I had the sam adams over the summer in the states. Very similar to la fin du monde.

Not a bad list at all. Mostly repeats, but as others have pointed out the Unibroue 17 is what I'm looking forward to most.

I was kind of hoping for an Orval gift pack for some reason. I also like the Innis and Gunn packs. Their beers have a definite unique flavour profile and I find it enjoyable to do a session of their varying beers.

The Orval giftpack would have been icing on the cake, with that lovely chalice of theirs. Maybe we´ll see it as a surprise addition. Last time Orval was here, it was selling like belgian waffles.

Speaking of glassware I got a Fullers pint from somebody, an absolutely lovely drinking glass for IPAs Porters Stouts... I never really used pints at home.

Great release, with a few usual duds.

Hopefully Mill St. has tinkered with the recipe alot, because for the past few years I found their bwine drain worthy. I would love to see Gulden Draak sold on its own instead of being chained to that six pack, which is okay but not great.


Really excited to see Unibrou, Maredsous, Chimay and St. Bernie´s. Wish they brought back Orval and Westmalle.

I've always wondered about St. Peter's...whenever I drink either that or the cream stout, I always find it under carbonated...is it supposed to be like that?

I seem to remember that they purposefully give their beers lower carbonation, I think to make it more cask-like.

Any idea on the cost of the 17?

For the gift packs, other than the obvious ones that say "with glass" any ideas which of the ones come with free stuff? I love free stuff.

I don't think any of the gift packs include 'free' stuff. For instance:

Duvel Twinpack with Glass = $10.95
2xDuvel = $6.00
Glass = $4.95

Fair enough, I could rephrase it bonus promotional items if that sounds better to you. Because along with actual free stuff I also love bonus promotional items.

Most of these come with glasses even if its not mentioned
