OT: The beer thread

[frozen_core]

here's one of the worst i've ever had:

OV...conveniently stands for "Old Vagina"

 

[FretSlug]

Still a few more beers to come! My favourite beer here in Finland is 'Laitilan Kukko' - it has a sort of a smoky taste in it.

Another good one is 'Sandels'.

Both of these beers are pretty great but most of the time I can't afford them and I'll just have to settle with previously mentioned 'Karhu' or 'Lapin Kulta'

Edit: Whoa, the Sandels picture is HUGE.

Matt, you get one of these for starting this thread:

OMG, an ever better coupon than the technologically obsolete "one internet" coupon... it's pretty standard for each person to have at least two internetz these days I believe.

i think it is an american beer.

The best beer I know is the Pilsner Urquell draft beer in Czechia.

 

[ABQShredHead]

Yes, the Czechs have great beer. Well worth a trip to the country to sample.

Actually, 1 Internet isn't obsolete; It's just not as leet as 2 Internets.

XX Ambar rules!!! (Dos Equis) Mexico.

i actually like the one internet coupon better. The 2 internet one seems to make a mockery of winning internets.

Fair for the right occasion. But, in my mind, any beer requiring lime lacks proper beer flavor. Negra is much better than Dos Equis, but I still enjoy it during the summer months.

Whereas students here can't afford anything more than a Tui.

Just had the Samuel Smith Imperial Stout tonight... this will definitely become a regular buy for me. I tasted both dark chocolate and caramel and some coffee. I can see it being really good after dinner.

really my favourites, if it wasn't so hard gettingthem...

even in Germany you have a different version

 

[ABQShredHead]

Similar with pretty much all countries' beers. What's exported is usually very different from what is sold locally. Just look at Guinness.

Yummy.

I have an Avery Imperial Stout and a Stone Russian Imperial Stout for later today.

Yesterday I had a Mephistopheles (beyond Imperial at 15.1% ABV) and a North Coast Brother Thelonius (9.4% Belgian style). Those were flat-out awesome.

There's a beer called Mephistophles? I have to try it.
