Thread: Beer of the Day !

Enjoying some Pale Ale and Weizen beer from Norway's oldest brewery tonight.
I guess the name will give a chuckle or two to our English speaking members
It is actually pronounced something like "ous" (two AA's make an å (oh) in Norwegian)

I think we have to start trading beer...you know ...like tea and baccy

A nice glass of homebrew! Made it together with a friend of mine. It's Belgian style tripel, and with an ABV of about 9.5-10% it does pack quite a punch. There's some sweetness in it, but certainly not too much. We agree on keeping beers bitter. We added some herbs (cardamom and coriander) and they go with it perfectly. Though maybe, I'd use a tad bit less coriander the next time.

Next up we're going to brew a strong, dark christmas beer!

That sounds amazing! now that the warmer weather is here I'm leaning towards the wheat ales again. Drank way to many stouts and dark ales over the winter months. Enjoy!!!

Thanks man! I'm actually just getting into stouts. Tried only a few until now, not counting the standard (but nonetheless nice) Guinness. I generally do like them.

My favourites during the warm weather are some of the more sour beers: a genuine kriek or geuze or a nice Rodenbach. Warm weather won't stop me from drinking any kind of beer though. The multitude of beer is one of the most important advantages of living in Belgium! Though I've read that the US is really developing a culture of microbreweries?

A beer I haven't tried before

From the UK. Wye Valley Brewery.
Dorothy Goodbody's wholesome stout.

- Quite good to burgers.

Good looking tomatoes!
