I have a friend who drinks only Bud-Lite; other than that, he seems pretty smart.

PG, that's one heck of a black mark against him, though. Just sayin'.

"No seriously, officer! I only had 10!"

"What were you drinking?"

"Bud lite."

"You can go about your way."

Okay texag04, tell us what you thought!

Was it the first time you had it? Did it live up to the billing?

For my money, the way you drank it is the ONLY way to drink it.

Oh yes, feedback...

It was a great. For some reason it kind of reminded me of Belhaven.

Very good beer overall, good flavor and aroma and it definitely led to a nice buzz. Something about knowing that you are drinking something with more of a history to it that adds to the experience.

04texag, what size was the bottle? 750mL, 1.5L or 3L?

After knocking back a couple of those, how the heck did those monks ever mis-transcribe celibate for celebrate?

The counter reformation continues as well... brewing an Imperial Smoked Porter next weekend.

I assume Orval is at Spec's as well? I think I'd like to try that one next.

Well thanks Doc! Only so much though in that I got the recommendation to try from here!

I bought the 1.5L. Good stuff and I may have to buy a few for our thanksgiving trip to Austin next week and share with my Father and brother-in law. As they are Catholic, they should really embrace their roots!

Excellent, I can swing by one after work. I hope it's there.... If it is not, I will be sure to post and complain about it.

Well, here I am complaining. It figures, as the one that is close to where I live isn't as big as most of the others.

MAKE IT A CRUSADE!!!!



CONVERT THE UNBELIEVERS!!!!



DRINK CHIMAY . . . . or . . . we'll . . . you know, . . . . force you to drink Miller Lite Lime.



Not exavtly burning, looting, and razing to the ground . . . but you know.


Still Pret-ty, pret-ty, pret-ty bad.

Many of the dim bulbs on the GB will believe they are in paradise rather then the torture you intend. So sad.

Pilgrimage

Crusading pilgrimage?

Sounds good as well. I could also stand for a little inquisition while we're at it. They'll never expect the Spanish Inquision!!

Nobody ever does.

Heathens!

Sounds like they need a good persecuting crusade!


Now, I need to get back to costructing a banner design to lead the Trappist Armies to conquest . . .

It is going to be a tough fight Dr. M. The hordes of the GB are massive and the numbers of the R&P few. However the goal of this crusade is true so worth the sacrifice.

This stuff is nasty, I don't know how you guys can drink it personally. Beer syrup... blah..

Anathema sit!

We prefer beer that is more than seltzer water with a hint of barley flavor.

Wait, I think I have a leftover Zima for you from my wife's Girl's Night Out/Tupperware extravaganza.

You could always jazz it up with a slice of Orange . . .

And what, pray tell, would be the beers you enjoy?
opk
How long do you want to ignore this user?
What would be a nice accompaniment to the Chimay? A couple potato latkes w/sour cream? Herring in wine sauce? Or, something more substantial like a KC Strip, medium rare?

OPK:
A nice steak with baked potato and salad would be complimented rather nicely by the Chimay (Blue or Red). Fresh seafood (saltwater), rice pilaf and roasted veggies would be well complimented by Chimay White.

TLS:
Re: Miller... I suppose you find it acceptable since it is triple hopped?

I would not defile such fine beer as Chimay by mixing it with anything.

I deserves to be sipped with good friends.
