      @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**

      • easy: anything but the coffee stout…  😃

      • Speedway Stout
      • Barrel Aged Speedway Stout (doesn't matter what it's aged in)
      • Old Numbskull
      • Old Numbskull Barrel Aged (again: doesn't matter in what)

                    Extra sugars for higher ABV and local malts for a bit of added taste and to calm the sweetness.

                                          Giles went a bit nuts and bought a whole box of it…

                                          http://www.ratebeer.com/beer/de-dolle-dulle-teve-10-mad-bitch/6875/

                                          On the other hand, it's good to age:

                                          De Dulle Teve keeps two to three years without major changes in taste. Further maturing, up to 10 years, will cause it to darken a little and lose some of its bitterness. The bittering of about 30 IBU is due to Goldings hops in the brew kettle.

                                          Having this'un… Great syrup-y texture, always a fan of that...
