I'm sensing a theme with the Belgian Beers . . .
If you like Ommengang and Westvleteren, give St. Bernardus ABT 12 a try. I think Westvleteren scored a 100 on BA and St. Bernardus scored a 99.
P-easy, Chimay Blue is probably one of my favorite belgians. We tried replicating it not too long ago. Came close but not quite there. Those monks have fine honed their craft over the last 300-400 years.
In the Belgian spirit, give Duvel, Gulden Draak and Westmalle. While brewing belgians we needed "inspiration" and really like those 3.

Have had all those you mentioned, toondawg, and liked every single one. The westmalle triple was the first "heavy" beer I ever truly enjoyed. I used to buy it by the case. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />

I will keep an eye out for them. And yes, I have a thing for Belgian brews. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Is that Pyraat rum? That stuff is tasty. Also like Appleton XO and Ron Metusalem (sp?) 18 year.

Interesting. I like belgians and I like saisons but I've never heard of that before. What did you think? Notes? I'll be at the local LQ in the next 3 days looking for it.
