Paul, right <!-- s:mad: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/mad.gif" alt=":mad:" title="Mad" /><!-- s:mad: -->
Let the world also cease then calling us Dutch: lovers of windmills, wearing wooden shoes, tulips, etc <!-- sSmile --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/smile.gif" alt="Smile" title="Smile" /><!-- sSmile -->

And, you guys make the best beer in the world. OK, not really, that's Belgium. But, close enough.

You mean there are other beers beside Belgium ones??? <!-- sConfusedhocked: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/shocked.gif" alt="Confusedhocked:" title="Shocked" /><!-- sConfusedhocked: -->

actually, i've only had one Dutch beer than i can think of. guess i have a new field to check out! what are some good offerings to keep an eye out for?

and you're right: Belgium currently wears the crown 'o suds.....mmm, Westy, gueuze lambics, Orval, Cuvee des Jacobins Rouge..... <!-- s:inlove: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/inlove.gif" alt=":inlove:" title="In Love" /><!-- s:inlove: -->

You know I'm a Trappist beer fanatic, and the NetherWorld <!-- sWink --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/wink1.gif" alt="Wink" title="Wink" /><!-- sWink --> does have one that is fantastic! (A quad, Trappist monks make this one too)

Had one of these and just about was in heaven.

Shlama,


you know i HAVE had La Trappe about a year ago, and it was great. it was the only time i've ever seen it sold here. the only other Trappist i've yet to try is Achel - haven't seen it here yet.

I'm going to be a Trappist monk in Belgium when I retire. Already told the wife "too bad." <!-- sWink --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/wink1.gif" alt="Wink" title="Wink" /><!-- sWink -->

It'd be cool to have an annual "get together" for Peshitta primacists and enthusiasts.

Good choice!
I love 'Brand-beer'. This is from a province near to Belgium at the border, Limburg. They have some hills in Belgium and Limburg and natural springs which are ideal for Beer.
