Just Rodenbach Grand Cru? I think their stuff is flash pasteurized and doesn't really improve with age; no live yeast cultures or bacteria. But that doesn't really matter because their beers are delicious regardless.

No, the limited edition Barrel No. 95.

Ahhh, fantastic beer. The vintage versions are delicious, as well as Rodenbach Alexander. I'm pretty sure the vintages are still pasteurized, but they're still freaking delicious.

May be pasteurized, not sure. I don't see anything on the bottle saying either way. In any case, it's oak aged for a couple years before it's released.

Had a bottle with a buddy at the World of Beers in Columbia, SC, last week, bought one to take with me on the spot and bought a second bottle before I left for the night.

D-line should do some lateral motion and see if the o-line jumps. They are trying to bait them every down

I'll have to try a bottle.

Yep, probably me. I've been on them for years, hard to get out!

Nah, being pasteurized doesn't really matter, it just means it won't develop any more in the bottle. Rodenbach does the Flanders Red like no one else. I've never been disappointed in any of their beers.

I've been pretty limited in what's available down here, there just isn't a lot. I don't know if I posted about it here or not, but there's a taphouse in Wilmington, NC, that makes a sour and keeps it on tap. I spent a week in that town last year and hit that place I think four of the five nights I was there.

Let me know when you're in town for a game next season or something; I'll dig into the cellar and we can have something super sour.

You got it! :thumb:

The only thing I can find consistently here is the Duchesse De Bourgogne, which I do enjoy. Other than that, it's a hit and miss mix of gueuzes and lambics.

phisherman 01-12-2014 08:04 PM

Duchesse is good, but it's pretty sweet. I really enjoy Lindeman's Cuvee Rene Geueze, cheap and ages well. Tilquin Geueze is also very good. I can't leave out the obligatory mention of both Cantillon and Drie Fonteinen when mentioning lambics; anything these two breweries put out will be top notch.

You might try to find Cuvee Des Jacobins around, that stuff is on point. Super sour.

Got some new stuff at Whole Foods in Houston this afternoon. I kept seeing you guys mention Lagunitas in this thread, and while I don't think it's the exact one you guys were talking about, I couldn't pass up on grabbing the only one I've ever seen in a store around here.

Don't know much about the Smoke on The Bayou" either. It's from Buffalo Brewing Company in Houston. Figured I'd give it a try.

The Boulevard I bought simply because I like their beer and this one has a couple of beers that it says were only samplers at the brewery. Those two are in the second picture. Can any of you KC guys tell me anything about them?

Both the Mid-Coast and the Rye are excellent, drinkable beers. I got lucky they were both there this summer when I went and I had several of each. the Mid-Coast was my favorite at that time.

Thanks. I'm not usually a big fan of IPA's, but they've been growing on my lately. I've got a friend that's big into them, there's three in the box, so one will go to him. Hopefully this Boulevard matches up well to his California standards.
