A beer that is called Noël in Belgium, but named Winter Ale in the USA. However, about 20 years there was also an apparently now retired, completely different Val-Dieu Winter Ale available in the US that can lead to confusion. This beer is...
I’m a sucker for a commemorative or anniversary Belgian, so to buy this was a no brainer. High fluffy head but if I’m honest, a disappointingly light color. A lot of bitterness up from here. The beer at times almost feels hop forward which is of...
750 mL, corked & caged, Green's on Ponce, Atlanta, GA, USA, $6.95. A close look through the brown bottle reveals plenty of easily disturbed sediment. This settles quickly. Lively pour into the Duvel tulip with a good head that leaves some thin...

Part of a 3-bottle gift pack that included 11.2 oz bottles of this, the Brown and the Tripel and a Val-Dieu goblet for $11.99. Good value I thought. Very light, almost dare I say it, macro lager like appearance, with some fairly aggressive...
Additional notes 11/27/22 (pictured): From the date of the original notes, this must have been one of the very first beers that I purchased in Atlanta after the cap was popped. Interestingly, the exact same beer, from the exactly the same store, 18...
