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.

Try "El Diego"


Kidding! Don't!

Hmmm... Tetra Pack wine is also known in South America.

Well, yes... we have all kind of cheap alcoholic stuff. I'm not proud of it, but I once had this product (it wasn't this brand, but you'll get the idea).
It was cheaper than buying a bottle of water, so imagine how bad that was...
Also, cheapest beer ever!
Yes, it is me. No, I'm not back at racing (for now...)

Cheaper than 0.13 USD?

Around .15 USD (don't remember the exact Pesos/USD ratio last time I saw that beer thing

So it is like Schlossmühle: few years ago it was 29 HUF/0.5 l.

Attention! ONtopic post!

I'm drinking Juleøl (=Christmas beer) of Lade Gaards Brygghus. I thought that it should be tested before I ruin the festive mood with it on Christmas Eve.  :D

Result: it isn't good. It tries to be a "semi-brown" beer (like Arany Ászok Félbarna), the colour is OK, but it is tasteless even if compared to lager beers... So:
Lade Gaards Brygghus Juleøl (NOR, 4.7 V/V%, 27 NOK/0.5 l): 3.5/10.

Btw, next week we'll have the annual company meeting in Belgium. Is it really a beer paradise? Keep up with forum posts!  :)
