      That brewery had me confused for a long time… It still does... Here's why...

      • Ommegang is a beer here in Belgium as well
      • Ommegang (US) is owned by Moortgat-Duvel (BE)
      • Ommegang (US) makes beers with names such as Rare Vos (Flemish) and Goudenhop (Dutch for Golden hop)

      Big difference is that Ommegang (BE) is brewed by Haacht, and it sucks, whilst Ommegang (US) makes several brilliant beers...

      Oh: and I haven't had a chance to taste any of their beers, but going by memory, the ones that interested me most were Hennepin and Three Philosophers.

        Yeah the Hennepin, Rare Vos, and Three Philosophers (among others) are all available, and at reasonable prices.

        Likely would have jumped on it had Weyerbacher not been calling my name

            The Blithering Idiot barleywine….which is phenomenal. They were another brewer I hadn't tried, but had heard great things. This shop has been stepping it up bringing in new stuff of late and it had gotten hard to keep up. They even have tapped your market more, including a few more trappists and some Delirium

              Three Philosophers is good.  I think the only other one from Ommegang I've had was one of their Game Of Thrones special editions, can't remember which one.  I do remember it was strongly alcoholic tasting, which I didn't particularly like.

                This system is a couple years old now but I think it's kinda neat.


                The cup has a small washer around a hole in the bottom. When the spigot seal breaks, a magnet closes the cup. It's a gimmick but cool to watch.

                  Just now drinking a Prarie Christmas Bomb from last year, tastes much much better after some time.
                  Glad I stocked up!

                        I blame the (amazing) mango/ pumpkin soup I had before it to not being able to taste much…

                          Big shout out to the Belgian beer god, Seul. Thanks for sorting me out, sir! Looking forward to pouring delicousness into these, (starting tonight with the footie).

                            Green Flash West Coast IPA is a super solid DIPA. Almost goes down too smoothly..

                                2012 Orval. Aged beautifully. Yeastier and drier. Smell is infinitely better than a fresh bottle, but taste isn't imo…

                                      It's by far the best Nogne O beer I've had… It's in fact the best beer I've had in a long time...
