Madame janettes in aruba had westy12, ccb jai alai, and a few others I can't remember. Fantastic food, best beer list on the island.

Cheers!

Haha, I'd almost think about Lindemans box on there, but wtf would I do with 5 spontanbasil?

That was my literal reaction. I want all the other stuff including the sign...but um. SpontanBasil was worth trying, but not worth five more at that price. Getting rid of that beer is probably the motivation behind that bulk deal.

 

[fiestaplatypus]

Not sure if I missed these somewhere, but added two new 2013-2014 bottling dates for Tilquin Quetsche to the Google docs spreadsheet. Didn't see them on lambic.info either.

i guess that's not ridiculous if you really want a framboos, there are some other quality bottles.... but damn, you are paying like $20/ 750 for some slop, too.

Still detecting a slight rubbery quality that I got on the nose as well as in the finish when doing this one blind. It's minute enough that it doesn't bother me too much. Everything else is tasting phenomenal though. This is incredibly funky with a touch of sesame, lemony brightness and rich finish. There's an almost apricot-like fruitiness that emerges as it warms.

I think you mean medicinal quality... ;-)

Drink them. Super srs. Delish summer beer, serve cold with lemon slice, cucumber slice and basil leaves.

Yup. Gonna write that up sometime this week and work it into the page. It'll be crystal clear after that. Will update here as well when it's done.

Will update once I recover from the trip.

Blåbaer release is set for July 18, if anyone still cares.

 

[Rowingbrewer1]

so is anyone watching to see Greece default and the Euro drop so we can order all the beer?

more looking to see if they default and have the 10 year treasury yield drop so I can lock in at a lower rate on my mortgage, therefore affording more beer for the next 30 years

 

[Rowingbrewer1]

unfortunately for the both of us they may be reaching a new deal with the rest of Europe and the IMF in order to avoid a default and thus saving the Euro and lifting the treasury yield

Because of the FB post, I assumed the drop was just the Tilquin stuff...wish I had looked around more earlier.

Just curious, what was available on Etre? Grand Cru, Bio, RdG, and Kriek? Or was there something else?
