La Trappe Dubbel (Netherlands)
As you can see, another beer I had over Christmas which is only just finding its way on to these pages. When I poured this I did so much too quickly, and the foam threatened to flow all over my kitchen. So the first taste I got from this was of the head, which tasted like some weird honey cake. The actual beer part doesn't taste like cake. I've always wondered why the Belgians make great beer, and the Dutch make... well, Heineken. This beer proves that the Dutch can do it just as well.
Fuller's Golden Pride (England)
Fuller's claim on the label that this is their finest beer. And you know what? I think they may have a point. This is a great strong ale, a nice beer to beer to drink in the evening while watching your favourite detective series (Columbo, by the way). It definitely tastes strong, and a little bit boozy, so don't go drinking too much of it in a hurry.
