Evening of the strong beers in coming!

Contestants:

Budweiser Extra Strong (16%) - CZE, alcohol content: 7.2%
Hoegaarden Grand Cru - BEL, alcohol content: 8.5%
Hoegaarden Le Fruit D?fendu - BEL, alcohol content: 8.5%

[Usrin]

But something is missing! Before Stunts Meeting, you should ask Bonzai Joe to bring a bottle of...
Master Brew - DEN, alcohol content: 10,5%!

Yesterday I tasted Miller - it was crap, especially if considering its price. (Mark: 5/10.) Well, there's no problem with its quality, but it absolutely hasn't any taste... I had the feeling that I drank some kind of quality mineral water.

Finished all the three bottles:

Budweiser Super Strong (16%) - CZE, alcohol content: 7.2%

Worse than the normal version of Budweiser, but still a very good one. Mark: 8/10.

Hoegaarden Grand Cru - BEL, alcohol content: 8.5%

Simply the best, I won't explain just re-valuate the other beers. Mark: 10/10

Hoegaarden Le Fruit D?fendu - BEL, alcohol content: 8.5%

Strange (in the positive meaning) dark beer. Quality level is similar to Dreher Bak but the taste is very different. Mark: 9/10.

I'll correct other beer's marks later. Hoegaarden Grand Cru is another class...

Miller (USA, 4.7%) - characteristic, strage but not so bad backtaste,

Hmmm... it's strange. I felt that it was almost the less characteristic beer I've ever tasted.

Where did you buy these Hoegaarden beers?

do you guys know any brazilian beer ?
we have a LOT of great beers.

you know that the biggest beer industry is InBev; Fusion = Interbrew (Belgica) + Ambev (Brazil)...
biggest in volume of hectoliters, and second in revenues.

Do you guys know: Skol ? Brahma ? Boehmia ? Itaipava ? Bavaria ?  Nova Schin ? Antarticta ? Kaiser ?

I put in my preferences order. beer in can, because in bottle the order would be: Original; Boehmia; Brahma; Skol; Itaipava; Bavaria; Antarticta; Nova Schin; Kaiser.

all regular beers, because almost all in this list, also exist in premium kind.

I think brahma is sold in many countries.

We've our own Kaiser Beer.

But as I see, once I should visit Brazil...

and its important to say that I listed the most knowing beers we have.
if I have to list all the cheap beers too, you would be amazed :wink:

just for the records: my favourite drink is caipirinha (pinga + lemon + sugar + ice; all in the correct amount and way to mix). :smt118
made of course with pinga (cacha?a, caninha, marvada, ?gua-que-passarinho-n?o-bebe, etc). because with vodka or saque (some 'sofisticated' people use these) its not the same stuff.

As far as I know Brazil is in TOP3 of beer drinking (liters/inhabitants). With such a thirsty nation it must be a world-power in quality beers too.

But here they're only 33th...

I read that in 1995 or 1996...

I saw your list.
but, somehow is strange, because I heard something more likely ctg said

[Usrin]

I've also found a strange thing, I didn't believe that Hungary is so close to Slovakia in beer consumption. But I think there's a serious mistake in that: I was probably counted as a Hungarian.

[Akoss Poo a.k.a. Zorromeister]

75.3 litres per a year? Well, I am well over it... Btw I'm almost drunk tonight...b?ff...

[Usrin]

because you are Hungarian

I'm Slovak. B?FF!

B?FF! I've tasted Radegast Beer. (I found it in the good old CBA in Veres P?ln? Street; it costed 129 HUF.) It's the best "weak" beer I've ever drunk, but we can't deny that 3,5 V/V% alcohol is not too much... Mark: 5,5/10.

CTG, I'm waiting for your new ratings and for the source of Hoegaarden beers!
