Did anybody laugh out loud or shake their head at the Budweiser commercial during the 3rd quarter last night?

I've drinking 3 Floyds 'Permanent Funeral', 'Blot Out the Sun', and 'Alpha Klaus' lately. All amazing options if you can get your hands on them.
FYI - Bells Hopslam is available as of yesterday. get your before its all gone!

If you ever find anything from Brasserie de la Senne, don't pass it up.
They're a relatively new craft beer brewery in Brussels, and everything they have is phenomenal. My personal favorites are Taras Boulba & Stouterik.
That said, I'm not sure how widely spread they are in the U.S., though I do know they've begun importing here.
I met the guys, and they are absolutely devoted to their craft.
Thanks for the tip. I go through Brussels a few times a year and Amsterdam quite a bit. I'll look out for those.
Looks like one can get off at the Midi station and walk a bit to get there. Thanks for the tip.
Yup, it's about a 30 minute walk (mostly uphill) to the neighborhood of St. Gilles where the original location stands. It would be faster to take the 3 tram from Midi to Albert and walk from there though.
I lived right around there last summer, so I know it well.
you just hit a homer! Nice selection indeed.
Thanks. My wife and I bring back a few cases whenever we drive back to Chicago (2x/year). It's a fun break to stop by the brewery and they usually have some great options.
I've got to say, Blot out the Sun is simply amazing. Very rich, but not over the top like some of their stouts. AK is always good, but this year it seemed to be even more even balanced than in past. Would recommend either.
And Permanent Funeral is just a crazy IPA (I've heard it referred to as an Imperial Zombie Dust). If IPAs didn't go bad so quickly I would definitely hold onto a couple of bottles.
Anicca is the last set of bombers we got. Much more like a hoppier Alpha King. Even balanced and a pleasure to drink.
And yes, we will be stocking up on Hopslam this week!
Stopped after work yesterday and to my surprise they had some Hopslam. Last year they had a real hard time getting it. At first the salesman only wanted to sell me one six pack, but I talked him into two!
