There just was a heavy fire in the Rochefort abbey!!

My heart skipped a beat, but no worries: the brewery was'nt damaged. (although 4 barrels of 27.000 liters of trappist were destroyed!)

(and the library is fine too, if you want to know)

Whoa! Dodged a bullet there.

But I mourn for the 4 barrels lost...

I thought the same thing. Although I have to admit when I saw that you posted at 6 in the morning on the beer thread I thought, "Wow, Scott's a hard man drinking already."

Rochefort 8 has to be one of the best beers in the world. If not the best.

I can see myself leaving Belgium with a fair bit of beer to take back to Australia, and I'll have to declare it when I get back, and end up having to pay a fair bit in tax, because I've exceeded the limit of what I can bring back in. ****s.

Then you'll have to leave with it inside you, Craig!

Sierra Nevada Pale Ale

Sierra Nevada. Seems to please the taste buds right now.

Can you get in Australia? And what Australia beers are available in the US that are worth a try?

It was probably Four X so that would be equivalent to about 1 1/2 sixpacks of real beer.

Only the Australian equivalent of trailer park trash drink XXXX.

So then you're saying it's the number 1 beer in Australia?

It's either that or VB and both are ****.

TBF they are no worse that Coors or Budweiser or Tecate or any of a thousand other fizzy piss yellow beers. But I do have to say that when I was down there (Australia, that's what we say) 4 years ago I was not impressed in general by the quality of beer that was available. I did manage to find a couple of pretty decent smaller brews that had some stuff that I quite liked but for the most part the popular brews tended to be what I would call "lawn mowing beers", beers that are insipid enough that you can drink 10 or 12 and still not cut your foot off while doing yard work.
My girlfriend's dad told me that the XXXX label was made that way because most aussies could not spell beer.

Not sure what to think about this...

A five pack of Mexican beer with five shots of tequila. Blanco Basura (White trash). Dude should get entrepreneur of the year.

I'm drinking Tiger beer ATM. I had this in Malaysia a couple of years ago when I stopped over in Kuala Lumpur (I was enroute from Japan to Vietnam) for the night. I got a 600ml beer for approx $2.50.

Win!

Enjoyed a Pannepot 2008 Reserva from De Struise yesterday while watching the 'cross. Lovely stuff!

*WHAT A REAL WOMAN DOES*


A real woman is a man's best friend. She will never stand him up and

never let him down. She will reassure him when he feels insecure and

comfort him after a bad day.

She will inspire him to do things he never thought he could do; to live

without fear and regret. She will enable him to express his

deepest emotions and give in to his most intimate desires.

She will make sure he always feels as though he's the most handsome man

in the room and will enable him to be confident, sexy, seductive and

invincible. . .



No wait... Crap, Im sorry... I'm thinking of beer.

That's what beer does...

Never mind.

Somebody offered me a Budweiser yesterday and I said no to it. I drank it once in 2005 and I felt like walking to the bar and getting my money back, and I vowed that I would never drink it again. I still haven't broken that promise. I've had Czech Budvar beer before, and it was really good.

What do the Belgians here think of De Koninck Tripel + Brugge Tripel? I only seem to get Belgian beer anymore.
