      Personal experience over reviews every day. Most folks seem to like that Duchesse beer which I think tastes like it's been filtered through a donkeys sweat gland  😠

      Made in England, clothed in Japan, fed in America and drunk in Belgium !

            Delicious, delicious donkey sweat. 🙂

            But you're right- reviews are only useful if you have similar tastes as the writer.  Someone who loves pilsners isn't going to get anything useful from a reviewer who exclusively drinks porters and stouts.

              Well you don't go by one review of course… But if a beer gets an avg score of say 98% after several hundred reviews, then I'm inclined to believe it's rather good... IF it falls into the categories of beer one prefers, of course... A 5% porter could get a perfect score but I wouldn't wanna try it...

                It was quite interesting. The first beer I had so far that really reminded me of isla whiskys. Very strong peat smoke, but not much behind that. Was more like a light whisky dram than beer. But definitely different than the francoinan smoked beers. For a whisky fan nice, not necessarily for a beer lover.

                > I don't care what people say.. The Max Power way is the right way…

                    Was able to buy a case of Westvleteren XII. Not cheap @100 € but 4 €/ bottle is about half what you pay for online…

                    And I'm way stoked to finally get to cellar some of these bastards...  🙂

                      Aaaannnd seller just told me the exp date is 2016 - meaning they're two years old… And kept in a cellar...

                      Fuck me I could sell these for 15 € a pop... Not that I will/ would, of course...  🙂

                      Edit: I'm an eejit... They use a different dating technique... 2016 = fresh batch  😞 Ah well I'll cellar 'm meself!..

                              I've tried it twice or thrice before… Excellent balance... Between Abt 12 and R10... But not 100 % my thing... I hope cellaring it will improve it...

                              Yes: I'm picky...

                                Well you just gave it a comparison to two of my favourite brews, so that gives it a thumbs up from me.

                                            Saint Amatus has aged on Woodford Reserve barrels from Labrot & Graham, Kentucky USA. Some batches were instead aged on Pappy Van Winkle whiskey barrels, both varieties are valid for this entry.
