The beer I had was cracking. Though I had a couple of bottles when I got home, and started to wonder why I was feeling pretty tipsy. After looking at the label a few hours later I understood why - it's bloody 10%.

I'm also voting that Hank Marvin gets an honourary +1 bonus point.

LOL yeah it's very easy to forget the strength. Yesterday I sat outside enjoying the sun and drank my 4 Leffe Blonde (once again Ahleckz another great tip of yours), 6.6% they are but such a rich flavour! Simply delicious beer and Asda stock them in a nice 4 pack :)
 
Ahleckz said:
That even says it's made in the UK. There is nothing Belgian about Stella anymore. It doesn't overly bother me but I wouldn't call a beer made in the UK, owned by Americans, Belgian.

'Stella Artois is brewed in Belgium (both in the plants of Leuven and Jupille) and the United Kingdom'

No one entered, if they had it would have counted. Guinness is also brewed in parts of Africa but it's still classed as an Irish beer. This can apply to lots of different lagers/ ales/ stouts, don't go getting all wound up matey.
 
Now getting back on track did you like my fizzy looking Leffe? :D I'll say it again, superb beer. Once I opened it, poured it into the glass and watched a lovely rich deep frothy head form I couldn't resist savouring it even before it had settled. Delicious!

Woop, another 3 pointer was a bit worried there tho when i saw some others from the same brewery! Very jealous of Spuj1988, Frulli is delicious! This ones not bad, at 8% its pretty stong nice and tasty tho, very sharp to start with and mellows out, not as nice as last weeks mind.

Only one I'm jealous of is Hank_Marvin :D

Actually I'd gladly try any of the beers on offer tonight :)

I think I'm just being a bit of an elitist ass. I'm sorry.

On topic - No idea what the hell I'm going to do for France! I can't even think of a good beer from that place! :o

Great choice on the leffe DJ. :D You really must try and get some Leffe 9! Do you like my glass? ;)

lol no worries mate ;)

Great choice is down to you, you've tipped it many a time. Can't say I've seen any other Leffe about but I'll keep my eyes out for them, until then I'll be more than happy to drink this :) I honestly thought others would have had it, albeit wasn't my first choice as I couldn't get the one I was after from M&S :(

Yes nice glass indeed, mine was an old red wine glass but it served it's purpose well :)


Oops link didn't show beer, it was the Belgian Wheat beer not the Cherry wheat beer one though.

You won't find Leffe 9 in the shops, I haven't actually seen it online either. But if you're ever in France/Belgium then you'll get it. :D

You love your M&S booze, I really must nip in there one day and check out what they have to offer. I've only ever bought wine from them.

Leffe really is very nice, haven't had it in a while. Might buy a few tomorrow. My Dad stole the glass from a bar in Belgium a couple of years ago. Legend! :D

M&S have some cracking beers / ciders. I've reviewed (albeit not greatly) in the Now Drinking thread a few times. Always worth a look ;) Oh and you can order online too though I'm not sure if they do a mixed cases :(
 
Oh and forgot to say cheers everybody for making the effort again this week, and well done the new people who have not only joined late but also embraced the competition as keenly as us :D

Denmark, England, Finland.


My lack of entries so far has been due to an unexpected extreme lack of finances. I'll join in as soon as my situation changes

OK mate that's not a problem as your space will be kept open for you :) As for voting cheers though it's been decided as Denmark, England and France. Your Finland was never going to catch France as it had 12 votes to your 5.
Hope your circumstances in the money dept. change for the better but fear not as the leaders are only on 6 points to date :)
