Beer?

Multivariate Beer

I'm no expert but that looks like a load of old nonsense.

Rochefort Trappiste 10
St. Bernardus Abt 12
Westmalle Dubbel
Westmalle Tripel
Gouden Carolus Tripel
Tripel Karmeliet

That's 2 litres of beer at an average of 9.2%, you'll be well wazzocked. You need to pace this one, I'd suggest starting in about 20 minutes.

Bomb! De Struise are releasing this 26% demon next weekend - time for a trip to Belgium.

Edit: saw a bottle for sale last week for 150EUR! Just couldn't bring myself to do it.

Edit: wow - big foto!

What a line-up!

Rochefort Trappist 10 - benchmark quad - I'd go for this over Westvleteren 12.
St Bernie 12 - original recipe for W12 and more consistent than W12.
Westmalle Double - benchmark double - sweetness offset by yeasty spice - probably the lowest ABV in this lot.
Westmalle Tripel - benchmark tripel - banana and clove from the yeast, dry and a real alcohol hit.
Gouden Carolus Tripel - hhmm - a bit out of its depth in such company.
Tripel Karmeliet - probably my favourite tripel - banana, vanilla, coriander - goes down a bit too easy!

As an aside, chaps, how are you posting pics on here these days. I've been using the phone camera which automatically downloads to my laptop via Dropbox. I've recently had a message from Dropbox saying my free allowance has expired and I'm not willing to pay £6.99 pm to post pictures of plain bottle tops.
I'm not very techy. More tetchy.

Take photo which then puts it in your phone photo library (I assume), I always resize at this point as they're usually quite big pics (lookin' at you DP). Then just do the 'upload a file' nonsense from cyclechat. Piece of waz.

Ok, I'll have to do it from the phone rather than the laptop then.

Gouden Carolus Tripel - hhmm - a bit out of its depth in such company.

I quite liked it when I had a bottle in Belgium a few weeks ago. Mind you, I was very very drunk...

You will be again soon.

True, but I'll drink it first to see if it's up to much before getting blotto

This. I resize to 1024 pixels on the longest side, and then "Save for Web" which reduces the filesize to 30kb or so.
