As promised:
It looks small, but that's because the speaker next to it is quite huge.
It's a 0.75 liter bottle that I got as part of a present after a TT I did last year.
It's apparently a limited edition for Chimay's 150th birthday

Remember when DFH used to bottle the 90-minute in a 750ml? It really was better than the 12oz bottles. Still a damn good beer though. Also that bottle had the best picture I've ever seen on a beer label.

I love good beer, but unfortunately I tend to have a more difficult time burning off those empty calories and carbs at this age in my life. Now I pretty much enjoy only good scotch whisky.

Doesn't matter. Don't want to be associated with the dbags that they're marketing to. It's like crotch rockets - performance and aesthetics are drool worthy but it's just not worth being a dbag by association - there are other options.

By your logic, you shouldn't drink fine scotch or drive a Cadillac because of some perceived association of whom they're marketing to. Good grief, you don't have to associate with anybody to enjoy a product.

Genetics have failed me
I live about 3 miles away from 3 Floyds and about 1 mile away from this: https://www.beergeekspub.com and both are excellent places to enjoy some nice brews.
Cane & Abel from 2 Brothers is in my fridge and a few bombers from 3 Floyds, couple of Stone brews, Franziskaner Dunkel and New Holland in the wine cooler. I need to stack up on Aventinus as I ran out.
The one problem with those beverages is the empty calories, but hey, it's better than snorting coke.

Yeah, but the uptick in sales would just make them think that it's a good idea to parade more dbags across our TV screens.

Bought an assortment of beers today for the Superbowl party:
Chimay red lable - holy hell is this stuff expensive. $12 per bottle are Bevmo, but found it for $9 at Trafer Joes.
Rare Vos - $8 at Bevmo - Love this stuff.
Firestone DBA - Heard good stuff about it. Thought I'd give it a try.
Two bottles of Fullers 1845 - Yum!
Boatswain - no idea, on sale for $1.99 at Trader Joe's

Recently I've gone through a lot of IPAs, pale ales and pilsners.
But now I'm back to drinking Mexican beers.

Living in Belgium for almost a year now, I have become twice the beer snob than before, and that was hard to do in the first place...
My wife, the amazing woman that she is bought me a gift basket from a brewery tour she went to, it had the best brown and pils I have ever had.
Cant find a pick of the anchor pills, but here is one of the brown... classic is right.

My theory is that this thread comes around, is consumed for a while, then it passes out, only to be poked into alertness again after the hangover wears off.
Carry on.
