Your Beer of the week

[Wonders]

I love how the Belgians do a proper job and provide the right shape glass to present the beer so it looks and tastes to its best.
Been in a few pubs around me lately where you can get a pint in an inappropriate glass for the beer. I shouldn't let them get away with it I guess in addition to not bothering to visit again.

Winter Leffe, I've not tried that yet

Oh, I'd like to get my hands on that one too

 

[Peavy]

Winter Leffe is more like the brown than ruby. Prefer the brown but got the winter cheap tho.
Here is another daft strength Belgium beer. De Garre brew it in Bruges on the premises. Visited in June and bought a six pack. Had to get the glass from the bottle shop.

11% but doesn't taste it. If you like strong beer and are in Bruges it's well worth finding. They also had Golden dragon on draft.

That one looks great. Perfect colour

Have 16x Christmas Ale from Dartmoor.

Not strong but very slightly spiced up, not sure if they add anything. Very tasty.

Exmoor Beast 6% £2.68 per pint in Spoons Bournemouth yesterday - bloody lovely

 

[Peavy]

Why this simple Paulaner is so great? It's a pity it's in a can, I know, but it's just convenient for the van

 

[Peavy]

This week... Gouden Carolus classic.
Belgian Toasted beer, fruity. Very good.
With some sheep cheese from Zamora and a Damm Lemon for the missus.
Cheers

This week I’ve tried white rose brewery's black rose stout, that was very nice, and titanic plum porter, also very good, and also jubel peach, also very good!

I’ve not seen that one before! Does it taste anything like old peculiar?

Probably does, but without all the good stuff in it.

Passable but I find it's the body that's lacking in these zeros.

Some bottles are nicer than others, I always revert back to Timmy Taylor landlord or black sheep but there’s no comparison whatsoever between bottled beers and finding a proper pub with good hand pulled ale that’s been kept well.

 

[dazandandrea]

I think the rigwelter cherry is only available in small cans . Well it was from the brewery anyway.

Didn’t see any of this in Morrison’s St Ives, Cambs today.

I always come bank to Black Sheep, Timothy Taylor Landlord, then a nice port to round the evening off, these 2 tonight.

Also the cheap Guinness brew dog stuff is not a patch on proper Guinness.

 

[Taran_Las]

Must admit, Riggwelter is my blacksheep favourite.
