    Has to be Victory Golden Monkey, North Coast Pranqster, Green Flash Rayon Vert and Ommegang BPA. Three Philosophers gets an honorable mention.

    Goose Island Sofie is pretty fantastic and reasonably priced.

    Is Allagash Curieux disqualified due to bourbon barrel aging? If not, I choose that.

    They should, Ommegang is owned by Duvel.

    Ergo, this beer would qualify as well - under that standard? :wink:

    As of just last week, Ommegang Abby Dubbel. Love me some Victory Helios, Unibroue Maudite (NA), Allagash Witte, and other Belgian styles by these brands. Had an Allagash Coolship Resurgam this past summer which was a total beer moment for me.

    Ommegang Abby Dubbel with pound cake is a match made in heaven

    I was murdered on this website a couple of years ago for not loving Lost Abbey- thought it was better and cheaper to buy the real thing. Now Lost Abbehy barely gets a mention.

    Its already been mentioned, but my favorite is Ommegang Hennepin. Also, Allagash Odyssey is an amazing Belgian dark.

    I'm quite fond of Weyerbacher Verboten , myself- not too many others I enjoy as much in the 5-ish% range. We could definitely use more like that one.

    I basically scrolled down this liking every post with Ommegang. I had never heard of them before I visited the Duvel brewery, saw them when I came back and I grab everything I can from them. I LOVE Three Philosophers, Hennepin, their Abby ale, Gnomegang. Everything I have tried from them is gold (granted I need to try more)
