Definite beer highlights of the day for me were supping the never bad De Molen "Vuur en Vlam" in the post office vaults. Which by my reckoning is the quintessential European take on an American IPA; the freshness of both the Amarillo and Cascade hops in this are so to the fore as to be a credit to the beer and Mennonite as well. That and the discovery of a Saison Dupont Biologique 6 months past it's BBE in The Anchor. Which as with most Belgian beers of this style has only got better with age, now if only I can can convince an outlet to age some Orval for a good three years in Birmingham I'll definitely be the proverbial pig in muck.<br /><br />I'd definitely be up for a return visit at some point in the future with perhaps a different itinery, so as I can see more of what my home region has been up to in my absence.<br /><br />Cheers<br /><br />TTimhttp://mobile.twitter.com/#!/MarbleTimnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4292703385505761543.post-39447514929335968772012-04-23T22:45:19.894+01:002012-04-23T22:45:19.894+01:00Sounds like it was an excellent night with a good ...Sounds like it was an excellent night with a good turnout.
