No bottle as this brewery is growler fill only. Boombox Payola IPA, definitley one of the most exciting new breweries in western Canada

Couple of stouts to round off last night.
This was an OK effort at a dessert stout, made with cocoa nibs and espresso. Had a thin, acidic base though. Came off a bit unbalanced:
This was fantastic. They used Saison yeast to give it a twist. Worked brilliantly. Get some if you can:

@neph93: there's now an even more potent (lethal?) version of that Kees 1750 stout, aptly named the 1850… Gonna try it asap...
I'll be keeping eyes peeled for that ???
I'm considering launching a "get to know traditional German beer" project, because I know little about it but more clearly as an excuse to buy more beer. This is what the monopoly has available from Germany… https://www.vinmonopolet.no/Nettbutikk-kategorier/%C3%98l/c/%C3%B8l?q=%3Arelevance%3AmainCategory%3A%C3%B8l%3AvisibleInSearch%3Atrue%3AmainCountry%3Atyskland&searchType=product
Any tips on where to start or is it all crap? :o

First of all: ze Germans (with their notorious efficiency) have ze cheapest beer whilst maintaining high quality (unless you buy supermarket pils of course)… It isn't uncommon at all to pay 1-1.5€ for 0.5l beers that are FABULOUS in Ze Fourth Reich.
From that list, here are my recs:

Good call Eli.
Definitely the Aventinus!!! @neph93This following two dark beers are worth to compare. Very different.

https://www.vinmonopolet.no/vmpSite/Land/Tyskland/Weihenstephaner-Hefeweissbier-Dunkel/p/1788502One of the best Schneider. Tap7 Weisse.
https://www.vinmonopolet.no/vmpSite/Land/Tyskland/Schneider-Weisse-Original/p/4529302Kellerbier. Perfect summer beer. Drink it cold.
https://www.vinmonopolet.no/vmpSite/Land/Tyskland/Mahr's-bräu-Ungespundet-hefetrub-Kellerbier/p/5308002Another kind of style is Kölsch. Top-fermentation filtered ale. Here a good one direct from cologne. Perhaps you need more than one, to get the special taste.
https://www.vinmonopolet.no/vmpSite/Land/Tyskland/Früh-Kölsch/p/9872602If you need tro try a Pils, this is a better one. Big brewery, but ambitious to get back to the roots.
