From last winter ..

Found one bottle of ommegang adoration at the "paces bottle shop" nearby and thought it is way too early to start seeing this years brews.

Confirmed with the storekeeper - a little aged bottle from last year - perfect !

Really liked it. No need to worry about food pairings. Just the beer makes a great dinner :)
