Subject: [Leica] Photoshop purchase. question...

Absolutely. I have two crates of empty Westvleteren bottles in my garage 
awaiting a return trip to the Abbey...but I understand they have changed the 
sales procedure fairly recently. But the 12  is certainly the king of 
Trappist beers, one of the finest beers of all. Glorious stuff.

If you ever can taste it, try a Westvleteren.
