Best beer I have ever had was St. Bernardus abt 12 . I also Like Delirium Tremens. I haven't had a Belgian beer I didn't like.
The higher the alcoholic content the better the taste generalllllly..or is it you remember the effect rather than the taste?

@xris,
As a rebel youth, lol, it was all about the Volume of alcohol. Steel Reserve was the best. something like 8%. Taste wasnt our concern. A couple years later and I prefer tastier drinks over heavier buzz or even aquiring certain types of buzzes. I enjoy mixed drinks now. White Russians are my favorite in the summer.

If it was simply for the effect, I would have just got some hard liquor. I don't really like to get drunk using beer; too much liquid sitting in your stomach and then in your bladder:Not-Impressed:.

Beer for me is a social drink,i get bladdered with my friends and family on occassions, it has a community effect.Life is so much more understandable slightly intoxicated.Just beware of a drunk who does not look happy, grrrrr.

@Leonard,
To Zetetic 11235 (This kind of threads grow like h...):

Because belgian beer is simply the best! From subjective taste to objective statement is always a huge jump, but not when it concerns belgian beer. Belgium: small in size but big in beer. Ouf, I need a drink now...

@Leonard,
But not only that, Didymos...not only that. Belgians are also renown for their chocolate, pommes frietes, and most especially waffles. Mmmm... let go of my Belgian eggo. I tried a lambic beer a while ago and I didnt really care for it, was kinda sour. Although, the alcholic content of Belgian beer is a lot higher than other beers. And from what I have just recently learned, there are over 500 Belgian brands of Beer.

@Leonard,
Of the 2-3 times i've driven through Belgium, i've had a few of their very fine drinks. If I could remember the name, I'd have to say that one of them was the tastiest i've ever had, and it had a fairly high alcohol content. I don't drink for the effect, I mostly drink when I'm at a restaurant that serves beer or at a party. I also prefer lagers only because I like the nice, bitter taste.

This little documentary on an interesting cultural phenomenon. Image quality is low but it's informative and correct. I said it before and I will say it again. Belgium: small in size, big in beer! Santee!

Mmmm...I have been enjoying some excellent imperial stouts and double IPA's lately, thanks to living in good old Wisconsin.

I used to enjoy New Glarus quite a bit, when I lived in Madison. Nothing like enjoying a fresh pitcher of spotted cow right in the student union!
