What's your favorite Beer?

Have to admit, I think 50cl is about perfect for most beers.  Though there are a few beers that are so good, it would be almost criminal not to put in 75cl bottles.

It's rare that I want to say nice things about AB InBev, but to give credit where credit is due, it did a good thing and gave its salaried employees better parental leave.

Agreed…

Blind buy at Geers yesterday. Not bad!..

[Matty123]

A sour ipa with strawberry and banana from Hudson brewery. And a double dry hopped something something from counter weight brewing. And a BLB from GA

^ that strawberry one looks mental.

The is good but I preferred Tap 5.

[Matty123]

@neph93 It really is man. So good.

[neph93]

This does what it says on the bottle. Very smooth and rounded. Elegant for a 10.5ABV beer.

That Chimay is now released in 1/2 bottles. Overpriced af. Also: your version needed at least another 5 years of mellowing…

I might open my 2015 version if you come visit later this year 

[neph93]

I dob’t remember the price point being horrific but I’ll check when I’m in today. It could be that I’m inured against horrific pricing though.

I figured it should be cellared but always like to try a fresh one for comparison. I may pick up another today.

Edit: €22 for 75cl. Not terrible by Norwegian standards. Not sure if it’s worth it for a cellared bottle though. I’ll keep an eye on stock.

Good one Hudson brewery sour ipa with pineapple and coconut

[Giles]

Didn't you have a glass?

[Matty123]

@Giles:

Didn't you have a glass?

That is actually a glass from Kent Falls Brewery (which is a fantastic brewery) It’s also what was given to me by the host of the party. So I didn’t think twice.

[Giles]

It's a jar, not a glass imo….

[Seul]

Yeah I never got that either…

[Matty123]

I agree. Must be a yank thing. Mason jars used for moonshine and bootlegging. Part of
Our heritage I suppose. I don’t get Christmas pudding or vinegar on fried fish. But every expat here has a tin of that Christmas pudding in the pantry.

And that jar doesn’t function as so. It didn’t come
With a top and the threading is just decor. So nostalgia must be the reason
