Christmas Ale | Brouwerij St. Bernardus

This is a great beer even if the journey across an ocean is obvious. Slight thinness and a metallic off-note keep this from standing out.

Moinette Brune | Brasserie Dupont

A good beer but I’m sure this is way better at source. It’s impressive how well the beer has help up against time and travel. At the cheap price point, it certainly offers good value.

Gâteau Forêt-Noire | Unibroue

An outstanding if sweet beer. Ample alcohol and cherry tartness cut right through the sugar but some drinkers might find this to be too much. If your palate tends to align with mine, then you’re in for a high value treat.
