3 Monts golden ale bottle

its got like an inverted steel pipe over the top of the cork...how the fuck do you open this shit?

Smash the neck on a countertop and try not to cut y'self drinking it.

surely someone can give me a real answer in here.

the cork is in the bottle but its wedged into it by a steel piece on the top....i dont know how im sposed to remove this.

Obviously God does not want you to drink it, so leave it be

fuck that its gettin drank....i did not just finish a 12 hour shift for this bullshit. i want some golden ale dammit

fuckin took a pair of pliers to it and it is now sitting nicely in my duff beer mug.

god i love beers that are yeasty as fuck, but is all the slow evaporating foam necessary? i mean, i thought i knew how to pour drinks until i pour a chimay or three philosophers

PS this is delicious....very strong alcohol aftertaste though

High maintenance bottle...a staple over the cork that's slightly annoying, then it needed a corkscrew. 12-18 printed on the cork, and "order 3043" lasered on the back label. Who knows how old this is...it's been at my favorite shop for awhile.

Pours with a finger of foam, maintains a thin skim. Retention is pretty good, despite the limpness of the head without lace. Reddish orange with strong carbonation. Looks more like an Oktoberfest than a BdG. Light banana or green pear aroma, it's fairly muted, nothing remotely farmhouse about it really. Strong carb and astringency is the first thing I notice, with a nice pear/banana notes and nuttiness at the end. Some dry cider characteristics, without any apple sweetness. Alcohol is too apparent. The more I drink it seems more like a bastard Duvel clone, that retains the heartiness of a Märzen.

At $10 a bottle, i'd choose Jolly Pumpkin over this every time.

how much % alcohol is it?

jesus, just nudge the metal thing around a bit with your fingers and it'll come off. same goes for the cork, just wedge it around a bit and it'll pop, no need to go high tech

i like it a lot, even tho it's kinda sweet and crude it's good for the quaffin. it's a steal too, at around 3 USD for a 750ml here.

the same brewer also makes a fantastic brown ale called Gavroche
