Yesterday I tried three different beers from "Ödmans" at the pub brewery "Pannrummet".

At home different home brewed and also a special beer from Närke Kulturbryggeri, a mix from an ale and a barley wine. That's an experimental beer that will never reach the shelves.

Finished at about 2 this morning with a Meantime Coffee.

Well, here I go with: La Trappe Bockbier

Details about La Trappe.
La Trappe is the Netherlands ONLY Trappist beer*. (although I doubt it as it's been taken over by Bavaria (nothing to do with the German "land"), but it's still brewed inside a monestary, and run by its brothers. They only started with "enkel" (single), double, triple, and ...... QUADRUPLE! So far, it is/was the only trappist that brewed both "enkel" as "quadruppel", now Bavaria has taken over its "commercial" site, but the beer is still brewed in the "abdij van Koningshoeven" near Tilburg (Duch-Belgian border)

Officially Bockbier is a fall/automn beer, but that doesn't stop me to drink it in spring. There are also some spring bocks (nee, geen springbokken :D), but it's my opinion that you can keep a good fall bock long and its taste will only get better.

But to La Trappe Bockbier. it's a beer with 7% alc. VOL. and it has a nice clear view. (although I'm drinking it out of a bottle, so I can't really see if it's amber or real clear). It's not too strong, but has the flavour of a good bock. There is no real after taste (?).

I like it and it's a real tasty beer.

*) Trappist beers are:
  1. Westvleteren (B)
  2. Westmalle (B)
  3. Orval (B)
  4. Chimay (B)
  5. Rochefort (B)
  6. Achel (B)
  7. La Trappe (NL)

Drinking a "low" alcohol beer at 3.5%, from a 50 cl bottle.

Åbro Bryggmästarens Mörka Lager.

Pretty thin and boring, I did try the stronger one a while back and remember that as quite nice.

Had a beer after lunch with mom today.

I had a Belgian called Straffe Hendrik Blond.

Mom had a Dom Kölsch from Germany which I sampled also of course.
