Hello Everybody,



Having a Unibroue La Fin Du Monde, it's a Belgian Strong Pale Ale, 9% ABV. It's malty, citrusy, with some spicy undertones. The taste is sweet but also tangy. Another awesome brew from this brewery. I've had a few from Unibroue and have not been dissappointed yet. So, what's on tap for everyone today?
 
Today I'm having a Dogfish Head D'Extra. WOW this stuff kicks some ***! At 20% ABV it's sweet, but not too much, the alcohol content is hidden very well. Very tasty. CMON people what the hell are you drinking these days?
 
Had something last night from Belgium called 'Delirium Tremens'.

15% ABV ,I believe.

The logo for the beer is a pink elephant.....should tell you all you need

to know if the name doesn't clue you in.

This stuff reminded me of Mr. T----dark and rough.

Not the best beer I've ever had , but ,then again, you get what you ask for

when you electively drink something named after withdrawal symptoms.
 
Delirium Tremens is on my list to get, it is a Belgian Strong Pale Ale at 9% ABV. It should have been in a golden color, right? I have some Delirium Nocturnum Belgian Strong Dark Ale at 8.5% ABV which I have not tasted yet. Belgian brews are an acquired taste to say the least. Very tasty in my book though. I love them.

Just had some Stella Artois. Wasn't too bad, but I probably won't buy again.

Never had it before. Sorry to say that it is not on my list either. Alot of people like it though. I guess this gives you another reason to try something else, lol
 
I am getting married in 2 weeks in Las Vegas, since I really didnt do much of the planning except getting the room at Bellagio. I was put in charge of planning a meal for about 10-15 people that are flying out to be there for the wedding.



Since this one was up to me , I chose a place with a great Belgian Beer selection, they even have a beer master, like a Sommelier with wine except for beer. They do have the wine expert but hey its the only thing im in charge of and im drinking beer. They have Duvel, Chimay and too many others to list all on tap!. Good thing the limo will be taking us there and back.



Looking forward to having a good beer on tap instead of my fridge. Each beer is served in a glass designed for that particular beer, that has been critical in my exp.



Oh yea, they have good food too... best rated in Vegas 3 years in a row.

John, I will post a pic of the beer or my bride in her barely legal anywhere but Vegas dress , $5 says you choose the beer?





Bought Stella this week, my worst selection in a long time, my dog who enjoys a lick off my finger turned his nose up at Stella. He is still playing with an empty Duvel bottle now......

Well , there 'ya go. That's what I get for sitting in a dark bar drinking strange beer....

it affects the memory ,you know.

You're probably right. All I remember is that it didn't really suit my tastes.



John , I'm going to Germany next year for a friends wedding.

My understanding is that these things are day-long beer-fests.

I'll sample all that I can and , if I survive , I'll report back with more detailed

and reliable info.
 
mmm....chimay...



I had some magic hat this weekend (microbrew), and also had a Boddingtons Pub Ale out at a local bar.



Lately, I just can't enjoy bottled beer that much. It seems to have a "skunked" taste to it vs getting it on tap (this is true for almost all the big names...miller, coors, bud, etc). It's probably just me getting pickier though as I try more and more beers. Some people swear it's me but some tap beers I order even don't taste right some of the time (have that yuck after taste).....uuugh.
 
Hey, Have fun in Germany, there are some nice brews over there. Definitely keep us informed on what you had.

Chimay awesome Authentic Trappists Beers, love the stuff. I've been on a brew/pub kick lately (having their tap stuff) very tasty. Yes, even beer on tap can go bad. Alot still has to do with how the brew is stored/cellared.

it not a belgian beer, it's a Canadian beer made in Quebec.

Try to find 1837, Raftman and Chambly Noire from Unibroue it's their best, all the beer from this brewery is awesome :)

Yes, it's made in Quebec, Canada, but the style is a "Belgian Strong Pale Ale". So far all the Unibroue's I've had have been pretty awesome.
 
Had my first Westy today and it was a 12. Man this brew rocks, thanks to a friend who sent me one. I could imagine drinking one of these everyday, but then again I would be broke, LOL If you ever and I mean ever get a chance to try one of these do it. The best brew I've had so far.
