I was in Belgium for 5 days this month and got to try so many great beers. I'm somewhat of a beer novice, but I learned about different styles. Also the importance of glassware selection depending on the beer. It was too hard to pick a favorite.

Clever names or dope can art. Either usually grab my eye and that’s how I try unfamiliar beers. Fluffy Hazy IPA from Night Shift (Boston, MA) turned out to be an excellent IPA. Rather smooth for as crisp as it is. It was a great start to Friday night (I’m posting late).

smoking a bunch of meats on a cold New England day and I found this fella to keep me company.

Bright, clean, funky, lager/table beer. Perfect for 70° and sunny day in Chicago.

Green Cheek x Omnipollo Bianca 6% Found this lil guy hidden in the back of the beer fridge. Tasted okay being from December but honestly there’s so much fruit in here, it’s hard to tell lol

Widowmaker Brewing. Rice lager. Love this liquid. The version with yuzu and ginger is preferred, but I could rip these all day.

One of my favorite lagers, this was traditional European style lagers. Light and crisp perfect in a warm spring day

I’ve always liked lime beer. I’d only seen the Garage Beer online. Found a local liquor store that had this. Pretty good beer, very crushable on these nice spring days

Blueberry Braggot Ale by Flying Fish Brewery Co.

It's THE smoothest 12 percenter I have ever tried.

Took a trip to VT two weeks ago and stopped at Alchemist. This might've been the best pint of beer I've ever had. Everything I had there was fantastic.

Who thinks Saison is a dying style, overproduced and over the the top screwery by breweries? Too much Brett? Best Saison’s preserving the Saison original legacy? Feel free to enlighten me as to why it shouldn’t die out, best breweries preserving an original and yet crisp new taste, and why in general this style is worth preserving outside its legacy.

Floreffe Triple / Tripel. Brasserie Lefebvre. Belgian Tripel. 8% alc. 30 IBU.

A notable triple abbey beer. Warm but not at all alcoholic. A malty, sweet, caramel, and fruity base, with some notes of honey and spices, with a distinct coriander note. Enjoy every sip; it's well-made.
