my last big beer sore was finding an un-broken 6pk of carona in a box car in the train-yard  _________________ the creepy uncle that scares the kids.... |

| You got some good belgians for cheap. Good job. The liquid town on Saratoga has some Founders KBS. It's 20$ for 4 bottles. Buy it. That is if its still there. |

Out of those belgians I like the Three Philosophers the most. If you get the chance to try some other belgian brews, I recommend St. Bernardus ABT 12, Gulden Draak 9000, and Brother Thelonious. One of my favorite belgians that you can buy in a 6 pack is the Victory Golden Monkey Tripel.
I got into the Belgian beers for a while, but have since switched back to IPA's and Stouts. If you like IPA's go out and get the Six Point resin 4 pack and the Ballast Point Sculpin. If you like stouts, you've gotta try this Founders KBS. It's unbelievably rare for Texas to have these beers and they can be aged and kept for years. At 5$ a bottle they are very pricey but when you drink it you can taste the quality. Cheaper stouts that I like are the Old Rasputin and Victory Storm King Imperial Stout. |

x 2 on the 3 philosophers - make it the last beer you drink of the night because its like a coffee/toffee desert. Never saw that blue label before though, must be new. Also the Westmalle Tripel is KILLER. Great spread sir! Let us know how the Ommegang Dubbel is - my favorite dubbel is Grimbergen, but i've never had the ommegang. _________________ ...if my boss ever finds this forum I'll be unemployed... |
