Sufficient ma...

Re: Surprisingly good beer from TBS
St Ambroise Pale Ale (with the gold label) was one of my first beer loves that helped get me away from macros as it had a unique taste - nothing at all like the pale ales we have today.

To his credit he's got a lot of breweries participating this year and releasing tripels specfically for the occasion. It's probably easiest just to link the website, he's got a pretty exhaustive li...
