I don’t want to talk about all these beers since they’re so popular and readily available, but I’ll mention them because they’re all pretty impressive:

Chimay Cinq Cents, Grande Réserve, and Première. De Koninck. Maredsous 8 and 10. North Coast Pranqster. Rogue Festive Ale. Stoudt Triple.

Harpoon: http://www.harpoonbrewery.com

Tripel very disappointing. I wonder if it had gotten stale or something? Not good.

They of course, have many very good beers.

Framboise Lambic basically a sparkling sweet raspberry malt liquor, but damned tasty.

Rochefort 6 and 8 I don’t really remember beyond liking them.

Westmalle Dubbel and Tripel I like both quite well, but the Dubbel is my favorite.

Sixpoint http://www.sixpointcraftales.com

all surprisingly good from another brewer in Brooklyn.

Belgian IPA not as good as Houblon Chouffe, but still interesting and fun.

Express: nice malty alcohol concoction

Grand Crue (cask). mmm. sweet and strong
