    AH a topic just the way I like it. :p Belgium beers are from the best off the world you know. do you guys know this exellent beers?

    -Stella artois
    -Bockor
    -Leffe
    -Karmeliet
    -Gentse tripel
    -Wevelgemse tripel

    The last 4 beers are more heavier in alcoholpercentage, but these beers are worth a taste.

    Belgium does indeed have a fine tradition in Brewing even if you guys cant hold a candle to the Irish!!! ;)

    I have tried Chimay, Duvel, Leffe, Hoegaarten, Deleriumtremmins amongst others and find them most agreeable!

    -Stella artois

    I am a little cautious at a beer colloquially known as 'wifebeater' appearing on a list of excellence. ;)

    Stella seem to be desperately trying to shake off a certain image at the moment... not entirely sure it'll work.

    I'm not sure I entirely understand that. Does Stella have a image-problem? Not noticing anything here in Belgium about that, actually.

    :lol:
    Stella was/is the 'premium' beer of choice for the Hooligan element for a long while mate, it also gained something of a reputation for 3 pints at lunchtime 'somewhat limited concentration' afternoons at work.
    It's image in the UK is often as; 'chemical mix that leads to being extremely wasted' rather than; 'beer'. To the extent that they now appear to be marketing it as just 'Artois' in an effort to ditch the negative connotations of 'Stella'.

    I reckon that Stella is one of the worst chemical beers going. Personally I don't drink anything made by Inbev. Trouble is now that Heineken have taken over S&N and thus Alken Maes, I can't even have a Grimbergen with a Waffle anymore. I'm not going to start drinking Dutch (or Dutch owned) beer at my age.

    Not too much of a problem tonight as I is mostly drinking Affligem.

    Sounds like a good way to catch TB... :huh:

    'Chemical beer' indeed, we used to put 'em all into the bracket of 'chucking Lager', i.e. good for chucking about in a beer-tent, but not much else.

    I was going to post a link to Affligem but I see that bloody Heineken owns that now as well. These big brewers buy up beer faster than I can drink it ! Back to the Rochefort then.

    Slaghmuylder's Witkap Pater is worth a taste if you can get your tongue round it to order as well !

    bloody Stella haters :mad: :rolleyes: I gorgot Geuse to add to my list.

    Besides Rich Payne I really doesn't matter where the beer comes from as long as it's good and chilled to a perfect draft temperature. (and as loing as it insn't Maes or cara pils :p)
