Happy happy joy joy. I'm back home in the Netherlands, and
have found that one of the cafes that I often sit in while
writing has Westmalle, the Trappist beer I discovered in
Brussels. My heart soars like an eagle.
They also have a beer from the Himalayas called Yak Piss.
Something about Purusha Bottling Company on the label,
which is some kind of pastels-gone-wild painting, with
lots of gold embossing. But given the description of that
brew I cognized yesterday on the train, and the chilly
reception it received here, I think I might avoid that
one. :-)
Not much into alcohol mainly stimulants like espresso. But if I want to
stock up on a six or twelve pack for guests I usually get Gordon Biersch
Martzen. And a micro brewery is moving into the recently closed family
Italian restaurant downtown so may have to give it a whirl when it
opens. One evening with a friend I went to a local micro brewery and we
decided to order the sampler. I was used to these being about 6 small
glasses. They brought 18. ;-)
