  1. Today's second beer is the world-renowned Achel Blond 8 from the St Benedictus Abbey located just inside Belgium but only a few miles South of Eindhoven  - one of the truly great beers of the world. The Achel monastery produces the smallest quantity of beer of all the Holy Order breweries, but of all of the Trappist beers, this one is my personal favourite. It doesn't have the bewildering complexity of some Belgian tripels and blond beers - instead you get a yeasty, slightly tart and hoppy offering that tastes faintly of peach and cloves yet is instantly drinkable (highly carbonated though so make sure you serve it in a massively oversized goblet). Lovely dry finish on the tongue - the only cure for which is to have another sip.

     

    Cloudy, so Boycie isn't going to pinch it.

    Dont you ever get the urge to just neck it? instead of tasting it?

  2. that is very nice in its own way, strong cinnamon and a hot after kick, I think Eddie would like it.

    Exactly im not a big Whiskey fan enjoy jd but that it for me this gives you the whiskey in a subtle way i love it.

  3. To chill beer that cold as the picture suggests is just plain stupid. There is no way the flavours will come out properly. Although often that kind of beers don't taste like anything anyway.

    You mean you can still taste it after a few? must be crap
