    Both Belgian ales. I'd guess that they are hard to find in the USA. The straffe hendrik is a yearly riff on their standard triple using brett yeast. It's excellent. The pannepot is brewed by struise. This version has been aged in bordeaux barrels for 4 years. It's amazing. Good job I'm on leave this week.

    Well, screw politics. I'm celebrating fall with some seasonal brews and some Moroccan lentil stew in the cast iron pot over the fire. It doesn't getting Eddie Vedder than this ;)

    Wish I was able to find stuff from Maine Beer Company around these parts...that looks great.

    Another phenomenal beer from Saint Errant Brewing.  If you're in Chicago and see anything from them, get it.  Great stuff...

    Really good! It's from Vault, which is in Yardley outside of Philly. It's comparable to something like a Fall seasonal/pumpkin beer but more subdued (pushes nerd glasses).

    Cape May is great. I was going to pick up the Evacuation, too, but that Double IPA is dangerous. It definitely does not drink like a Double IPA.

    No luck here...how about you?  My brother and 2 of my friends entered everyday and none of us got anything. Brutal.

    No luck. Entered religiously every day. Entered my wife as well and still no dice. However, I just found out my friend’s father in law has an air tight connection with a GI distributor. He feels strongly that he can get me at least one, maybe two of each of the variants. Fingers crossed.
