This beer kicks ass!
To celebrate the good news about DeLie and Frisk, I chose a French ale...La Choulette brewery's Les Sans Culottes. It just seemed apropos to today's events. Viva la révolution !

It's kind of fruity...a little like champagne, but much more robust.

Cheers! :toast:

9. Les Sans Culottes played a prominent role in the French Revolution
And since the thugs hate France so much, it seemed like the perfect choice. :toast:

10. Is it French or Belgian?
Belgium has some of the best beers in the world. I don't know if I've ever had French beer. Sounds interesting, though!

11. French, but very close to the Belgian border...
The texture and complexity are in the same mode as the Belgians I've tried. Each is unique, of course, but all are so rich and interesting. You'd love this if you love Belgian brews!
