    Heineken is ok, not the best not the worst, a fine drink.

    It has arrived. I found a place close to work that sells this stuff on draft and in the bottle but now I finally have a case of my own. I've never paid $100 for beer before. I used to drink $50 at the bar (Tennessee prices), and $100 for scotch, but never for beer.

    Fragony, I love ya, but I also love this beer. Please don't make me choose....

    Reinvent the British and you get a global finance center, edible food and better service. Reinvent the French and you may just get more Germans.

    If you go broke before you get drunk, you are a fool. Maybe it's just my southron blood, but honestly, cheap beer tastes better by the simple fact that it's cheaper.

    You paid $100 for Gulden Draak!? That's just mad. While I'd agree it's more than decent beer, I've yet to find a beer that is worth $100. I think a large bottle of Gulden draak costs a mere 3-4€'s or something over here.

    A case people, a case. That's less than 4 and a quarter per.

    While that's still alot for small bottles, it isn't insanely high priced anymore.

    It will still set you back a pretty penny. For example at http://www.rusticorestaurant.com/bar.htm you can get it on tap for about twice as much of you can buy a bottle from the late 90's for $27. I'm not sure how well it ages in a bottle but the standard stuff is pretty good.

    If I could find a job in Belgium that pays just a little better than my current one I'd take it. And it's not just for the beer.
