    La sottise, l'erreur, le péché, la lésine,
    Occupent nos esprits et travaillent nos corps,
    Et nous alimentons nos aimables remords,
    Comme les mendiants nourrissent leur vermine.

    Rochefort 10, Westy 12, and St. Bernadous 12 are all about the same, imo.

    My personal favorite Belgian is Cantillon St. Lamvinus.

    Oh Jesus, this is damn near impossible for me. In no particular order:
    1. Westy 8
    2. Cantillon Lou Pepe Framboise
    3. Saison Dupont
    4. La Trappe - Quad
    5. Westmalle - Tripel

    In no particular order...

    1.) Fantome Saison
    2.) Gulden Draak
    3.) St. Bernardus Christmas/Westy XII (it's a toss-up)
    4.) New Glarus Wisconsin Belgian Red
    5.) Rodenbach Grand Cru

    (Very) honorable mentions go to Goose Island Matilda (aged, bottled), Tripel Karmeliet, Duvel, and a handful of others, both domestic and imported
