Went shopping this evening. It was a little bittersweet to see the Prairie Christmas Bomb on the shelves today, as I just sent out an eMAW yesterday and would have tossed one in if I had waited a bit longer... :/

I thought that By Udder Means was really good. I thought they would have played up the fact that it is aged in Calvados barrels.

That version was aged in Muscat barrels. It was fantastic. Enjoy @medicmang !

You are correct, I don't know where I got Calvados from. There was three left on the shelf yesterday, I guess I should pick a couple more up

They should have done Calvados too. Damn that sounds good.

I've been trying to figure out where I got calvados from, and finally figured it out. The wood aged St Bernardus Abt 12 was aged in calvados barrels.
 
I'm very curious how you are able to get that much Cantillon, I'd love to know how if you're willing to give the details.


It's right there in the post you quoted--Trades and purchases.

For more detail- knowing that the brewery had already sold out of most stuff I set up a bunch of trades over the past month or so. I took 3x 12 bottle shippers full of beer and did 6 trades with people from Belgium and France. Some of them I had previously traded with on trips to Belgium. I wi say it was a pain in the ass to coordinate and meet up with all of them and I won't be setting up that many next trip. The trades are where most of the more rare stuff like Zenne, OGV, hommage, Seasons, old Rodenbach, and 9 of the Fou, the LPK and LPG, the Shaerbeekse Kriek, and the Mamouche came from. It was a nice surprise when Cantillon sold Fou Foune and Lou Pepe Framboise 3 bottles per person during open brew day, and also had Rose and Gueuze 3 bottles per person. The De Cam, boon, 3F Kriek, and 375ml Cantillons and 3F were bought in bottle shops.

Thanks for the info, I wasn't sure if the trades were international or if there was somewhere in the US getting that much Cantillon. I can't find any near me I know that much. I really need to get into this trading thing
