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?
