      imho those are the best beers on that list, with the R10 being a personal favourite of mine. The Marriage Parfait is a little sour, but no so much as the other Gauze in their stock, a great introduction to Lambics.

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

        Rodenbach Grand Cru is also a solid pick up.  Good example of a sour red.  Concur on Mega's suggestions.

          Second the Rochefort10, albeit pricey here, it's seriously awesome!!! Chimay Blue is also pretty tasty. Wish there was a better Belgian selection here, not that we lack good brews, just that there's something seriously special about the good ones.

              If you buy all these, you'll have a good idea of what Belgian beer is about… There's blond, saison, sour, Flemish Old Brown, triple, quadrupel, and amber... In all kinds of alc %... Enjoy!..

              PS: please don't buy Kwak...

                      I always underestimated the Pannepot Reserva… But I finally came round after having had two 2010s that were superb...

                      I might have to give the Pannepeut another go as well...

                        I just find that R10 and Chimay Blue are more consistently good.

                            @urbanwoodsman - you asked me to give you a list of US beers I'd like… This is very hard for me, as I only know of a couple I really want... Plus I have no idea how hard some are to find, or how much they cost... It's different over there, it seems... Here even the rare beers don't cost much... Struise beers are around 2-3 €, big bottles of theirs don't cost more than 11-18€... Cantillon big bottles cost 10 €. Westvleteren can easily be bought outside of the bar of the monastery for about 3 € for the XII... There are, of course, exceptions...

                            Anyway... Here we go... I'll try and keep it a bit organised...

                            *** Bourbon County**
