Brouwerij Het Anker Gouden Carolus Cuvee Van de Keizer

Cuvee Van de Keizer Beer: 3.0 – That’s too many words. Like as a beer that’s so much. Sorry the last sentence wasn’t about the name, but the beer itself. There’s so much going on, but overall there’s a cloying sweetness that you can’t escape from. It’s like being stuck in a sugary black hole – it’s astounding and so much is intriguing, but you will die of sugar.

Price Average: $13

Victory Brewing Company Twelve Liquid Luxury

Victory Twelve: 5.5 – We were pleasantly surprised by our other Victory Brewing Company experience – which as an IPA that was actually – good. Here however they have gone for a beer to be complex and luxurious. In that respect they have succeeded – this is complex in flavor, and in texture. It’s not heavy, but it is potent. The problem though is that while all that is true – it’s not a great beer. If given the option I’d likely never have it again – which sure you can make your beer ‘intoxicating’ but it needs to be good overall to survive.

Duvel Belgian Golden Ale

Duvel Belgian Golden Ale: 6.0 – Poor slowly when you do this because this is a seriously bottle conditioned head-y beer. However I love the lingering aftertaste from this beer – it’s kinda like what brewers try to pass off as nuts and bananas. For the record we are now more than 1/4 of the way done and this is the highest so far (just barely beat last week’s Dos Equis)

Tap Brewing Company Honing Belgian Ale w/ Honey

Honing: 5.5 – Now this is certainly one of the few beers with honey, and even fewer one that actually tastes like honey was actually involved. However while it has a nice taste, it’s just not that magical combination that you would want a Belgian Ale and a Mead to have an amazing baby.

Plum Island Belgian White

Plum Island Belgian White: 5.5 

Another unfiltered Belgian White beer made with Coriander and Orange Peel. This is something that has become commonplace for most beer companies to do and is about the fifth new one I have tried.  Though it may be boring, it doesn’t mean it isn’t good. Sold in cans which makes it one of the best beers I had ever had from a can. Fairly average but good.

Google Shop Average: Plum Island Belgian White $10 (12oz Can 6-Pack)
