            Just copped some Ommegang Three Philosophers and Founders reDANKulous. Been waiting all summer for the latter. Cannot speak to how excited I am to crack these

              The Vichtenaar is very similar to Duchesse De Bourgogne. It's got that contrast of brown sugar sweetness and malt vinegar sourness. Quite well balanced but less boozy than the DdB. I'll probably stick with DdB in the future. Just a touch more full bodied.

                Tasty, light Saison. Clean and refreshing at the start with a bit of dirty yeast at the end. Enjoying it in the sun. Have a good weekend, people.

                        Really intruiging beer... Love the oak characters... Wine barreled beers are almost always a hit with me... Because they're also partially accomodating the wino in me...

                            What's the ABV on that if it's an impy? 9-10%? Looks boss. I'll have to try and score some.

                            These guys are on my must try list… How does the cost escalate if they're considered "vintage"?

                              Well I'll let you know…  😃 My first vintage... Only seen 'm online...

                              Probably going on a whole beer-related trip btw... 3 Fonteinen to Lille (https://www.saveur-biere.com/fr/) to pick up some big arse orders, then to Deconinck to pick up some Prairie and Evil Twin beers they have coming in next week...

                              At least a 500 € trip right there... Luckily my mate doesn't have to pay for gas  ::)

                                It is 9.5% @neph93 If you can score some, DO! Certainly in my top 3 favorite IPAs and the competition are technically doubles and triples

                                  Well the Three Philosophers is definitely drinkable, but sorely lacking depth. Nothing about it really sells it as a quadruple. The 9.7% sneaks up a bit on you as a result. Not a bad brew, just a bit meh for me.

                                    The menu tonight:
                                    Ballast Point Grapefruit Sculpin. No photo, just picked up the canned version. Funny how it used to be so highly sought after here, and now it's seemingly widely available. I'm not complaining, still a nice beer.

                                    Green Flash Hop Head Red. Delicious. I've slept on Green Flash for awhile, no longer.

                                    Ayinger Oktober Fest-Märzen. A bit early in the season but I'm not complaining. Hope the Ayinger supply lasts, I'm loving their beers.

                                    The star of the show: 512 Funky Kingston. A local brewery (literally a mile or so down the road from where I live…) who rarely even bottle anything. The majority of their beers are available in kegs only for distribution locally, so when they bottle something it's a big deal and something you definitely have to pick up. This is great, nice mellow sour. Hope they start bottling more!

                                        I don't know why we're inundated with 'merican beers… Trades, maybe?.. Contacted Deconinck and they have another batch of Evil Twin and Prairie beers incoming next week... Just in time for our visit...
