Eddie Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 The Memsahib and I shared a 75 cl bottle of Brugse Zot Blond and a 33 cl bottle of Tynt Meadow today. Both lovely. I nearly managed to fire the cork from the Zot into my grandson's trampoline today - oh, so close, it hit the top of the net. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad you enjoyed it. My wife loves it - not her absolute favourite but it's up there, certainly in her top 5. What I really do like about it is the silky mouthfeel from the oats - I'm more of a dark beer person, but it's one of the tripels I really do keep coming back to time after time because it is so smooth.

Went to Tesco at Heanor. My first time in a shop since March 18th. They don't stock it there I bought some oven chips and went home in high dudgeon. Which was odd because I'd arrived in a Ford Focus.. Eddie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddie Posted June 19, 2020 Share Posted June 19, 2020 Taking inspiration from @sage, I'm currently sucking down a Gulden Draak 9000. Followed by an Erdinger Pikantus. Also, building up my stock, I've just put in orders from Belgiuminabox, BeersofEurope and web-bier.de. If covid-19 is going to take me, I'm going to make sure that I'm pickled for posterity.

Eddie Posted June 19, 2020 Share Posted June 19, 2020 Something different - I have just finished a bottle of Altvater Weissbier Bock, courtesy of my last order from web-bier.de, Absolutely lovely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddie Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 A new Belgian for once - Vleteren Blond, 12% Oak-aged. This beer is to die for. Probably the best honey beer I have ever tasted. Probably? Make that definitely, by some distance. TuffLuff 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Until I had the Vleteren last night, the Barbar Bok was my all-time favourite of that type. I feel like I've just seen my best mate out with a former girlfriend.

May Contain Nuts Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 I had a honey one on Friday night as it happens. Very nice it was too, 12% impy. I tend to operate on the more (/overly) expensive, harder to find, one-off craft beer side of things where many people will baulk at the prices. This was part of a 6 for £40 selection at suds & soda but does include this and a 15% Macadamia & White chocolate stout! I can always find a way to justify the prices though...
