      I got one of those in my last order…

      It was a chore to drink the entire thing. Definitely tastes like exactly what it says it does... But that heavy flavor, plus the "imperial black IPA" taste, and 11% ABV was far too much for me

        ^^ but did you finish your chore?    😃

        That sounds like a bottle to share with someone.

        Maybe so. Maybe not

          I finished it, and it finished me…

          I had to drink it alone because Maddy doesn't like dark beers so much.

                  It's not bad but it has a light body and at 7% I do tend to prefer other geuzes…

                    Might give it a try. I drank ridiculously small amounts of gueze this summer as a result of the poor weather so I’m missing it. Also, the monopoly has been out of Tilquin for months [emoji849]

                          Ha! Nice that Amundsen are breaking through in the UK and working with Verdant. Not my favourite Norwegian brewery but they pull some absolute blinders out now and again.

                            Maddy LOVES that beer right now…

                            Fruity, but slightly sour and no so sweet.

                            Me, I think it didn't taste beer-y enough for my taste

                              This is why I never use Ratebeer etc. Every now and again a bottle pops up in thw shop and I’ll buy it because it looks interesting. Some times it’ll suck some times I’ll get a result. Occasionally it’ll be fantastic.

                              Picked this up yesterday and seeing as it was a 2013 vintage I figured I’d be ok to drink it straight away [emoji1]


                              Made by Struise and described as a Royal Stout, it was amazing stuff. Adding to the fun, they couldn’t decide how strong it was. The OG label said 11%ABV, the import label 13%ABV.

                                  Tasted 13, feels like it was 13 this morning. Wonderful stuff.

                                  That’s a nice list. Wander Beyond seem to have the right idea.

                                    "Vintage 2013" is actually the 2017 edition btw. Struise are annoying like that.
