i haven't had many foreign beers but i can tell you that u.s. beers suck.


This is my favorite Mexican beer.

You guys are seriously fucked if you don't think Australia make the best beers. Geeeeez. It's a known fact.

I've spent a little time considering my response to this, and I've decided upon:

Bollocks. Complete and total bollocks.

Oddbins sell some of the best beer, if that's any help to anyone.

i tried this this evening, it was tolerable

Everyneurotic 09.25.2006 09:46 PM

you are with the majority, most people like sol, i myself like the more bitter taste of corona, but most people like sol better; it's also served in 90% of bars here in mexico.

ohh and spanish beer kicks ass too.

Toilet & Bowels 09.25.2006 09:49 PM

the thing i wonder about corona is why it is always served with a lime considering that no other beers are?

a popular way of drinking beer here is michelada style, which is by putting lemon and salt on the mug, the people who market corona worldwide probably think it's a good way to make it seem like something different in the mind of the consumer, i personally am not crazy about michelada and usually avoid it.

true, sol is lighter than most beers so you can gulp it down easily and get thrashed.

Are you familiar with the beers form Guatemala and El Salvador I posted a few pages back? Omaha has a huge population of Gautemalans and El Salvadorans, besides bringing their excellent cusine, they also made their beers brand names in this city.

Everyneurotic 09.25.2006 10:12 PM

i've seen them in new york; we're very closed off here in mexico to other place's beers, i mean, it's hard seeing a heineken go by!!! we get bud, some places have miller, coors was around a couple of years ago; the craze here now is guiness, irish style bars are popping out everywhere and packed as fuck and you can even get the bottled guiness in some supermarkets, we get sapporo on some sushi bars and japanese supermarkets, we get some argentinian beers and some spanish beers. that's about it.

Toilet & Bowels 09.25.2006 10:15 PM

hmm, i've yet to be convinced by japanese beer

Cantankerous 09.25.2006 10:17 PM

i've never had any japanese beer.

 


this is really good, it's brazillian.

Пятхъдесят Шест 09.25.2006 10:19 PM

I've never had Brazilian beer. I wonder how easy that would be to pick up somewhere around here.

Toilet & Bowels 09.25.2006 10:22 PM

this brazilian beer seems to have become quite popular in london in the last few months, it's ok, very sweet for a lager

You know, we sound like a bunch of drunks, going on and on about beer.

Terrific.

Cantankerous 09.25.2006 10:25 PM

my mom is fanatical about beer.

Cantankerous 09.25.2006 10:27 PM

mine too. we're a bunch of irish drunks.

Пятхъдесят Шест 09.25.2006 10:29 PM

I was talking about this the other day with a cousin of mine. Every childhood memory of family gatherings, be it a wedding, funeral, anything, beer and vodka are involved. We are destined to be drunks.

Cantankerous 09.25.2006 10:32 PM

my cousin is a total drunken whore. every time there's a wedding she ends up going home with someone. i usually don't do shit like that, i just end up falling down stairs and making a spectacle of myself.

Пятхъдесят Шест 09.25.2006 10:33 PM

Oh, see...I fill that role in my family.

Cantankerous 09.25.2006 10:36 PM

the drunken whore role or the spectacle role?

Toilet & Bowels 09.25.2006 10:37 PM

i've never got drunk in the presence of my family (not including my brothers) as my mother would probably... well i can't imagine how she'd react, but it wouldn't be pretty.

Пятхъдесят Шест 09.25.2006 10:37 PM

Both.

Everyneurotic 09.25.2006 10:38 PM

i drank like four beers yesterday and only paid for one...after all, it was a slayer show.

ahh yeah, and i spent most of my family meals this weekend kicking back anisette shots; my mom was kinda surprised i could finish them in one shot and not get wasted,

Both them comments are weird. No one would make them statements here as it's basically a given. I know far more people who are fanatical about beer than those who aren't.

krastian 09.26.2006 12:01 AM

No my nation has the best beer! No mine does! Nuh uh mine's way better! You wanna go? Yeah, yeah I do, fucker!

king_buzzo 09.26.2006 03:46 AM

i dont care

Massenvernichtungswaffen 09.26.2006 04:09 PM

Heineken...fuck that shit! Pabst Blue Ribbon!
Pardon me, but it had to be done.
Heineken tastes like a flat Beck's.
Pilsner Urquell is another crispy good 'un.

hey atari sweet Blue Velvet reference. that film rocks
You can't get papst blue ribbon here in Newfoundland, but I do drink Heineken alot and It does taste like flat Beck's. Beck's is probably my favourite straight up pilsner.

MY fav beer though is Paulaner Hefeweizen Dunkel it's like a guinness mixed with a wheat beer type beer. it's great. smooth and strong
