Am I the only one that thought the Porter Baltique was pretty disgusting? The sour smell was probably what turned me off the most. I'd smell it every sip I took! If I swallowed quickly, there were pleasant flavours, but if I tried to "enjoy" the flavours, that unwanted sourness would come ...

I also have two La Terribles staring me down, but those can be saved for a while :p

I have tried Chimay Blue, but I have not tried Westy, or Rochefort. Rochefort is #1 on my beer searching list. I may take a trip to U.S. to buy some, ...
