What's your favorite Beer?

^That's getting good reviews though…
I'm drinking Orval and I'm confident that
- It's much better to be drank fresh (under 6 months old)
- It's the best beer in the world under 8%... It's definitely the most perfect beer all around...
- It's the beer where the glass made for it is well thought out, and attributes to it...
Overall: I could drink this all day. I actually try to restrain myself and not have it more than once a week or two weeks even, fearing I might grow tired of it, but that just doesn't happen.
In short: best beer, best glass. neph93: I hope I'm able to pick one up soon... Of course all the stores I'm visiting are out of stock...

I also love Orval, we've been getting stock a bit more consistently here in Texas.
I have one or two bottles in my fridge at the moment, experimenting with fresh vs. aged a bit.
From the other two bottles I've already drank I've found that I liked the fresh bottle a bit more than the age. Just more flavor and bite.
Now I just need to track down a glass! -
I'd ship you one but they apparently break easily in transit, just ask neph93…
You could kill a fucking elephant with this glass, that's how sturdy it is, but even if you wrap it in such an amount of bubblewrap that the size equals that of the Hindenburg (pre-fire), rest assure that some asshole postal worker drives over it with his car and shatters it...

I had an Orval last night while watching LFC draw their way to glory ::)
Seul is correct… of the six glasses sent from Belgium, all of which were expertly packed, five survived the trip to the grim north, three of which were long stemmed and delicate. Made no sense that the Orval glass, which you could indeed brain a mastadon with, should be the one to break. But that it did. Sod's Law of course, because it's a beautiful glass, and while I haven't yet had the experience of Orval from an Orval glass, I suspect it is a sublime one.
In short: best beer, best glass. neph93: I hope I'm able to pick one up soon… Of course all the stores I'm visiting are out of stock...
We'll sort this one out, old chap, no worries. Patience is a virtue and all that

Drinking Oerbier…

I'm fairly certain this is one of Belgium's best offerings, and breweries. Most fun part of their beers is that they all share a common smell and taste... You can àlways tell it's a Dolle beer...
It took me years to figure this one out, but in the last month or so, I've drank it twice (one Feb 2014 bottle which already showed remarkable evo), and it's finally all come together...
If you find this beer somewhere, buy it, try it, take your time...
