Beers Of The World

   I don't think I've found a Belgian ale that I didn't like; granted I like some more than others. This little number is definitely in my wheelhouse. It's a top-fermented brown with secondary fermentation in the bottle. Smooth with that chocolate/caramel malty mouth and a slightly bitter finish, it has a 7.5% alcohol content. Brewed by the Friart family since 1873 in the city of Le Roeulx, it comes in a 750ml bottle at $10.69 at BevMo. They also make a Reserve that comes in at 8.5% alcohol, and I'm checking to see if BM has that on my next visit. 4.5 on the Meter.
