So I have been drinking and reviewing a lot of Belgian beer lately but few have tickled my fancy. I got this one Flemish Sour Ale that was freaking disgusting.

What are your favorite Belgian beers?

I am mostly looking for answers from people overseas and hopefully I can find them here.

    Take a trip to Asheville, NC - just voted Beer City USA (albeit a dead tie for first with Portland,OR) There are alot of great brews here and local Belgian blends that will rival any. Plenty of others in the mix. I actually prefer the real Belgian brew: Green's. Here are the three beers Discovery Amber (6% abv), Endeavour Dubbel (7% abv), Quest Tripel (8.5%). Let me know what you think.

    I tried a Belgian beer last Saturday, it is called Fruli and it is a strawberry beer. Do not recommend it, it tastes like bad-yogurt or coughing syrup, or a combination of both, yikes!

      strawberry beers are gross!
    2. Jaybetee
      i have to say that most fruit flavored beers are gross

    The best Belgian beer is Westvleteren. It's very difficult to get. The other favourites I have are Dubuisson's Bush Amber and Huyghe's Delirium Tremens.

    You can get most of these beers from this fine little shop in Brussels:

      beer makes your belly blow up like a balloon.

      Beer makes me sick =\

      Like literally sick. I think I may be allergic to the hops or something.
    3. dbowles1017
      Because this one is already here...
  16. celticmusicfan

  17. celticmusicfan

      Can't take the taste of ale, never liked it, I'm a Lager man
    2. cookingasshole
      get any good lagers in Florida?
    3. FreakSmack
      I'm sure there are some but I've never tried them. I've always been happy with PBR or Bud. Boring, I know. They taste like water, I know (water is good)
    4. crpitt
      There was no need for that at all TT.
    5. cookingasshole
      wow...reported much?

      @TT: It's always a good strategy to live and let live. If CA wants to bump up old threads--well, they ARE his to bump up.

        G'morning. This is such fun and it's Saturday. Why not play some games? I'm sharing my sense of humor here, in case you haven't noticed. ... lol .

        I'm off to the Farmer's Market -- see you later.

    It's not Belgian, but my favorite beer is Krombacher (SP?) from Germany.

    It's not sold in the states. I found it while in the Rep of Georgia. Georgians are big on wine. Krombacher was better than anything else, especially American beer.

    Additionally, I can't keep up.
    First its the monkey. Then the guy. Then the monkey. Then a doll.
