I almost bought an Orval glass too. They have every trappiste in existance available at the abbey, including the proper glassware. But I simply don't have enough room for more glasses!
Got a tip for us?

Hey man sorry. They usually do limited runs and this was a little while back at Monkish. They didn’t make any more after the initial batch sold out.
I as a Dutchman should actually drink Heineken but I don't like it, I don't understand why so many people like that beer, they should look into Belgian beers.....

Heineken is the worst, imho.
That beer looks delish!
Nothing, but nothing, beats Belgian beers....I as a Dutchman should actually drink Heineken but I don't like it, I don't understand why so many people like that beer, they should look into Belgian beers.....
....although some German beers do come close.
As a Dutchman myself, I tend to take a gander across the border and enjoy whatever the Belgians are making
That said, I am vacationing in the Alps right now and I'm definitely enjoying Mönchshof Helles. The Germans really only know pils (and pils varieties) or weizen. So I'd miss my Tripel Karmeliet if I'd move here!
Currently I'm enjoying one of the Steambrews they don't sell in NL:

It depends on your personal taste, but there are also some nice beers to be found in Germany, but I prefer Belgian beers, my advantage is that I live in both the Netherlands and Belgium.
That's true. But hey, I live a short drive from both Belgium (cycling distance even) and Germany. So I can taste the best of both worlds as well! But I do notice that Beglian beers often aren't much cheaper over there than what we pay for it. German beer on the other hand sometimes is twice as cheap in Germany!

First time finding this on tap! Yum.
Where did you find that?
This is one of a few beers that I'd consider buying on bootle in a pub with a good (or even decent) selection on tap, so I'd love to taste it from tap.
Henry Street Ale House in Brooklyn Heights. Not sure where you are, but definitely worth the trip — greatest neighborhood and wonderful beer!Where did you find that?

Well, I'm in Bergen, Norway, so I'm not coming over the Atlantic just for a beer.Henry Street Ale House in Brooklyn Heights. Not sure where you are, but definitely worth the trip — greatest neighborhood and wonderful beer!
But, there's a fair chance we'll go back to New York some day (been there twice), and I will make a note of the place until then...
Edit: I see it's not too far from the Grimaldi's Pizza under the bridge, which we did go to last time we were in NY, and I wouldn't mind a bit more exploring in Brooklyn.

not even if @alexandr asks nicely?
Grimaldi's is all about the tourists) Next time you're in town check out Numero 28 (unfortunately the Brooklyn location closed during covid, but there are a few in Manhattan).Well, I'm in Bergen, Norway, so I'm not coming over the Atlantic just for a beer.

But yea, Brooklyn Heights is my favorite neighborhood in the world
Is that a lager in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?
Beer and crisps; wonderful. What a perfect way to pass the time on an August - or any - evening.As a Dutchman myself, I tend to take a gander across the border and enjoy whatever the Belgians are making

Enjoy.
A terrific beer, one I am more than partial to, and a reminder to treat myself to some in the near future.
Do enjoy.
Thank you.Happy to help!
Enjoy your beer - nothing beats a beer served with crisps.
Just noticed (and, while studiously, and very determinedly, deliberately avoiding the risk of derailing this thread, I must say that I love) your signature.
