1. 2SP The Russi+n Lovely very dark, chocolate and coffee. Beer love Stefan
2. 3 Fonteinen Oude Kriekenlambik Amy loves, bc she loves sour and funk. Not surprisingly, Stefan winces when he drinks it. Beer love Stefan
3. Allagash Coolship Resurgam A classic Geuze in everything but name! Balanced and very tasty. Beer love Stefan
4. Amaro Nonino One of our favorite amaros, clean drinking and flavorful without being too much. Amaro/Aperitif/Vermouth love Stefan
5. Au Baron Cuvée des Jonquilles Very tasty, bit of a light malty taste. Drifts into Love but could be decent. More so here because it’s a great representation of a farmhouse ale. Beer love Stefan
6. Barrique Brewing & Blending Equal Parts Just a tasty pilsner!!! Beer love Stefan
7. Blaugies La Vermontoise I love it; Stef thinks it’s middling. We generally don’t like Hill Farmstead, but maybe I love it because it’s a collab between them and a Belgian brewery. A lighter tasting Hill Farmstead. Beer love Amy
8. Bluecoat Gin love Stefan
9. Bols Genever Gin love Stefan
10. Boon Framboise Very light rasberry beer - refreshing in summer Beer love Stefan
11. Boon Geuze Selection Tasty lambic. Get when you can. 8/1/26 - tasty as usual, but it is a keg fermented gueze so not quite as amazing as bottle conditioned. Tasty is a good classification. Beer love Stefan
12. Boon Oude Schaarbeekse Kriek Had in February 2022 at Monks cafe with Emma & Amy. Dark and purple but bright, really good. Sour finish. Beer love Stefan
13. Brana Ilori “les jonquilles” Irouleguy 2021 Apparently nice whites also come out of this this French Basque region! Will need to try another bottle to get tasting notes. Wine love Amy
14. Brasserie Dubuisson Scaldis Noel Super tasty full bodied and somewhat dark. Has some bitterness. Beer love Stefan
15. Brasserie Dupont Saison Tasty and bright saison from Monk’s cafe Always a good standard beer, not too high in ABV. Still tasty Beer love Stefan

17. Chimay Dorée Very clean ale that drinks like a pils Good as always! Beer love Stefan

20. Colonel E.H. Taylor Whiskey love Stefan
21. Corsendonk Christmas Ale Medium- to full-bodied, amber, as per Tom Peters: chocolate, coffee, and vanilla bean on the finish. Just delish! Beer love Stefan

30. Frapin The heart of good old-fashioned Sazerac, what we might call an opinionated Sazerac. Absinthe makes a cocktail, but this is a really fine companion. Unusual Pitoniak respect very tasty smooth cognacy? And if you don’t know what that means you never will. Final testament, SFL. Cognac love Stefan

32. Geuze Mariage Parfait Very tasty 750ml we had in Ghent Beer love Stefan
33. Giffard Banane du Bresil Liqueur You like banana? Yes. Liquor with a clean banana flavor, no chemical aftertaste. Makes on OK negroni, explore. Mezcal and a different amaro? Would be best in a tiki drink. Amaro Aperitif Vermouth love Stefan
