Mrs from Dunkerque, North france so I've had a few of these..

The 3 Monts 'Grand Reserve' is a little more potent at 9.5% but the normal stuff really good (I normally get a crate or two on the crossing).

I had Des Cats but wasn't as impressed, althouh it's drinkable..

1664 seems to taste different in france and quite nice.

Will have to look out for the others

The Mont Des Cats is an easy drinker for sure. It's very light tasting for a Trappist beer.

It's this whole <5% tax thing, 1664 is 5.5% in France. Ever since they reduced it here it tastes like pee, same as Stella.

You can buy it by the CRATE?!?!!?

This is one of my top 5 beers of all time, I love every moment I get to have a bottle of it

Oh yes 75cl wine sized bottles too..

Here's my first taste - at the family table (the pizza is because I'm lactose intolerant to a degree):

Normal 3 monts:

Oh - do I get some points for French beer - made from wine?

It's like a weaker fruit beer - has a reputation for going nuts when opened but not in the same league as 3 monts..

That looks amazing! Went and picked up the last 3 monts at my local place and got a funny look because I think I am the only person around here that buys it... (when I first saw it on my way out I walked back in and picked up 2)

Pretty much the best french beer out there, with a notable mention to the red kronenbourg

Well done guys - nice to see everyone getting full marks. And I even managed to get the country right this time

Dammit I've come on holiday and not taken a picture of this weeks beer.

Wonder if I'll find any Geuze beers in Berlin?
