If the gathering ends up being on Feb 14th, anyone feels like going to the Sabaton show on the 13th in Antwerp and do a small pre-gathering tasting after the show? I guess it’s up to Ben to agree on it.

Maybe just less beer? Last time the amount of bottles was insane.

I only hope we change the bottle pouring method so we don’t have folks opening bottle after bottle just to tick and end up draining liters upon liters of good beers the next morning. Unless a beer is just horrible, I see no reasons to leave an expensive bottle with 30cl of beer in it. Just remember that every beer does not have to be drunk that night.




At the last ZZT we had a system that everybody seemed to like. We went quick through ticks, then opened one of the beers the was expected to be very good, and continued this the entire night. We didn’t check ABV nor style. Seemed to work.

You clearly have not been to the first versions if you call that insane

Btw, is there any chance the new Stille Nacht Reserva can make an appearance?

Have not been indeed, but still if I hear stories about Dark Lord being french pressed. Or Hommage just being left over, that’s a shame and should not be what a RBG is about.

I highly doubt a drop of any of those two beers was left.

French press is a cool act en zeker op een Dark Lord.
Het kan alleen maar beter.
