Hertog Jan is cheap this week, 8 instead of 11,something. I'm already thirsty now, but the beer has to be nice and cool first

Re: Leffe: Vladimir's Beer Thread
Hertog Jan, that's a good one as well
Re: Leffe: Vladimir's Beer Thread
I'd say Abbot is way too strong to use as a session beer. It's 5% ABV, isn't it? I normally look for about 3.5 if I'm going to be drinking for a goodly length of time. I like Broadside very much, but I find it's normally very pricey compared to Spitfire and Abbot.

I hear ya. If I drink one of those 9% Fin du Monde beers, I'm snoozing in my chair like grandpa Simpson.Originally Posted by Big King Sanctaphrax
But it's a good snooze.
We have "energy beer" in Quebec now. Basically a 5% Ginseng power drink; so you can down one after another and not fall asleep, not matter how stupid you get. Not sure it's a good idea, really.

Most of those energy/caffeine beers taste like crap, they have a distinct chemical aftertaste. If your goal is to get blotto and stay awake all night, you may as well go all out with vodka and Redbull. Some of the coffee beers are OK though, there is a microbrew around here that has a decent porter with some coffee brewed in it.

Re: Leffe: Vladimir's Beer Thread
Recently, I .... came across information... that Kokanee Gold is a good beer. Of course, given the predisposition of college students to buy the cheapest, crappiest beer out there (busch lite, for one), it may just be the fact that it was a real beer that made it taste good.
It's canadian and sold primarily in Alberta, I think.

Re: Leffe: Vladimir's Beer Thread
Not a chance! A decent session beer should be 4.7% minimum and nothing less. Everything under that is a waste of liquid and stomach space!

I'm with Blackadder on this one:
Edmund: Baldrick, fetch my Incredibly Strong Ale...!
Monk: Good god! Not Dr McGloo's Amber Enema...?
Edmund: Pah! -- a drink for schoolgirls...
Partridge: Surely not Strollop's Lobster Scrumpy...?
Edmund: No -- it is Blackadder's Bowel Basher! A brew guaranteed to knock the backside off a concrete elephant! ...is it not,Baldrick?
Baldrick: Nah, it's water.
