Ha! I'm going to make labels and call it Babylon Brew. I'm thinking of starting a monastic order in Iraq and convert it to a brewery...not sure if the Muslim neighbors will appreciate it, though.
The taste is not quite there yet as far as imitating the "West" 12. Almost though. I became intent on recreating it after it nearly broke the bank. It's so expensive. You can get the authorized clone of it at a finer liquor store, like Binny's Beverage Depot. I think it's called "Abt 12", made by the St. Bernadus brewery. Still very pricey, though. But well worth it.
