    Made it to Florence and got to see the statue of David today. Very impressive. Much bigger (the statue) that I thought.

    Swinckels 'Superoir Pilsner'. Just to try. Taste is like lager, maybe mixed with a bit of pilsner. Not superior in any way.

    In fact this is the premium brand of Bavaria, a Dutch value for money brewery. I understood Bavaria is no more by now and the new name is Swinkels Family Brewers. Value for money is scrapped too in in the business-plan I think. I payed 3 euro's for this can of Dutch lager ... in the supermarket (!). In comparison: a large can of Warsteiner is about 1,17.

    Cheers!

    Good evening BA.

    I went to a local beer shop to purchase a couple beers. Was expecting Saison DuPont or something. Alas I will have to sip instead on a northern french triple that’s okay but not extraordinary. Why? Because say beer shop only had very local beer and no Belgian.

    No sea breeze today, so it's hot as hell here.
    This pilsner isn't cooling me off, either.

    Good Day BA's!

    I thought numerology was in my favor until I discovered the date code on my first choice was probably interpreted wrong since it is an import:

    1st up:

    The Straffe Hendrik line of beers made by Brouwerij De Halve Maan are impressive to say the least. Their Triple and Quadruple are above reproach...but it is their Tripel WILD that sets them apart. The flavors (Peach, Apricot, Melon, Grapefruit and a good amount of phenolics...like vinyl flooring, but in gorgeous manner!) Are all represented.

    Freshness:
    [​IMG]
    I originally thought this was bottled on 03 April 2015. However, I am thinking (being European) that it is Best By 04 March 2020. However, things like dates need not matter...two+ years into its 5-year(!) shelf life as deemed by the brewery is tasting beautifully and will clearly enjoy more time in the bottle.

    Round 2:
    This @foundersbrewing Barrel Aged release from last year was divisive, but I remain a fan. It has a ton of bourbon barrel character that starts boozy and sweet, yet finishes slightly bitter...I say well done, especially when employing Lager Yeast to ferment this beast!

    Exactly 1 year since packaging and it is drinking very well. #numerology:

    ...I rest now and prepare for another overnight session!

    #800 on Untappd. Every once in a while you gotta try something new. I had this on the front deck, enjoying the 90° temps. I thought this was awful coming out of the fridge, give it 20 minutes in the sun.......oh well.
    I think I'll wash my mouth out with a Peruvian Morning. Cheers!

    Having a taster of pineapple cream ale with lactose I made last month. Dangerous stuff right here in this 105 degree NE weather.
