Beer Discoveries
Following yesterday’s wedding, we did what most British do when they have any free time: head to the local pub and drink beer. This gave us the opportunity to try some new varieties. The best discovery was Kronenbourg Blanc, a white beer originally launched in 2004. It is not a wheat beer, but tastes good nonetheless and takes advantage of the Head Injection Tap system and the O-ring cooling system, which pours the beer at 3°C. We also tried the Westmalle Dubbel, which is brewed by the Abbey of Westmalle, one of only six Trappist breweries in the world. It’s slightly lighter than Chimay, yet boasts similar falvors. Very nice! Finally, we got a sip of Fruli, a strawberry flavored beer from Van Diest Brewery. It’s a little bit sweet for my taste, but because it is technically a white beer, it should be quite refreshing on a hot day. A hot day it was not, so I closed my tab with a pint of Stella Artois.
