in the stockroom, refilled XXX Rye Reserva Tripel BBA 2012 and Pannepot 2013, counted how many other bottles in it are mine... Only four, the others are my brother's... Cool: stock room area CLEAR...

• fridge: full... There's room for the two bottles but that's about... Options options options... Bush X-Mas?.. Yeah but that's 12 %, gotta work tomorrow... Black Albert, perhaps?.. That's 13, you bitch!.. Corsendonk X-Mas?.. Probably... 8.1%... Maybe a Gouden Carolus X-Mas @10.5%?.. Damn: do I still have a Pannepeut left?.. Nope... Some Pannepot 2013 though... Mmm... Had one this week... Oh shit: I have a bottle of Tsjeeses Reserva PBA left!.. Fuck, and a La Trappe Quadrupel!.. Brain filled with options, fridge closed, CLEAR!..

So yeah: Corsendonk X-Mas, Tsjeeses Reserva PBA, Gouden Carolus X-Mas, La Trappe Quadrupel or Bush X-Mas... Kinda narrowed it down, I guess... Who wants to pick for me?..

[Megatron1505]

Bush X-Mas 

[Seul]

I'm tempted… Oh and I'm able to order this for my store!.. Got the good news Friday!.. 5.21 € for a 4-pack!.. Beautiful!.. Already cleared some room next to the Pêche-Mel, Ambrée and Blonde 

Hopefully I can order the Premium, re-fermented Bush de Noël, kicking in at a whopping 13%!.. Big bottles only though...

I stumbled upon a craft beer store in Hamburg yesterday. Went out with Horn Dog Wine Ale (10%) and Belhaven Scottish Ale. They also had a lot of belgian beers, so even though  I am still struggeling with liking beer, I'm making some progress. And they had Rogues and Trappistes (triples and quadruples and so on), I was quite surprised to sse all the stuff I picked up in this thread from time to time.

They have much more in the store than online, but here's their website http://craftbeerstore.de/

Any hints what to try out? keep in mind I'm coming from whisky and like malt better than hop.
