I'm going back to Maredsous this weekend. I sent an e-mail to their website asking where I might find a set of their glasses here in the US.

Brasserie Dupont Foret
with some aged provolone, that isn't as good as it smells :(
-
There is good news...
I talked to the in-store importer guy ( :confused5: )... are ya with me? ....... He's going to order Sleeman Honey Brown for me (because I'm a dedicated Gold Club member of his liquor store) and he's also going to look into a set of the Maredsous stemmed glasses, as shown on their USA homepage:
www.maredsous-usa.com
"YES! That's what I want!"
-
sounds like a good beer - if i see some Maredsous around i'll give it a go

The #10 is a much better experience than #8, which was happily verified by my expectations for this Belgin... Benedictine Monk produced ale. My tastebuds were well prepped for some inhalation of this fine receipe (whoops! :eek: ) and I certainly wasn't dissappointed..., except for... just one... eerrrrr... one slight problem...
( :skep: ) A tinge of aluminium at the tail end of the chase down to my belly and up to my brain. Gets a C+.

ACK - that is purely in the domain of malt liquors in tin cans. I know times are hard, and spreading a wider net to capture more capital is needed, but Belgium ales shouldn't be encroaching on the one trust things a malt liquor can do right. :crazy: :crazy:
-
It sucks, no doubt about it, but I try to make the best of a bad situation ya know what I mean?
This beer costs $11.00 for a 4-pack of 11.2 oz's of 10% malt ale... it kicks azz! :yikes:
-
ya no beer this weekend, maybe next once im off the drug enduced coma my oral surgeon prescribed me ;)
And BTW, I'll lime my Chevy up against your Pontiac any day for a case of beer ;)

Rich, Buddy.....Pal........................ I know you told him to order a little extra for ol' Cartman, right? :ihih: BTW, where did you order it from? Wonder if they would ship me some if they can get it. I wonder if Rich is now regretting posting this? :p Cartman smells Sleeman, Cartman is on the trail!
-
Oh geez! You're right, I am regretting it. :mad2:
The name of the liquor store is Siegel's. I found out from the guy that Sleeman's just recently got licensed in Texas (something like that) so who knows, maybe it'll start showing up on shelves here.
I gave my remaining stock of Leffe another chance last night but this time it went down without such a heavy taste. Very smooth and finished well. Maybe not so bad afterall.

gotta wait till spring though, weather is getting to crappy ou tfor palying around up here LOL
had our first "snow" yesterday night, nothing stuck, just some mixed rain/flurries, but it got me in the mood to start cleaning the garage so i can tear it apart this winter
-
I think you've already posted these haven't you? (The missing headlight assy sticks out in my brain). I forget easy these days. :mad2:
There's probably still some Friday Night Street racing to be had down at the Texas Motorplex, but my car hasn't seen a dragstrip in many moons.

I'm sad to report that it looks like this old boozer will not be partaking in a Sleeman's Honey Brown taste test any time soon. My contact at the liquor store said no dice. That's okay, I'll stick with my current selection, Maredsous #10. I also have a phone number now to call so I can order a set of glasses. I just hope the price is reasonable and shipping costs aren't rediculous, and maybe that ever-so-slight metallic tinge won't be noticeable when I pour it into a fancy glass.
Anyway, Happy Friday! :thumbsup:

I found a place in Seattle online that had 5 (yes 5!) bottles? I asked how he had just 5 and he told me they were singles. I sweet talked him for a while (on company phone) and almost had him special ordering me a couple cases to ship. He got cold feet and said he did not really special orders. G*# Fu@#*^$! Dam$&*! I was that freaking close to some Sleeman! I'm still on thr trail though.
Anyway, there is an 50/50 chance I might be moving to the Seattle area in the next year or so.............so who knows, I might be swimming it the stuff soon.

There's a couple of places in town that stock the stuff on the shelves. I would tend to suggest a locale prone toward carrying obscure micros. Worst case scenario:
