    Does anyone make one? After grabbing some SN Beer Camp boxes, I realized I'd love a SN Ovila 12-pack containing a few each of a saison, dubbel, tripel, etc. Does any brewer make a Belgian-style variety 12-pack? (And please don't answer "Blue Moon.")

    Unibroue does a mixed pack in the winter months (maybe all year), its usually at Trader Joes.

    Off the top of my head, I would think that Ommegang would be the most likely to do one.

    You mean American brewers brewing in the style of ? right? If not I have seen some importers of all Belgium made beer products in the stores. I think it was a 12 pack.

    I've bought at least one variety pack from Ommegang, can't recall what it contained but I think it had both Gnomegang and Hennepin, as well as a pretty nice glass. I've also seen another one from Ommegang (which I passed on) that had Chocolate Indulgence. Both of these were boxes containing either three or four 750mL bottles.

    Sour Power was a variety sixpack -- you could buy two of them!

    The two that I'm aware of, and I've bought both in the past, are Sour Power as mentioned above and St. Bernardus. If memory serves, the St. Bernardus had one of each of Watou Tripel, Abt 12, Wit, Tripel, Pater 6 and Prior 8.

    I've seen Chamay 3 colored bottle gift pack with glass sold in stores but that is all I recall seeing.

    Ommegang has a mixed 8 for about $18. They've also had a number of combos in the past with two or three regular 750s and either a special release or a glass. I believe only the 8 is current.

    True--3 bottles and a glass, but it's priced a bit high relative to a 4-pack of any of them. Nice idea though.

    Also Costco occasionally puts out a "Belgian 18" for about $24. But most of that is from the Leffe stable, no heavy hitters.

    Ommegang has a few samplers. Not sure if anyone else makes a Belgian sampler, but it would be great if more people did.

    Just buy every beer Unibroue distributes and tape them together.

    Get 4 friends, have each bring two bottles of a style, get together, enjoy! Write down what you had, liked and repeat, etc...
