Three Philosophers Quadruple

Guess who just got some Three Philosophers Quadruple??? This guy! yea that's right me, and it was delicious.... Further review when not druk!

Is Ommegang hard to get in Boston?

Probably my favorite beer hands down. I freakin' love the stuff.

Ommegang simply does not make a bad beer.

You'll be Philosophizing in no time

Just picked up a four-pack from the discount cart at the grocery store for 7 bucks. SCORE!!!

Just obtained a bottle of this today...

REALLY looking forward to it!

This beer ages insanely well. That is all/

I have a bottle from 2007 and a bottle from 2005 squirreled away in my cellar!!! I cant wait to crack it open. Don't know when I want to do it though. I may look around and see if I can get an 06, 08, and 09. And when 2010 comes out, do a vertical tasting.

the 2005 is on it's way out. I drank a 2005 I had in May of this year, and it was good, but not as good as the 2005 tasted in 2008. You may want to finish your bottle off before 2010.

Thanks for the heads up. Ill do that soon!

I did a beer review on the original: http://www.youtube.com/epicbeerdude#p/u/0/Okuz_-r02XI

Mighty tasty stuff. It's sold everywhere around here. Now getting my hands on some Russian River is a different situation...

Good thing my sister is driving back from California with a case of Pliny.

They are one of my favorite breweries, but their BPA is a disappointment. Cascade hops simply do not belong in a Belgian beer, IMO.

FYI,
I just got a bottle this past week up in Deep Creek, Md and it was delicious then looked a little closer and found it was a 2009. Still kicking myself for not cleaning out their supply.

The Liquor store on RT219 heading south just past the walmart on the right

At $9.95 a bottle I still can't stop thinking about it lol. Might have to ride back up there.

Three Philosophers was the first quad I had ever tried. It was definitely a religious experience.

The kriek blend makes it a bit different for a quad. I also find it more chocolatey than most of the Belgian ones I've had. Nonetheless, it's absolutely fantastic.

Just scored 2 from a local store! 2010 vintage tucked away under a shelf.

Costco near me has it on a regular basis now. Woo hoo!

Well I have some bad news. Just got back from touring a couple microbreweries down in Virginia. Guess who drank both of my frikken bottles? My son's! Now my birthday is coming up they can gladly replace them.

I love Ommegang. Toured the brewery in 2010 and absoultely fell in love with their beers. Before this, I had never heard of them. I was visiting Utica on business and had to go to Cooperstown since I was close...found Ommegang on the map and thought it would be cool to tour my first brewery. Little did I know that I found possibly the best brewery in the country. Best part, their beer tasting is pretty generous. We tasted about 7 different beers, and since my wife doesn't like beer, I had twice as much. I left there toasted!!
