Give me ambiguity or give me something else.

I drink a ton of Belgian beer and have had a few from that very brewery, but I haven't had that one. Let me know how it is.

(EDIT:In fact, everything in my picture to the right of that Dragon's Milk is Belgian. Three of them - the Westmalle, Rochefort and Westvleteren - are Trappist ales brewed in monstaries by monks.)

Looking at the reviews, that looks like one that could benefit from a few years in the cellar. BSDAs like that tend to age well.

The Westmalle is one of the best beers in the world. Also costs $10 a bottle.

I've never paid more than $6 for either the dubbel or the tripel. Their tripel is probably the best I've had in the style. What I have in the pic is their dubbel and it is world class, but I would rank Chimay's dubbel, the red, ahead of it. The red is cheaper too. 4 12 oz bottles for 19ish around here.

The three quads are better beers IMO. A good argument could be made that they are the best on earth. The monks at St. Sixtus, the ones that make the Westvleteren, do use Westmalle yeast though.
