What were the best ones?

The best ones were:

Dupont Avec les Bon Vieux - This was a strong Saison. It tastes pretty yeasty and had a pretty strong taste.

Sint Bernardus Abt 12 - no commentary necessary

Hercule - a big, coffee-y stout. I used to hate stouts until I realized that all stouts don't taste like Guinness.

Rulle Triple - I really like Triples

Gueuze Girardin - This is such a unique tasting beer. I will try to bring some to Bloomington.

Oerbier - This is a Belgian brown ale with great fruity and yeasty tastes.
