yo anyone had that rogue brewery imperial stout what comes in a big ass stoneware jug? i just saw it for a pretty outrageous price but it looked fanciful

today i drink EINBECKER WINTER-BOCK, COOPERS BEST EXTRA STOUT and MONKEY WRENCH STRONG ALE -- i have never had any of these beers before

 

[Krilons Resa]

your basically paying for that fucking bottle with the Rogue XS Series beers. Very good...but hardly worth the pricetag.

 

[einride]

how much is it over there? we would pay an equivalent of about 16 dollars for it here which kinda hurts

Around the same price. +/- a buck or two depending on where you go. Beer prices are getting fucking ridiculous as it is as of a year or so ago. I used to try everything under the sun, now I refuse to buy a lot of shit nowadays because of the dumb fucking pricing.

Rogue Imperial Stout is one of my favourite beers!

Will you be brewing it?

Anybody had any Korean beer?

 

[einride]

until proven otherwise, this is my firm belief: the entirety of asia has an absolutely dreadful (lack of) beer culture

 

[Thanatopsis123]

Beer is growing in popularity there. Japan makes some good beer but there isn't a great variety. As sake loses popularity, other things are gaining. I believe there has been an increase in microbrewing.

 

[cthulufhtagn]

i don't think i've ever been impressed by any asian beer

no.

Well, those sound shitty. I guess when I go next week I'll be be doing a bit of searching to find something decent to drink.

 

[Krilons Resa]

Still assuming it's South Korea you're visiting (lol) ...

Yeah, it's just South Korea. Wanted to do a 3 day tour of North Korea but the woman didn't want to. Something about them kidnapping some Japs and shooting one last year at the DMZ.

So I don't really know anything about beer (I've previously been forced to drink whatever is bought for me), but Monday is the 21st anniversary of my birth, and i wanna make a decent purchase. Please gimme some recommendations. Not a big fan of IPA's i think. I dig lagers. I liked Swizzles beer at HC3.
