Chimay is a good one, same as Westmalle.
My personal favorite brewery/monistary though is Trappist Roachford.
And I prefer tripples to doubles. (Roachford even has a quadruppel. Yum! )

For those who're clueless; that has to do with the fermenting process. A double goes through two, a tripple through three, etc. The final fermenting takes place after the beer is bottled, so you always have to be carefull not to poor the yeast-depot into the glass, along with the good stuff.

Eh, why not.

1) I have done woodworking- all types- since age 15.
2) I like George Killian's Irish Red.
3) I am a huge fan of Yes, and have seen them in concert 11 times.
4) I live in an old house near the Flint River in Georgia.
5) I swim like an otter, and did cliff diving when I was younger- from as high as 90 feet.
6) I'm no good at running.
7) I have a BS in Applied Physics from Ga. Tech.
8) I was raised on a dairy farm near where I live now, and have forgotten more about cows than most people ever know, or want to.
9) I'm the only unbeliever in a large family.
10) I've smoked pot since 1974, and have no intention of ever quitting completely because I find it is medicinal for me.

I'm sorry Puck, but Jobar is my neighbor and I live in Griffin, forty miles south of Atlanta. However I saw your thread and I spend a lot of time in Panama City Beach and would love to meet you guys, if not this time then maybe next time.

I wish you were a neighbor of mine and Jobar's though. I've enjoyed reading your posts.

hmmm you too? that this happens to me as well Jobar. I am on a masters swim team come season however when it comes to running, I am pathetic. I participated in the Los Angeles marathon with a friend and I was already bitching about it after 1 mile of the 26 mile stint. Everyone beat me, I believe I came in either 11th or 16th from last place. Even some guy who was older than dirt kicked my ass and I felt as if every muscle ached for days! Give me a pool or an ocean anyday over a track...

10) I write articles about video games and equipment, specializing in connecting a video game console to a VGA monitor.

Southernhybrid, howdy. Ahhh, Griffin is close enough on a world wide basis, to be neighbors. If I remember right, a cousin lives in Griffin, know any drummers there?

Yeah, having ya'll for neighbors would be wonderful. Alas, someone's gotta hold down the fort here in the cotton patch. Sending you a PM.
