      It's anything but my favourite, but beggars can't be choosers…..

        The view must take away some of the pain….

        Those are my principles, and if you don't like them…
        Well, I have others.

              Guys, suz for this, but I'm selling two bottles of beer on eBay… Spent way too much in December...

              Selling:

              *** Cantillon Lou Pepe geuze 2010 750ml

              • 3 Fonteinen Hommage 2014 750ml**

              I combine shipping - so 16 for both bottles to €urope, 32 to the States. Tracked priority airmail!..

                Much more bitter/ dry than I had expected. Waiting for the port and bourbon to kick in…

                    Heading out to Jester King this morning, going to hopefully pick up bottles of their new releases.
                    Two collaborations, one with Evil Twin and one with Prairie.
                    Hopefully will pick up some glassware and other beers, pictures to come!

                        I'm very fortunate to live near one of the best breweries in the US (in my opinion), and I've actually got a Saturday off from work for a change so I'll get to make it out there.
                        Probably won't be able to resist having a pour of each as well. 
                        Every time I go out there I try to limit myself and it never happens.

                              So here's the line, I got there around 11:30. There were a few hundred behind me by the time I was getting my beers.  Probably the craziest release I've seen at Jester King.

                              And here's my haul, got both the special release beers (corresponding mug and glass too) and a couple other Jester King beers that I haven't had yet.

                              Here's some info on Snörkel:http://jesterkingbrewery.com/introducing-jester-king-snoerkel

                              Cheers!

                                  Had to use my new glassware too.  🙂

                                    My local beer store just started stocking the full Thornbridge range, I can see that getting really expensive.

                                    A particular favourite of mine….

                                    This is also great...

                                    http://www.ratebeer.com/beer/thornbridge-halcyon/84956/

                                    The Brewery itself is only about 20 miles from me, I must pay a visit one day.

                                    Made in England, clothed in Japan, fed in America and drunk in Belgium !

                                      I just had the Jaipur a few weeks ago, really enjoyed the beer.
                                      I feel like more small English and Belgian beers are showing up in Texas lately, I'm open to trying them!
                                      Just not super familiar with them yet.

                                        Tried almost every beer on this menu last night

                                        Standouts included Crooked Stave Nightmare on Brett and Breakside La Tormenta. The former is among the finest examples of an American Sour I've had. It's aged in Leopold Brothers whiskey barrels. Not the only example of cross pollination between local distillers and brewers here,  but a great one. La Tormenta is hoppy and more reserved on the sourness, and would make a great session beer.

                                        Ska Cru d'Etat was deplorable. Entirely too cloyingly sweet.

                                        On the hoppy side the Stone Best By was great.

                                        Think it, be it.

                                          Did you try the Perennial? I live about 10 minutes from their brewery. They make a lot of great beers (as well as a few so-so beers). I haven't seen the Last Word anywhere though.

                                            Bought Batch 12 and 14… About 10 € for a 37.5 cl bottle... Nope: barrel aging a rather bland, unbalanced beer isn't resulting into anything special... Poured it in the sink...
