Do you guys pay out the ass for shipping over in Euroland when you buy beer online?

I always go splitsies with mates... Last haul (33 kgs) cost 12 € to ship.

This afternoon, whilst watching the Belgian Championship cyclo-cross at my brother's... Great 4.6% beer!..

Yesterday, I shared a bottle of Gouden Carolus Cuvée van de Keizer Rood 2012 with my dad... Seriously mindblowing evo... One of the best blond beers I've ever had...

Today, again at my parent's, I opened a bottle of Fantôme de Noel 2015. Stellar. Had a couple of fresh Fantômes recently, and this one blew 'm all away... Brilliant 10%, dark saison...

Dang. Shipping is so cheap

All of a sudden all these Chicago people are crawling out from under rocks and fallen tree stumps. Fulton Tap Room doesn't always have BCS on draft that's a fact, Chicago saw another large shipment of BCS recently because it was supposed to head to Georgia, but since certain laws prevent the sale of beers over the ABV of 13%, it all came back and got redistributed back to our market. Beer is lame drink more rum and wine, good day...

 

[Best Budz]

Oh, everytime I've been there it's been on tap.

 

[NOBD]

I had no choice.

 

[ChicagoMediaMan]

Wow, yeah, there is no way the Fulton Tap Room would always have it on tap. You've just been lucky.

 

[Best Budz]

I guess. I've been there 20+ times and it's always been on tap.

I did a count and clocked in at 586... No buying beer in february for me...

Damn. I really need more / better storage space. I'm not even at 20% of that and feel like I'm bursting at the seams.

Meh to very meh. Lemon and water.

Man that is really cheap for shipping. Forgot the exact amount, but in the past when I've checked online it was $30-50 to ship a 6 pack of bombers. Which if you're doing a big shipment, you're going to spend just as much on shipping as you will on beer.

So much better than Molotov Cocktail which whilst nicely hoppy was syrupy sweet - this is just hops without the excessive maltiness. I reckon the IBU was quite high on this one.



Finally managed to track this down. So smooth and complex with the chilli heat giving an extra dimension.

More Orval (while I can get it), an Austrian – pretty expensive – trappist, a Dutch Belgian triple-ish and quadruple-ish, a Scottish IPA, and the first 'special beer' I ever had, >30 years ago (back then from tap in a bolleke).
