What's your favorite Beer?

I talked about the new bar around me corner yeah?.. It has a great amount of good beers for 3€… Orval, for example... Which is nice... Saison Dupont?.. Sure: but that's 2.5€...
They also have St Berny Abt 12... For 3€... Not served in official St Bernardus glasses, fortunately, cause those suck arse, but very nice, big glasses... Anyhow... My brother has been drinking this a lot lately, and last week I had a whiff of his glass, and the aroma was very pleasant... So I went to the bar yesterday, with my brother, and had a Berny... It had been ages since I last had one, but I complétely fell in love with the all around perfection and balance of the whole thing... Sure: it's not a mindblowing, modern beer... But it's old school solidness. It's cheap, you'll probably never have a bad bottle, it's perfect for cellaring, and only 10%...
I'll have to try the Rochefort 10 and 8 and Westvleteren 12 again asap...

Neph, I can maybe send you what gets distributed here in Connecticut. This was from a trade I'm made with a guy in California. But here in CT we get the Regular Oude Tart and other seasonals. We don't get the society beers here like Black Tuesday Grey Monday etc… but I can def get you what we have here.
Kind of you. Sending beer to Norway sucks though. Aetas once sent me 5-6 bottles from Germany and they cost me double the price of the beer in taxes. Seul smuggled a bottle in for me once, but he's a ninja [emoji12]

Amazing stuff from a tiny brewery in WV

From a while back. Sadly I don't have any left.

This has been cellared for 3 years.
Oude Tart with cherries? That is very much my kind of beer. I love the regular version of Oude Tart, though my favorite from The Bruery is still Tart of Darkness.

Potentially the best IPA on the market right now. Citra and Mosaic hops galore for a nice citrus kick with very little bitter on the back end. Melvin is out of Wyoming and has limited distribution right now…but watch out, they'll be coming to a store near you someday soon to dominate the IPA section.
This beer has pretty much ruined me for other beers, I haven't drank much else for the last year-and-a-half. Colorado has some of the best beer on the planet, so that's saying something.
Cheers!

Bold statement ^^

I have drank hundreds of IPA's from all over the world and was also home brewing my own until I realized that the beer around me was way too good to try and compete with on my time frame.
Although individual tastes differ, even within the style, everyone I have introduced this beer to is now drinking it. My good friend that drinks sours exclusively will even drink this. I think they are only in 4 states now. Colorado, Oregon, Washington and Wyoming.
Melvin is expanding rapidly, I hope they are able to maintain the quality as they increase the quantity.
If you get a chance…go for it.

^Sounds like you're a rep for Melvin…
And whilst I'm not a rep for HF, this is fucking PERFECT. Elegant, balanced, complex; could drink it all day, every day...
I WISH!!!! Can't even get a bit of swag from those dang Wyoming hop heads. But sadly I am forced to only accept the best…and right now they are top tier.
I love farmhouse ales...a dry hopped Pale sounds right up my alley! Enjoy that!

It's delicious in this glass too
