And it was exactly his 26th post in this topic. Which is exactly 22 more than the amount of letters in "beer", and 22 is exactly 14 more than the amount of Hungarian and Danish medals currently won, combined. And 14 is the amount of years since the Kalpen competition started, and in the Kalpen competiton, Zak's third race was CTRACK25, and 25 is the cube root of 15575, and 15575 is just a useless random number!!

Did I?
Was I drunk perhaps?

And if you try to read 15575 as letters, it spells "isses" which exactly corresponds to the Böhm-Kalpen-Maass song "So Isses" from the Venito album!!! Or is it 50 15575?

Further newbies are coming! It seems that I found several good German beers, but still nothing outstanding.

Kloster Landbier (GER, 0.69 EUR/0.5 l, 4.7 V/V%): 6/10.
Flensburger Pilsener (GER, 0.89 EUR/0.33 l, ): 7.5/10.
Heidelberger Pils (GER, 0.49 EUR/0.5 l, 4.7 V/V%): 7.5/10.
Holsten Pilsener (GER, 0.59 EUR/0.568 l, 4.8 V/V%): 7/10, of course much better than the Holsten in Hungary. Moreover, they tried to give a larger discount than Borsodi, offering "13.5% GRATIS" in a can.
Engel Kicker (GER, 0.69 EUR/0.5 l, 5.6 V/V%): 2/10. Perhaps it's a speciality, but not for my taste. Strong, very strange, very sweet aroma, I never felt anything like that. But I didn't have to give up, and drank it all, so it deserves 2 points.
Kaiserdom (GER, 0.99 EUR/1 l, 4.7 V/V%): 7/10. The 1 l can looks very nice!
Karlskrone Gold (BEL, 0.29 EUR/0.5 l, 4.9 V/V%): 4/10. A competitor for Grafenwalder, from ALDI. But they should not play in the same division... Karlskrone is tasteless and water-like.

Two newbies (?), don't ask how I did it during such a strict "cholecysta-friendly" diet. I forgot the exact alcohol content and the price, so it was a mindless sampling.

Karlovacko (CRO, ~5% alcohol content): average festival beer, it deserves 6/10.
Egger (AUT, ~5%): same category, slightly worse than the former one. Mark: 5/10.

25-30 beer brands remain unrated from the past, I don't have their score. Some of them are Belgians...

"cholecysta-friendly" diet

Seems like my cholecysta has no detectable problem. But alcohol is still forbidden...

[CTG]

Single beer test, LOL...

Corsendonk Agnus Triple (BEL, 7.5 % alcohol, 699 HUF/0.33 l): if I take it as a beer from anywhere - quite good. If I add that it's a Belgian one... well, only mediorce. It's something like Osasuna in La Liga: they are weaklings in Spain, but they could easily win the Hungarian "professional" league. The bottle is nice anyway. Mark: 7.5/10

Double beer test ---> liver pains in the morning. It sucks...

[CTG]

Zähringer Schwarz (GER, 4.9% alcohol, 233 HUF/0.5 l can): weak mediorce one with sour backtaste. Don't try it! Mark: 3/10

Crabbies Ginger Beer (ENG, 4% alcohol, 599 HUF/0.33 l): very tasteful, I loved it - but it's not a beer at all. If somebody says I drink concentrated Canada Dry, I would believe it. No evaluation.

Forgot to add few weeks ago:

Durlacher Weissbier (GER, somewhere around 5% alcohol content; 349 HUF / 0.5 l can): solubility test of yeast in light beer? Tastes like that, it doesn't remind me on any other wheat beers (maybe Valentin's Weissbier is the closest one). I didn't like it. However, it's not an extremely bad one. Mark: 3.5/10

Off-topic: the californian semi-sweet Lady Elena wine is probably the best rosé I have ever tried.
