Finest Belgian Beers – The beer connection:
Hmm where to start? Manufactum offers Belgian Trappist beers since years so I´ve heard what great beers they are supposed to brew there. When Maria´s parents visited Belgium some years ago, I told them to buy some “samples” there. They loved the beer there and I loved the samples they brought with them.

Via be-cause blog I got in contact with Fred from Belgium he shares an obsession for straight razors and beer as well. So some time ago I´ve sent him some samples of the famous Bavarian Unertl Weizen/Weißbier. He returned the favour today with a wonderful selection of the finest belgian beers. Look at the bottles and the champagne style corks. Check the minimum durability of one beer of 2031! (It won´t  make it!) Man they take bottling quite serious and I have no doubt I won´t be disappointed with the content either. They will have to rest for some days to relax after that bumpy journey via DPD but as hard as it is to wait, they will get their time for the great belgian beer tasting. Thanks Fred!

Fred´s choice was:
– Trappist Orval
– St. Bernardus Abt
– Gueuze Boon Mariage Parfait
– Girardin Kriek
– Rodenbach Grand Cru

I was a bit jealous when Eric posted the images from his parcel he got from Japan today, but when I came home from work there was one for me as well.

Some weeks ago Chris from Damn Yak asked me if I´m interested in a deadstock pair of boots, made in Canada.  Before that mail I promised not to buy any more shoes/boots for a while. But his offer was more like a generous gift so I had to have them. Even they were labeled half a size too small I took them.

If they will be abused for work or have an easy life will be decided within the next weeks by wearing them in.

Chris, thanks a lot for the boots and the nice postcard. Even that we never met in person I know we would have a great time. Let´s see it might happen either in Canada or in Europe.

He made me this pouch a while a ago and brought my attention to the great swiss army backpacks.

Check his website – he is definitely one of the good ones!
