Day 296: October 23, 2015
Diary entry:
Ok, I spoke too soon.
After a good day at work, finalizing some topics on the other projects and preparing what I need to bring with me on the trip, I get home and get a call that there’s still questions on the upcoming trip. So what should have been a relaxed weekend is now full of stressful uncertainty still. Ah well, c’est la vie.
At least I know that everything is in order, and all I need to do is convince some people that it really is necessary, and not just a boondoggle or something better suited to be done here in the HQ. All logic is on my side, so just have to hope common sense prevails.
The Beer:
Name: Mooi & Meedogenloos
Style: Belgian Quad
Producer: Brouwerij De Molen
Alcohol content: 10.2%
Bottle size: 0.33 l
Purchased from: De Hopduvel in Ghent, Belgium
Mooi & Meedogenloos by Brouwerij De Molen. Some chocolate aroma. Fairly strong alcohol bite. A little fruity. Decent. But not knocking my socks off.
Commercial Description (Untappd):
Mooi & Meedogenloos combines both Belgian style Quadruple and Imperial Stout. Sweet and spicy like the first but roasted and full bodied like the second. Flavor indication: chocolate, plums, brown sugar. Translates as Beautiful & Ruthless.
