cask night

last week's cask at the yaletown was the downtown brown ale
dry-hopped with uk goldings!
deeeeelicious!

last week also saw us get to taste imported beers
ryan brought back two from his trip to winnipeg

one, from half pints, tasted exactly like apple crumble!
he also traded a growler of yaletown with the half pints guys for a bottle out of their cellar collection
the 3 musketeers grand cuvee doppelbock
holy divinely fabulously delicious batman!

no one got the chocolate from this one at first
but after we visited a couple of other beers and revisited it
everyone got the chocolate notes
funny...

iain then raided his cellar and produced a couple of belgians for us

i translate this one as ringing bell
i do not speak flemish or any related language, so i'm totally making it up!
and i'm having too much fun with my invented translation to look up what it actually means

not all of us are belgian fans
(yay, so nice to have company on that one!)
but we all agreed that these two were darned drinkable
happy times!

and i'll be making the trek there again for more cask goodness tonight - yay!!!!!!!!
