What's your favorite Beer?

@Seul:

Oh and the La Buteuse is the appel brandy (calvados) barrel aged version… If you're a nerd you already knew this as it's a 75cl bottle  ::)

PS nephy: Orval glass wrapped... This time it's BOMBPROOF... Might ship next week...

Great news! We'll have a further chat about that, I'll pm  you \o/

Meanwhile all this talk of Stout meant I had to pick some up, and lo and behold a new impy from one og my fave Norwegian brewers. These guys have a micro brewery with associated bar just outside of the centre og Oslo. This is 9% abv and matured in Bourbon casks. Vanilla and oak over a malty, brown sugar base. Great stuff.

More "almost there" from Ægir. A weakish stout at 6%, aged in Irish whiskey casks. Lots of peat and smoke, over over a thin, acidic base. Meh.

A bit of an image dump of beers I've been enjoying over the last bit. I had that fullers imperial stout as well, but apparently I didn't get a photo. It was pretty good. My favorite was definitely the four winds pequeno cabos….a tequila barrel aged Berliner weisse that was just about perfect on a warm summers day

DanielAFC: great dumpage there mate!.. Need to look some beers up… Always a good thing...

Here... A beautiful autumn day... Relaxing... Stellar saison...

Kicked off college football last night with a few good beers!

Jester King Hibernal Dichotomous, cellared for I think about 9 months.
Delicious, much more mellow than it was initially in January.

Oskar Blues Ten Fidy. Never had anything from this brewery before, this one didn't disappoint.
Luckily I've got three more cans to enjoy.

Ten Fidy… Need to re-visit... I had this back when I wasn't that much into cans... I know: pretty dumb... I love cans now 

[Broark]

I think that's possibly why I had slept on Oskar Blues for so long, that and just not really knowing what they're about.
Nothing wrong with cans at all, lots of the good local Austin breweries distribute cans solely.

[Seul]

Not my thing…

[xtcclassic]

I will never accept cans, I'm afraid. Good beer deserves a bottle. Plus, I swear I can taste a difference.

[Finkster]

Cans, bottles  … I prefer barrels

[Seul]

Good old ale…

Incoming - a little Autumn fun…

[neph93]

Any of you ladies or gents fill me in about the Malheur brand? If it's worth trying and if so which versions are the best….

[Seul]

10 - the blond. Been a long time since I tried it though…

[neph93]

Nice one [emoji106]

[neph93]

What about Alvinne?

[Seul]

One of those breweries that always disappoints me… They just don't seem to have their shit together... I will have to give them another try though...

Thank you again, sir…. Just wading through vinmonopolet.no Belgian listings and putting together what promises to be an ugly big order. Need to sort wheat from the chaff...

[organisys]

Tried out this last night. Made in Kent UK.
Nice coffee and brazil nut kinda flavours, not strong enough and a touch too bitter maybe…

Think I am going to have to seek out some of the Imperial style stouts….

[DanielAFC]

If you want to go for a full bodied stout and you are in the UK try the brew dog tokio. I really enjoyed it the one time I came across here in North America.
