        If you like sours: yes. I haven't tried a lot of Cantillon honestly because I end up trading them away most of the time… But he definitely makes solid beers...

        I had already checked Craftshack... I guess it's a tad more difficult to find one big online store in the US that has all the rare beers, what with all the different laws in different states...

          I tried to get tickets to Zwanze day at Jester King but I was not fortunate enough to get selected in their ticket lottery. 😞

            Craftshack has Allagash Curieux, 4-packs of Even More Jesus 16oz cans, Evil Twin Aus Mas Cafe, Goose Island Halia, Bruery Mélange 15, Russian River Damnation… This could get expensive  😠

            For now: a shitty, fresh Struise beer... Bought two to try it again, but I'll never like this one... Especially fresh... Struise beers need 6-18 months after being bottled to evolve... Always been my experience...

              Resident Belgian beer expert @Seul , what's your opinion on Brasserie de la Senne?
              JK posted on their blog that they actually got some imported and will be selling it at the brewery and was wondering if you had any thoughts on their beer.
              I'm always trying to find new Belgian beers to seek out!

                I've tried some of their stuff, latest being Bruxellensis, which I would definitely recommend to Orval lovers…

                Solid brewery that hasn't made anything groundbreaking, really, but usually churns out ok beers...

                  Thanks, I'll give 'em a shot next time I'm out at the brewery!

                    A (nerdy) thing you can do, is check RateBeer (or Beeradvocate, either works) and write down the names of their best beers (or memorise the list, if your brain still works)… Or check the reviews and see what would probably be your thing... Just easier to avoid buying shitty beers/ potential fridge turds this way... I do this with every beer I buy these days by the way… Mainly cause I don't have the money or space to experience and go by instinct... Every brewery makes shitty beers, and most of the times if a store sells their best offering, they also sell their worst...

                      I do tend to check BA before almost every purchase, just was wondering if you had any personal insight since it's a Belgian brewery. 😛
                      I have zero fridge space too right now, means I need to start drinking more…

                        ^ sound advice.

                        Last night and a case in point, an ordinary beer from Amundsen. Great idea, boringly executed.

                            I know, right? Amundsen's graphics dude is a star. Check the stout I had from them a week ago. I've got a black cherry sour from them too with mad graphics. Their beers are normally good too. This wasn't bad, just meh. And who's got time for that?

                              Of course!.. I love to help in any way I can!.. Problem is the beers I wanted to recommend are retired… All I can recommend is Bruxellensis, and Brussel's Calling... This makes me realise I should try more of their stuff 🙂

                                Dirty, dank double IPA. Sticky pine needles and a bit of funk at the end. Just how I like my DIPA's and a good start to the evening.

                                  Here's to hoping Beavertown will drop some heavy, crazy impy stouts soon… But I reckon all heat will be coming from Omnipollo (again) this year... Their FB posts have been nowt short of INSANE...

                                      Thanks guys. Gonna try to make it. Just starting to develop a taste for sours.
                                      @Seul
                                      I asked my brother where he orders online and got this response. He trades a lot.

                                      Have ordered from johns grocery in Iowa, France 44 in Minnesota, and west lakeview in Illinois.  All good experiences

                                        Pretty authentic dobbel. Fruity and vinous with a nice touch of malt and brown sugar at the end. Comes in suitably large bottles too [emoji1417]

                                            We get far too few beers from To Øl up my way. Looks like a nice one. Lovely glassware too.
