What's your favorite Beer?

@Chris:

Wow, a stout under 5%?  That's interesting.

I was fully prepared for it to be awful but it was very well made and full of flavour, despite lacking in the body that a shit load of alchohol provides.

Holy cow - what a haul… Pics to follow...

I need a Birthday Bomb!  Guess for now I'll settle for one of the best coffee porters I can remember.

Night Shift Awake. I can get this any time which is great

Also the wife picked me up a new beer fridge, what a great wife I have!

Nice!..

Ok - Geers!.. Whilst my mate was smoking outside, and my other mate had yet to arrive, I popped in with a headstart…

=> 3 last 37.5cls bottles of 3 Fonteinen Golden Blend, yep I'll have those...
=> 3 last bottles of BFM Saint Bon Chien Grand Cru 2013 Rum Casks, yeah I'll have those as well...
=> bottle of Tilquin Mûre to see what the fuss is all about...
=> bottle of Cantillon '14 to see whether it's better than the appalling 2013s I had...
=> some smoked beers (Schlenkerla), some Polish porter (Kormoran Porter Warminski, cheap as fuck at 2.3€/ 0.5l!)
=> Fantôme Hivêr, brilliant black saison, To Ol Black Malts BIIPA, a locally made stellar saison (d'Erpe Mere) and the Weizenbomb that is Schneider Meine-Hopfenweisse

Ready for spring and summer...

Oh my

[Broark]

Great haul! Just one of the benefits of living in Belgium I suppose.
And @Traser2g if you want a Birthday Bomb I could probably get you one? Seems like more shops down here are just getting them. Plus I'm planning on going to Jester King this weekend so could get some of that if you wanted to organize some type of trade!

These guys know how to make a great fruity IPA…

With a cool label…

[neph93]

Seul, this is good stuff. I don't know how best to describe it other than straight up classy. Tremendous balance and complexity, full bodied without being boozy at all. Get some.

Oh yeah… More label nerding:

[Seul]

10-4 - will hunt some down 

[xtcclassic]

Perfection…

[Seul]

That looks absolutely spot on…

[mikebarhoot]

gotta say.. this one has become my fav.  now gotta find it somehwere other than the local watering hole.

[mikebarhoot]

oh, and when will IH release the gray rope?

[Traser2g]

Went to my favorite bottle shop yesterday and they surprised me with a gift, a very very great gift. Hopefully the Zombie Dust lives up to the hype.

Brilliant!.. I am still very jealous of your fridge btw… And the fact that you guys have so many (high quality) canned beers over there...

These days, with our lovely neo-liberal rightwing government that only seems to care about making sure none of us hard working stiffs have àny money left at the end of each month, I agree…

[Traser2g]

So far so good, beer is at a nice 42 degrees. Only thing I don't like about the fridge is that the light is either on or off, no door trigger.

Spent the day yesterday working/pouring beer at the Upland Sour and Funk Fest.  Tons of good beers.

Prairie had some solid showings.

Uplands "Lambic" series was super solid as well. Had the Persimmon and the Paw Paw

Seventh Sun out of Dunedin, FL really stole the show for me.  Strawberry Alarm Clock and West Coast to Coast, their collab with cascade brewing, were both fantastic!

[Traser2g]

I'd love to try some Shorts, what's the closest distro to MA?
