^ Almost bought some last week. How different is it to the bog standard Hobgoblin??

The strongest i have had could be the Zyweic imperial stout, coming in at 12% i think.
And i think old rasputen from north coast is about 10-11%

Im pretty sure i had a La Trappe Quad that was around 12% too.
Great beers, but definitely not your daily pool party swigger!

I had some maybe a year ago and I liked it better, but I can't remember why I thought that.  If the price isn't outrageously higher, you should give it a go.  If you like Hobgoblin, obviously.

Halloween time fun. Broke out this beer that my wife bought for me. Damn tasty.  I would have never bought this as I've never hears of Sahtea. Can't go wrong with Doghead Fish beer IMHO.

That does sound interesting, and I agree with you about Dogfish Head.  Best thing to ever come out of Delaware.

Going to Geers with my mate, it's his first time. My brother's coming as well. And all I have to do is spend their money…

[Seul]

My mate spent 70, my brother 30, and I spent 22 € on these two…

[JamesMarg]

Thats a bit more expensive that your usual drop Seul?
Must be pretty special!

Six for the Achel (for which I am so massively stoked I don't think anyone would comprehend haha), and 16 for the Rio Reserva 2009. The latter underwent a crazy complicated process, and it should be worth it… I've been eyeballing this for about a year now... A friendly Dutch fella next to me in Geers, noticed me looking and lovingly caressing the Pannepot and Rye Triples, and told me to get this bottle... So I gave in...

Oh how i envy your selection!

[Seul]

It's costing me a ton of money though - maybe it should be as rare and as expensive as over there…  :-\

[JamesMarg]

Nothing wrong with spending money on things that you're really passionate about and enjoy!
Thats why most of us are here i guess, because we have an eye for the best of the best.

Last thing I think about when enjoying a phenomenal brew, is how much it cost…

However I  will try (I said TRY!) and empty my fridge prior to going to Geers again...
