My new obsession is Brasserie des Franches Montagnes, from Switzerland. Specifically their Abbaye de Sint Bon-Chien, which I had on-tap in Richmond, VA a few days ago. One of the best beers I've ever had in my life. Stylistically it is somewhere between a strong Biere de Garde and a Flanders Red. The base beer is aged in wine barrels, whiskey barrels, sometimes rum and/or grappa barrels, and blended together at bottling. It tastes like a marriage of tawny port and Rodenbach Grand Cru. Deeply, deeply complex.
