    I think I've had all the ones listed here except for Moinette. I'll have to try that one.

    Of course then I walk into my local yesterday and they have Damnation in stock and once again I default to my American beers. Hard to pass on that one.

    Thanks to all for the suggestions.

    At 12, Chimay blue, and sai son dupoint are all favorites in their respective styles for me.

    Some friends and I blind tasted a dozen of the more accessible Belgians (Duvel, Abt 12, Westmalle Tripel, La Chouffe, etc.), including one or two local takes on the styles. Chimay Red was the big winner for me, with Delerium Tremens a close second.

    La Fin du Monde is always a great one too, for a fair price.

    Sadly, 2 Orvals are not 750 ml, and probably not close to $10.

    ~$5.50 a piece here, but 2 bottles only gives you 660mL.
