My favorites - Rochefort Trappistes 6, Chimay Wite Label, Jolly Pumpkin Oro de Calabaza and Ephemere Pomme. Was not a fan of the Dogfish Head Ta Henket (smelled like tuna, seriously).
It was a great way to spend a Wednesday evening ;-) This is why I didn;t come to the cask opening this evening.
I would like to have gone to that but I could make it out... sounds like it turned out well though.
It was a really good night. And that Jolly Pumpkin was amazing.
Yeah - I'll have to ask about that Jolly Pumpkin next time I'm down there...
Missed you last night JohnE... :drink:
The Jolly Pumpkin was an off the menu special.
I would have joined you guys last night, but I was drinking with Esty. JohnQ stopped by our table for a bit.
Yup, I can confirm he does in fact exist!

What did you think of the Don de Dieu, that is among my favourite Belgian-style beers. It sure doesn't taste like its 9% abv
Don de Dieu is a dangerous beer.
JQ - Yes indeed he does exist, I have sampled Belgians twice now with John :-)
Kyle - Don de Diue is a very good beer indeed!
