  1. I was probably a bit harsh. I mean I have drunk it but I just meant that it's not the best. Bass is alrright.

    John Smiths and Tetleys are also similar. Big brand brews that (I think)are exported. I like John Smith's Extra Smooth and Tetleys Smoothflow. But again they aren't as nice as the brews you will get in the pubs here.

    I like Guiness too and I've found Labatts and Budweiser to be alright. I guess I will just drink anything. :)

    Yuenling sounds Chinese LOL. I could only find the Group A beers on that site. :(

    Sounds Swedish to me: http://omacl.org/Heimskringla/

  2. What I can't get is when I order a Sam Adams, or other quality beer, sometimes I don't get a glass unless I ask for it. Beer is like a woman. You don't get the whole experience with your tongue.

  3. I can see where some of the bier brewed with richer flavors might be best served cool. But I am a wus on those stout beers and after a hot summer day working in the yard a icy cold lager is hits the spot for me.

    I'm not talking about stout beer. I'm talking about hefeweizen. Not something you drink to loose weight, but it's not syrupy like Guinnese.

  4. Summertime is here. Perfect weather for an icy cold one. :beer:

    Been drinking BL Golden Wheat lately.

    For a light beer it's not to bad. Brewed with coriander and citrus peel.

    I have come to realize that some German bier is best served cool, not ice-cold. If it's too cold some of the character is suppressed. I was always told that when living in Germany, but I never put it to the test because I never drank the bier ice-cold.

  5. I tried Pike Pale Heirloom Amber Ale tonight. It's pretty good. Certainly had no trouble finishing it. But it's lacking something the Sam Adams has. Some subtle nose-tickler.

  6. The specialty store ran out of Julius Echter Hefe-Weissbier Dunkel:

    So I tried Ayinger Ur-Weisse:

    My Gods! At $3.25 a bottle, it better be good!
