I realize that most of us have to live within some sort of budget but the price differential between a quality beer and a vomit-inducing piss beer is just not great enough to warrant the choice of a lousy beer.

That.

Life is too short to drink cheap beer. Give me a Trappist Ale (imported from Belgium, not the domestic) any day.

I gave one of my Sergeants a large bottle of Chimay for Christmas with instructions on how to chill it for no more than one hour before drinking. A bottle of this size holds about two glasses.

He came to work a couple days later and told me that he drank a glass, really enjoyed it and decided to drink the rest of the bottle. He went on to tell me that his wife found him asleep on the couch with an empty beer glass in his hand. He decided that from that day forward he was a Chimay man.

On the continent, yes, the Belgian monks rule.

It is the collection of islands a bit to their west, however, that makes the best brews on the planet.
