What's your favorite Beer?

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.

[Broark]

That's some awesome label art!

[neph93]

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?

@Broark:

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]

Another one from To Øl, it is not Advertising but great label art.

@Aetas:

Another one from To Øl…

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

[Aetas]

Almost untouchable stuff from To Øl this season.

De Proef brews for To Øl.

Shit pic, but felt the need to say…Founders has been my favorite brewer for some time... but if Oddside keeps knocking down amazing beer after amazing beer as they have I'm gonna have to rethink my position
