I know that gentlemen prefer blond, but I prefer the dark (double) trappist and abbey beers, as opposed to the blond (triple) ones.
Hear, hear! Tripel Karmeliet is an excellent beer (I even have a glass for it), but I'll choose a Westmalle Dubbel or a Westvleteren 8 (or Westvleteren 12 Quad!) over it any day. And while not a trappist, one of my favorite Belgian standbys is always a Corsendonk Pater. But of course there's plenty of love for all kinds!
