That would actually be a terrific investment...wonder what the proof is?

>> “world’s best beer”

No such thing.

That’s as absurd as the “world’s best” dish.

Anyway, a lot of those Phlegmish beers have so much alcohol in them that they taste like crap.

You are never going to homebrew anything near as good as the Trappist Monks.

Speak for yourself.

I’ll take a Guiness with a shot of Bushmills on the side. :)

Ha! I’d like to try one, someday, but doubt I would buy a whole 6-pack. One at the Abbey as part of a wider Abbey beer tour would be good.

I’ll try and find it.

Have you tried Julius Escher? That’s a cheaper variant and quite good.

Weihenstephan is pretty good, but it has an aftertaste. Paulaner I find so/so.

Totally disagree. I haven’t tried any of the others other than the Weihenstephan, but that doesn’t hold a candle to Maisel’s.

I’ll look into the ones you mentioned that I haven’t tried.

And the beer coming into the states has to be bonded or pasturized...not a true taste from the brewery.

There is no pasteurization requirement. All of the many Belgian beers I drink are neither pasteurized nor filtered.

When Strohs had a brewery here in Detroit, I had a friend who worked there. He said throughout the plant there were beer dispensers for the employees. They could drink all they wanted as long as it didn’t affect their job performances......

That's true. My childhood best friend lived next door. His dad was the guy who painted those iconic red and gold beer trucks ...

As time passed, my college fraternity brothers honored me with the designation of "Strohs Beer Truck Tail Gunner".

“They could drink all they wanted as long as it didn’t affect their job performances......”

For me, back in the day......if I drank all I wanted..... it would eventually affect my job performance.

If not today, perhaps tomorrow morning. If not this year, sometime in the future.

But eventually ...
