Beer, revisited

[summerisle]

Didn't know you could still buy Mann's?..............I can the remember the 'Mann's does you the power of good advert'.......probably wouldn't be allowed now under guise of misleading advertising!

I buy mine at Home Bargains as it's dirt cheap, I love the taste and can drink loads.

Had a couple of bottles of La Chouffe last week, the first time i have tried it. It really is a nice beer for those that like a Belgian Blond Beer. Its similar to Duvel but smoother going down. Just wish it wasnt so difficult to get hold of locally, unless anyone knows somewhere that stocks it??

Only places i have found are either ordering it online and doing click and collect from places like Majestic (Birkdale or West Kirby) or taking a hike out to Burscough and going to a supermarket called Booths that stocks it.

I don't think they do La Chouffe but the larger Waitrose and M&S do a few Belgian blondes. Not sure if Brexit will be changing this.

I cant imagine Brexit is going to help Belgium beer one bit - I am going to drive there to stock up once the French borders open

Speaking of La Chouffe, I have this bad boy and a few more specials stashed away for a special occasion...come on Carlo get your finger out, no one bottles beer like the Belgians, you can open up beer that has been brewed 4 or 5 years ago and its perfect - could have been bottled last week

You've done well getting the Duval BA.

I got it in Belgium, along with the triple jack which was a muddy roots exclusive once off. I also got the kwak in Belgium but that is no where near as good as the Duvel

The Duvel Distilled 2013 is the cream of the crop however, 5000 bottles made. Expect to pay about 400eu for a bottle

After months (literally) of debating with myself I took the plunge and got a perfect draft machine. Got it set up yesterday with some jupiler in so it could chill ready to try tonight and leffe blonde, goose island and dark arts stout in reserve.

Excited to give it a go later

What your thoughts mate?
The LISA is tremendous

Ah, Bons Voeux is one of my all time faves.

It’s spot on mate, had lowenbrau in over the weekend. LISA is on my next to buy list actually so I’ll look forward to it.

only problem is I’m normally a weekend drinker, now having a beautiful lager/beer constantly available on draught I’m ploughing through them in the week too now

Got some Goose Midway to come plus Lowenbrau.

Win tonight and I will be having a pint too ffs!!
