Can you buy Summit down there? It's brewed here, and very good stuff.

I don't recognize the label.
This area sucks compared to my hometown because where I grew up has so many microbreweries and the even the grocery stores generally carry a better selection than those here.
Of course, pros and cons, there are great things I can buy here easily but never saw there.

I'm a Philistine, I know, but I dislike any beverage at room temperature, and wine is no exception- it's got to be cold for me.
See, this is even a biblical principle!

Drinking some Leffe Blonde now... Not the very best Belgium has to offer, but a very pleasing brew nonetheless. And we found it at our local Seven Eleven ! Micky, on the other hand, is enjoying a bottle of Newcastle Brown Ale, which I also used to make a wonderful pork and vegetable stew.

 Not quite premium...

I'm a Belgian sucker for Belgian beers who had too many in a Belgian bar yesterday evening.
Voted Chimay Bleu, very sweet and one of my classics.
There's too many favourites to mention, like the amber coloured triple they brew here just around the corner and Duvel obviously.

Ugh Leffe has such a horrible metallic after taste. Glad you like it though!

Last week Micky and I went to one of our favourite eating spots in Washington, DC - the famous Pizzeria Paradiso in Georgetown, which has a killer selection of beers (besides excellent, Italian-style pizzas). We had two huge glasses of a simply fantastic German dark wheat beer called Aventinus (look it up on the web if you want) - but, boy, the world did spin around us for a while when we left the restaurant !

Belgian beer is way too sweet for my tastes (especially the monastery beer), but it's definitely the most amazing beer I've ever tasted (well, there wasn't just one, it was just a figure of speech  ) This is one of my favourites, not that sweet so I can drink more of it!  Tripel means that it has a triple alcohol concentration!

! This gruitbier is excellent indeed. I got some as a birthday present some months ago and since then it has a place among my favourites. The stout is even outstanding.
