Thanks for the offer, but I'm one of the very few Belgians who do not drink beer, and since it's a 2,5hr drive to get there, I'll pass. Are you planning on visiting some cities in Holland or Belgium while you're in the neighbourhood?Originally Posted by Freak Out

Francois?
I'll brewery hop for a few days then am heading to Germany and Elba to see some very good friends.

If you get to the Atlanta area try a Sweetwater 420 (Atlanta) and/or Terrapin Rye Ale (Athens)
My house is in Georgia but Wisconsin is my home.
Only breweries in Holland? Let me know if you pass through Belgium; there are some pretty good breweries over here.
Elba? I think Partial is in exile there.

No..We are heading to Belgium as well.....just for a day or two of tasting.

Cool! Let me know if I can help you with anything. Is everything already arranged or are you deciding on the fly where to go?No..
The only thing arranged is me flying into Holland....after that I'll wing it. I hate being tied to schedules while traveling. Give me a passport and the appropriate visas if needed and I'm happy.
So.....who has ever had a "Bourbon County Rare" from Goose Island? Fuck me running that's an amazing stout. Not worth the $40-$90 price some have paid....but I didn't pay for it.

I'm trying a new beer right now from one of our Micro Breweries here in S. Quebec. Master Brewer (Maitre Brasseur) NOIRE CLASSIQUE.
www.maitrebrasseur.ca or www.MAITREBRASSEUR.CA
It has a deep smoky taste with lots of aftertaste and it's bitter. It's like a bad date. I'll never purchase it again.

If you are ever in Canada and like a medium ale, try Big Rock Traditional. It has cost me many brain cells and stupid bets.
Anyone try this one? I have not sen it in stores around here (cough, cough, Freak Out, cough).

I've had it many times. Always pretty good.....you want one? My offer still stands.

Just for laughs....when you guys are at your local bottle shops ask if they have any Goose Island Bourbon County Rare. Let me know what you find out.

Is this stuff in season up there? That was an incredible beer.....maybe we need to do a little swapping again.

I have some of the last vintage of Berserker left.....I think the brewery has some in barrels right now...not sure when they'll bottle....it's great stuff. Did I send you a Barfly?
