What's your favorite Beer?

I'd post some pictures of my cellar but it's a cardboard box at the back of my store cupboard. On the plus side, the temp. is a steady 12 degrees.

I made the most perfect French onion soup tonight. Such a treat paired with the Oude Gueuze Tilquin, fantastic.

Excellent work. Sounds lovely.  I'll be drinking it with the classic Norwegian "Ribbe" as we get nearer xmas. Turns out it's not just for quaffing on the veranda in summer

Paging @Seul … Have you had this? Worth the price of admission?

[Seul]

Never had it - can't make out the name either…

[xtcclassic]

It's To Øl Brewmance stout. Better be damn good for that price. I didn't pick it up… yet.

[xtcclassic]

The current stash.

That Bourbon County…

Brewmance sounds good... Need to find it!.. http://www.ratebeer.com/beer/to-ol--omnipollo-brewmance-imperial-bourbon-barrel-aged-wild-honey-stout/195292/

I just finished ordering some crazy Canadian stuff and some Yellow Belly (finally)... Also bought a crate of Orval (30% discount), and just paid a guy for five bottles of that 2008 Rochefort 8 75cls, and 6 Chimay bleu 2010.

It's 7.20 am.

Founders Dark Penance - is it worth an extra dollar compared to Hibernation Ale from Great Divide?

Seriously: I'm a complete arsehole… I'm NOT notifying my Dutch mates on other forums... Too limited a quantities... Fuck 'm 

[Giles]

Unfortunately, I have to put a set of stairs up in the office tomorrow…..

[Seul]

If you ever do make it back here, I will have something good ready to be shared 

In the meantime… De-freakin-LICIOUS... So smooth... Whiskey burn in the back of the throat...

[Giles]

I'll make it back - fear not…...

Do you like Double Black IPAs? This is a really good example of one. I can't speak to Hibernation. How much is the Founders going for?

[jdl1279]

Trying this tonight. It's not bad, and will surely get drank.

Got up at 5.30 am in order to be able to quit work early… Mate picked me up at my store at 10.30. Drove 100 kilometres. Visited store. Drove another 130 kms. Visited Deconinck. 80kms home.

Best 6 hours spent. My attorney advices me not to mention how much I spent reason being I could be declared "officially and completely out of his fucking mind"... My mate spent twice as much as I did though... He drove well for being strapped in a straightjacket...
