Joydip Basu: Qualifies as a "beertail" 🍸
Emmanuel is drinking a Noblesse by Brouwerij De Dochter van de Korenaar
Only 5,5% alc.? Oh, it's a top-fermenting Lager alternative. Clear as a Lager, versatile like a Blonde with a strong yeast profile. Pithy afdronk, bitter, fruity, a bit spiced/herbal (only the four basic ingredients though) and light. ➡️➡️➡️

Emmanuel is drinking an Affligem VI Donker Deluxe 2025 by Affligem Brouwerij
Nice. A Stronk Dark or hefty Dubbel that goes perfectly with this Ole Dutch grey shite. Pretty darn good for a Big Brewer actually: smooth n stable, dark n sweet and interesting. Added brown sugar (shout out to D'Angelo) and .almostnothing% cocoa powder.

Emmanuel: Great one. My best Affligem thus far.🇧🇪🍺
Emmanuel: Joydip B. Beertail eh👊👌🍺
Emmanuel is drinking a Chimay Grande Réserve (Blue) by Bières de Chimay
Never bad. Smooth, nutty, bitterish and not that sweet. Not an all time favorite, I guess I prefer either heftier Strong Darks or sweeter, intenser ones. That said, this is obviously a balanced and consistent classic. 🇧🇪🍺

André: Still one of the best beers of the world.
Emmanuel is drinking a Domtoren IPA by Brouwerij Utrecht
Forgettable, pleasant IPA from me stadsjie waar. Unoutspoken maybe but kinda perfect, could drink it all night. Utereg!✊
Emmanuel is drinking a Corsendonk Grand Hops (2023) by Brouwerij Corsendonk
Yeah, nice. Apples on the nostrils for starters. Green ones. Sweet, malty, honey, slightly nutty-bitter and lots of foamy CO2. Great Blonde with Hallertau-Mittelfrüh. A bit bland in terms of hops perhaps ('23) but still enjoyable.
