BBT 2010 - d'Achouffe

This was the big disappointment of the trip. Disappointment is the wrong word but after visiting 4 small breweries this gigantic complex felt like an abomination to mother earth. What just some days ago should have been interesting was now just like visiting a factory. Sure, the guide was good and kind to us speaking English a little even if the tour we went with were in Dutch and everything was professional. But seriously, how interesting is that?
The worst part of it was the tasting afterwards. We were led to some kind of smokey local bar playing this terrible song. We drank up and left for the long trip back to Antwerp.Mc Chouffe
Belgium
ABV: 8%
Rating: 2
A very mild and quite tasteless beer. Dull.














Chouffe Houblon Dobbelen IPA Triple
Belgium
ABV: 9%
Rating: 4
Tastes surprisingly much like a good IPA. Alcohol well hidden and not much of the Belgian style showing.













La Chouffe

Belgium
ABV: 8%
Rating: 3
A pleasant fruity standard Belgian ale. Nothing special.
