      Almost sour season here, very excited!
      Think I'm going to open my older bottle of Mirror Mirror tonight, been a long time coming…

        2013 edition of Verzet's Oud Bruin. Tart and acetic, vegetal and funky. Head and lacing effectively absent, still crisp carbonation. I think I'll get more.

        Think it, be it.

              My brother bought two cases of Tap 7 and one of Tap 5 for his scratchjam and his barbeque. I taught him well.

                I'd rate it about 3.7/ 5… Big fizzy coke-like head that disappears almost entirely, beautiful red hue, quad colour, good smell, medium bodied, bit boozy aftertaste... All in all I reckon aging it will help...

                    Curious to hear what you think of the Betelgueze.  I liked it, but didn't think it was worth buying again, since it was pretty damn expensive.

                        My favourite beer is a local one from here in Perth, Australia called Hop Hog.  Somewhere between an American pale ale and IPA, on the sweeter and fruitier side of things:

                        Don't think it's distributed overseas.. Favourite beers of mine that non Australians may be familiar with are Sierra Nevada pale and Weihenstephan Hefe.

                          For obvious reasons, I already love the Hop Hog…  🙂

                            I would guess from your last couple of posts in this thread that you're in Belgium? and you can get Hop Hop? I'm impressed! Until recently you could barely get it in liquor stores here where it's from! The brewery, Feral, really punch above their weight.  Hop Hog won a reasonably big Australia wide beer poll, not bad for a brewery in the outskirts of little old Perth. I've got a visit booked in for next weekend.  I'll be sampling their annual "Tusk" IIPA, which I'm really looking forward to:

                              I meant that I love it cause I love hogs… Haven't seen it for sale here...

                              That Tusk looks good as well...

                                  I'm a big fan of founders.. they started cold linked distribution to Perth about 6 months ago.  Loving the all day IPA.

                                      Think I paid 16 bucks for it, hopefully it's worthwhile.

                                        Drank most of these. Best in show was (prepare to be shocked) Crooked Stave Nightmare on Brett. I'll discuss others later. The Allagash and the Almanac were outstanding as well. I finished the night with my first Blind Pig. Russian River Rules

                                        Think it, be it.

                                            I think I paid $17, so about the same. It was good, just that I've had similar and better beers for less.  So for me, it was worth trying, just not worth having again.
