I can see you're 3rd from the left but who are the others?

My local stockist has lots of American beers and I'm not sure if this is good or not, especially as I've hardly dented the Belgium section

Well stocked beer shop Crax, lots of good stuff going on, I don't know many of the American beers though, the main problem you find is that they over hop, a lot. Buy lots of that Duvel Trip Hop if they've still got it, lovely stuff.

Underwhelmed to be honest.

I couldn't see the triple hop, got a Leffe, Duvel and a Chimay for now

Rogue stuff is good. Brooklyn is okay but a bit boring. I don't know the others!
Noted. Might try some before xmas

Flying Dog are reliable. They're just about to stop importing into Europe, bar two or three of their beers, so now is a good time try while you have the chance.

Goose Island is an interesting one. It started up in the 80s and developed a decent reputation. Recently though they sold a controlling interest to AB-InBev prompting some to stop drinking their beer. There's an ongoing discussion in beer nerd world as to whether they can still call themselves craft brewers.

You *must* try the Alaskan Smoked Porter. It's a bit different to the typical rauchbier - nicer, I reckon. Not to everyone's taste though.

I'd try the Magic Hat one too - I know of them by reputation but haven't actually tasted any of their beers.

I've has the FD K9 but I honestly can't remember what it was like. Not sure I was a huge fan though.
