And it is Belgian. OP is right. Duvel is a heavy one... Carefull with it, after a few of those the man with the hamer arrives;.. I do think Belgium goes a bit over the top with its beers, though. I mean, CHOCOLATE beer? Strawberry beer? You gotta be fucking shitting me! |

Quoting: DexieFoozlerThe biggest difference is that we use more herbs - fruits in our beers. As said, we like fermented beers. The boquet of the beer (like the Hoegaarden last night) is, I think what does it for me. It doesn't taste excessively fruity or herby, but there is a nice boquet. :SWT name: When the shit hits the fan and the end is quite nigh, will you cry out to heaven? Will you lay down and die?

Maybe Budweiser, but, the real Bud, from the Czech Republic, not the fake one brewed in Milwaukee, or wherever. You have a thriving micro-brew industry in the USA. Why not try some of those? A lot of them are superb! Don't believe it HE DRINKS STELLA!! HUSSAR! |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 416114 United States 09/24/2010 10:45 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | A micro-brewed American IPA is hard to top. I prefer them over any other beer in the world. Each brewery adds their own distinct touch of maltiness and hoppiness. I like the more crispy, citrissy brews with an IBU over 70. A few of my favorites: Bell's Two Hearted IPA Rogue Imperial IPA (I-Squared) Stone Ruination IPA Ballast Point Big Eye |

Quoting: the prophecyerNow, the more discernable drinkers have real ale. There are some quality brews, varying flavours and some with very peculiar names. When I visited Oz a few years back, I preferred drinking their wines. Vineyards abound, just get yourself a designated driver. I also agree that the best lager I have tasted was in Belgium.

The brewery is a few minutes away, and I bring growler jugs to get filled with fresh beer from the brewerey. They just came out with a great Pumpkin Ale.
