You just named a couple of my go-to’s in Leffe brown and Paulaner Salvatore! I’ve never had the Grimbergen, but I know I’ve seen the Noel during Christmas, so I’ll have to pick one up soon. Thanks for your recommendations; we appear to have very similar tastes in beer
Brown ale is one of my favorite styles of beer in the colder months. Do you have access to American or English microbrews? I’ve tasted far better than Newcastle…
Far better choices than “Newci” browns
We’ve got a ton of danish micro breweries, heck even Carlsberg have a “micro” brewery.
Some times I’m having IPA’s to go with food.
On a cold winter night, try drinking an IPA, preferably a complex, slightly bitter, and higher-alcohol IPA while eating a dairy desert like cheesecake. Delicious.
Those 3 x 3 days can be short. I was doing them during my lunch break at work which is only 30 minutes. I’d superset the push and pull and be done in 20 minutes if I didn’t have anyone with me (there are a couple sergeants who lift and I get distracted talking to them).
Yep! I like to eat seasonally, and that includes beer. Along with seasonal intake, I particularly enjoy pairing food and beverages. Since I only drink a couple bottles of beer a week, they’re usually part of dessert. I’ve found IPAs pair well with dairy; the sweetness of lactose complements that beer’s piney bitterness.

Have caught the flu, fewer and shit, slept more than 10 hours this night. Was up 2 or 3 times to change t-shirt due to sweating.
Damnit. I hate being sick. Bad decision to train yesterday.
Trial and error. I didn’t start drinking beer til I was 30 and only one bottle every few days or so. I like to relish my beer instead of guzzling y’know?
Here’s another combo that sounds nasty but tastes delicious:
If you’re into hot chocolate in the winter (or any time) make some hot chocolate, a big ol’ mug, and drink a tasty amber ale or nut brown.

Thanks guys the one that suffers the most might be the missus.
She’ll have to listen to my moaning and suffering.
It’s evening over here and I’m feeling a bit better than yesterday, night and morning.
But certainly no lifting tomorrow
I respect the hell out of that. Whenever I drink a beer, I feel compelled to drink 8. That being said, I’m drinking the piss water variety–Busch lights, coors lights, bud lights, etc. I love them, but the point of drinking those is to get drunk!
I’m looking forward to the point in my life when I can appreciate the beer for its taste and not just its alcohol content.
@mortdk feel better man, I’m sorry you have to deal with this flu right now. On the bright side, this could be good for you in the long run. Taking a little unplanned time off is very rarely a bad thing from what I’ve seen!
