agusta Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 I've received a thank you case of beer from a client - the case contains beer from around the world. Desperados (FR) Brooklyn Lager (USA) Cruzcampo (SPA) Keo (CYP) Moosehead Lager (CAN) Quilmes (ARG) Singha (THA) Tsing Tao (CHI) Tusker (KEN) Victoria Bitter (AUS) So far I've had VB which was like drinking tap water - and Cruzcampo which was ok, again not much flavour. The big surprise has been the Brooklyn Lager, I opened it thinking it would be like Miller, far from it - its one of the nicest beers I've tasted now trying to source a few cases! Any others in the list I should be looking forward to ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

agusta Posted February 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 Just tried the Tsing Tao (made of fake ingredients ) I would put that second last with VB being in last place - why make a lager with no taste what so ever!

Billy. Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 Ever heard of Beer Ticking? One of my clients got an iPhone App made for it. Not sure if it got published in the end. Basically just trainspotting for beers and pubs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raja Clavata Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 Yep, Tusker ain't too bad but we generally drink the malt version when in Kenya - that's sold in smaller bottles but proper nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They deliver too Tusker is a decent drop of lager. Paulaner Munchner Helles is my all time favourite, along with the Paulaner and Spaten Oktoberfest beers.] Thirsty now..

Chris Bb Posted February 12, 2011 Report Share Posted February 12, 2011 So far I've had VB which was like drinking tap water - and Cruzcampo which was ok, again not much flavour. Are you chilling these beers enough. They're made for drinking in hot countries and should be served COLD. Always liked Vikky Bits when I was in Oz, also Cruzcampo in Spain. Mind, some of these beers just don't "travel" they're made for home consumption in the warm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
