[@eddavanleemputten9232]

My first thought was “Dayum! SIX in one session?????” Kudos to you that you made it to the end, it’s quite a feat. Belgian beers that aren’t pilseners are strong. I’ve lost count of the non-Belgians I’ve met or organised an outing for who’ve buckled at less. It’s not just the ABV (alcohol by volume) but how you drink them and if you do so on an empty stomach. I’m a Belgian and I’ve also lost count of how many non-Belgians are surprised that a skinny woman like me can happily down several high-ABV beers without batting an eyelid and without displaying any effects. The trick is to lay a foundation by eating something, and to drink it slowly. A bit of advice for future tastings: 1) get a glass for each beer you plan on tasting 2) get a glass of water and some bread to cleanse your palate between tastings 3) take your time 4) pour at least 3 beers, preferably all of them and then go from one to the other 5) you don’t need to pour the full bottle About the art of pouring: 1) make sure there is no trace of grease on the glasses 2) always pour in a WET glass (rinsed in cold water) 3) tilt the glass as much as possible during the pour, righting it only when you want to create the head (the foam). That’s just a smidge more than the thickness of the head you want. When you do, right your glass and pour a bit more aggressively. Perfect head every time regardless of the beer. Edit: so happy you like Belgian beers! The bitterness comes largely from the hops. The colour is mostly from the malt, from caramelised sugars. So if you don’t really care for bitterness, don’t go by colour. Belgian beers are known for being very smooth and balanced. Balance of flavours is the trick for a beer being pleasant (for any alcoholic beverage, for that matter). You need a balance between bitterness, acidity and sweetness. Some will include alcohol in that because let’s face it, alcohol IS a flavour. One of the flavours needs to he dominant and the others need to carry that flavour and round it out. I’m not a beer brewer but for over 30 years I’ve been making my own meads, ciders and fruit wines. The same concept applies. Because Belgian beers are so smooth and balanced with next to no alcohol burn, they’re known to be so treacherous. They go down easily and then the alcohol hits you. I hope you didn’t get too bad of a hangover because man… you had a lot when you filmed this tasting.

[@dj_genrefluid]

wanted to add an extra tip to your 'about the art of pouring' : you want to pour slow enough so that there's a constant flow of air goin' back in the bottle and it doesn't go like gluckgluckgluck (this prevents getting too much foam at the start of pouring)

[@eddavanleemputten9232]

@@dj_genrefluid - True! I do that without thinking…

[@Dvids85]

Never pour in a wet glass. That's the worst thing you can do actually. The foam will stay much longer in a nice dry glass.

[@duudsuufd]

@@Dvids85 But some beers have a lot of foam, while pouring with the same speed and the same angle. And if you had at least four of them, it is not that easy to limit the foam. A dry glass is good for tasting, but if you have 'no limit' (being at home before going to sleep) it is better to rinse your glass in between. At some moment you can't control the foam anymore.

[@Dvids85]

@@duudsuufd I know what you mean. But you can control the foam with every beer. I've had around 500 different ones and never had trouble with too much foam. Take a Duvel for example. It's a really foamy beer. You can literally pour it like water if you know what you're doing.

i would sugest,after half the bottle is in the glas,turn the bottle in a few circles and put the rest in the glas..INCLUDING the yeast.

I always drink it completely. When the beer bottle is almost empty, I drop the last on the foam. There are vitamins B in it, but if you are not used to that yeast, you will feel the need to go to the restroom... I would say it stimulates the digestive system. For someone who has a lot of 'exercise' in it, it is no problem at all.

For your information, in the bottom of the bottle of a Belgian beer you have yeast beer, who are very beneficial of the intestinal transit. So it is not true to say that you can be seek if you drink it. This is the otherwise. And more over it gave you an additional interesting taste. For the Orval we usually drink it not cold but at a normal temperature. A friend from Belgium.

[@Top_Lad]

Nice tasting, the yeast in the bottle is perfectly safe to drink and actually contains a ton of vitamins and minerals! These beers get their carbonation and do their fermentation in bottle like Champagne sparkling wine (called Méthode Traditionnelle), it definitely adds to the flavor in my opinion and we Belgians generally drink it, try it out some day, adds a rich texture and body to the beer, cheers!

[@woutervanbelleghem8676]

considering Belgian beers : dark doesn't mean "heavy". But if you're drinking all six one after another, you'll definately feel it, lol...

Well done, Charlie! I used to work in a brewery just outside Amsterdam (for connoisseurs: De 7 Deugden). The pay was lousy but the beer was free. Sometimes we had to taste a new brew on Monday morning. As part of the job. 😊 We had some really good special beers but you made a great choice: any beer can come only second to the Belgian beers. A friend of mine lives in Roeselare, near the famous Belgian brewery of Rodenbach. He takes me to his local bar and out of politeness he and his friends speak Flemish/Dutch. After a few beers they switch to their local accent and I'm left clueless. But can't be bothered after a couple of them local bad boys from their local brewery. 🥳🤪 When you come to live in the Netherlands, I'll take you down there. But not by car.

Hope the hangover was not too bad. :-) Take care - Looked up info for you on the Westmalle website about the tripel and translate it for you: The Tripel van Westmalle is a clear, golden yellow Trappist beer of 9.5°. The slow brewing process and secondary fermentation in the bottle yield a complex beer, with a fruity aroma of ripe banana and a nice, nuanced hop nose. The soft and creamy taste, with a bitter touch carried by the fruit aroma, has a lot of finesse and elegance. Enjoy the wonderfully long and dry aftertaste.

Great how you manage these pretty heavy beers so well. As a Dutchman, I certainly enjoy a beer, especially a Belgian one. The dubbels and tripels are quite strong, but definitely worth it. Awesome that you captured this in a KZbin video. If you ever come to Europe, you’re welcome to visit Ghent in Belgium where you’ll definitely enjoy the delicious Belgian beer. But, of course, all of Europe has its own unique and interesting beers. I hope that if you come, there's still something left of the beautiful Europe that is now being attacked from the east by a mafia boss and a sick regime. But rest assured... the beers remain worth it. Welcome to beautiful Europe.

Well done man! Orval is my absolute favourite beer and I still struggle to pour it right, especially if I don’t have the right glass 😅 Many Belgians will tell you that drinking a beer with the wrong glass is evil and changes the taste… As a Belgian, I am definitely a bit picky with my glasses 🤓 Btw, yes, Chimay is a Walloon beer (from the French-speaking part), and so are Orval and Rochefort… Westmalle is Flemish (Dutch-speaking part). Belgium can sometimes be very divided between the different language communities, but something we definitely have in common is beer! Amazing ones on all sides… 😂

About the"cheers", we do the same here in Belgium, but then you have to look each other in the eye

Dang, Charlie, you shouldn't be drinking those beers like lemonade, you know? Unlike the horse piss that US breweries produce, these are hard hitting beers! You're gonna be so wasted at the end of those 6 bottles!

I'd say Westvleteren would be a nice step up :-)

I don't think he would have been able to finish the video if he had a Westvleteren 12 on top of the 6 other beers.
