      Yeah they are pretty annoying. I thought it a bit novel on the first bottle of Shipwreck Porter I got a few years back. Now it's the one slight I have as it just makes a mess getting into one.

      Bourbon: because living in Kentucky just makes you want to drink

        I like em. The way Trinity does it it doesn't make a mess at all.

        My neighborhood liquor store has always been great at wine and spirits but poor at beer. Now I'm happy to report their beer curation has turned around.  They had a small but well chosen number of superior beers from around the world.  Picked up more Crooked Stave, a French cider, Sammy Smith cider, Saison Dupont… And Stagg Jr bourbon and Rittenhouse rye. I think Stagg Jr is just a younger George T. Stagg, so I have high hopes there. An affordable version of my favorite bourbon.

        Think it, be it.

          Well, this is damn amazing. I could drink this every day.

          And yes, those are some Iron Heart tags in the background.  😘

                    2013 edition of Verzet's Oud Bruin. Tart and acetic, vegetal and funky. Head and lacing effectively absent, still crisp carbonation. I think I'll get more.

                          My brother bought two cases of Tap 7 and one of Tap 5 for his scratchjam and his barbeque. I taught him well.

                            I'd rate it about 3.7/ 5… Big fizzy coke-like head that disappears almost entirely, beautiful red hue, quad colour, good smell, medium bodied, bit boozy aftertaste... All in all I reckon aging it will help...

                                Curious to hear what you think of the Betelgueze.  I liked it, but didn't think it was worth buying again, since it was pretty damn expensive.

                                    My favourite beer is a local one from here in Perth, Australia called Hop Hog.  Somewhere between an American pale ale and IPA, on the sweeter and fruitier side of things:

                                    Don't think it's distributed overseas.. Favourite beers of mine that non Australians may be familiar with are Sierra Nevada pale and Weihenstephan Hefe.

                                      For obvious reasons, I already love the Hop Hog…  🙂

                                        I would guess from your last couple of posts in this thread that you're in Belgium? and you can get Hop Hop? I'm impressed! Until recently you could barely get it in liquor stores here where it's from! The brewery, Feral, really punch above their weight.  Hop Hog won a reasonably big Australia wide beer poll, not bad for a brewery in the outskirts of little old Perth. I've got a visit booked in for next weekend.  I'll be sampling their annual "Tusk" IIPA, which I'm really looking forward to:

                                          That Tusk looks good as well...
