edit: a 750ml bottle of fin du monde is about $5-6, duvel about $6-7. i've never seen a 750ml bottle of piraat at less than $10.

I've had Chimay Blue before and Ommegang a couple nights ago when they opened a Wegman's grocery store nearby. It was nice, but I like Duvel better (even though that's not apples to apples, I gather).

i love chimay, but i'm not overly fond of ommegang. however, i like strong pales more than strong darks.. though strong darks are nice during the northeast ohio lake-effected winters. if you like duvel, you should like fin du monde. just be sure it's not too cold when you drink it.

Big John,

I'm not sure where you live, but here in Quebec you can buy champagne sized bottles of La Fin du Monde. Even has a wired cork just like champagne.

A whole bottle of that and they'd be fishing you out of the gutter come sunrise.

More cheese?

Rockefort melted inside or over a steak. Your arteries will hate you but your taste buds will party all the way to the angioplasty.

i'm pretty sure that's the 750ml bottle (the one the cheery man is palming in the pic i posted). but if there's a bigger one i should like to know about it.

Best cheese is rijpenaar, period.

Mozarella at the moment and not that cheap plastic crap you get from a supermarket either.

Ugh scandinavian cheese! My mother likes that smelly crap but I think it is enough reason for an invasion for having biological agents. When I am at my mom and I open the fridge I could as well dig up a corpse BLEH!
