Ooof, is that 12 euro a (small) bottle?

Sounds like a great excuse for a little road trip Tony, go get stocked up for a while 🙂

Just get in your car and go to Belgium. That's the easiest, and cheapest, way.

Missed out when we were over there in August, no slots left. 🙁

The price is crazy unless you go buy it yourself at source :(. It's good but I'm not sure it's that good

Only place I've ever seen it is £16 a bottle in North Bar in Leeds.

St. Bernardus Abt. 12 is almost identical and can be had over here for around £3.50 a bottle from a specialist beer retailer.

While we're here, anyone know a good source of Negra Modelo?

I wouldn't be surprised if my local off licence has it but that's in Cardiff.

I know it's meant to be but I don't find it so

Don't forget that you need to phone up and arrange a slot in advance. As far as I can see it's two crates/car and 40EUR a crate of 24
