Beer

[Usrin]

As far as I remember, I've never been really drunken outside Hungary.

Places where my mood was enhanced by alcohol (had more than 1-2 beers):

- Stavanger, NOR
- Charleroi, BEL
- Lisboa, POR
- Ternitz, AUT
- Cluj-Napoca (Kolozsvár), ROM
- Štúrovo, SVK
- Bratislava, SVK
- Hoštovce (Bódvavendégi), SVK

Last night: 0.5 l Hubertus (something like Jägermeister, just better), knockout.

Recent beer tests:

Erdinger Weißbier (GER, 5.3%) - well, Paulaner and Löwenweisse are better, though they are cheaper, 6/10
Erdinger Dunkel Weißbier (GER, 5.3%) - it rather tastes like a dark beer instead of a wheat beer, 5.5/10
Erdinger Schneeweiße (GER, 5.6%) - more tasty than the basic one, 7.5/10
Rocky Cellar (HUN, 4.0%) - one of the best cheap beers, 5/10

After a long break, my former favorite: Dreher Bak!

After a long break, my former favorite: Dreher Bak!

Do you still like it? I tasted Dreher Bak in December, also after a long (ca. 2 years) break. It was a bit disappointing, not as delicious as I remembered... But it has to be tested once more before changing its points.

Btw, newbies from "the world's northernmost brewery" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_northernmost_items#Other):

Mack Nordlys Mørk Pilsner (NOR, 4.5%): 5/10
Mack Pilsner (NOR, 4.5%): 6/10

BÖFF!

Well... it's not as good as it used to be, but still the best Hungarian beer. Belgium is another league.

NEWBIE!!!

Wells Banana Bread Beer (ENG, 5.2% alcohol, 699 HUF/0.5 l): surpringly good light beer from the UK, with detectable banana taste in the background. Although I don't want to add fruit tasted beers to the official list, I would give quite a good mark (8.5/10). Testing continues in the evening - probably with worse beers.

Berg König Premium (AUT, 5.0% alcohol, 189 HUF/0.5 l, Aldi beer): well, well, well... strange one. I can't name any special weak point (no metallic or rotten feeling, no weird backtaste), but the overall taste doesn't really fit me. Fair enough to drink it in the summer, but I would not recommend it instead of Borsodi. Mark: 4.5/10.

[CTG]

McEwans Export (SCO, 4.5% alcohol, 749 HUF/0.5 l): the sweet nothing. Beerish taste without power, turning into sweet after swallowing. Not a bad one, but really... is it worth to buy such an ale for ~2.50 Euros? NO! Mark: 5.5/10.

* CTG is drinking Borsodi at the moment.

Well, due to very favorable prices in the Spar supermarkets (and due to the fact that there are no more Iron Maiden concert tickets available, and I don't have one), I decided to try some special Belgian beers.

Three bottles are in front of me:

Corsendonk (BEL, 559 HUF/0.33 l, alc. 7.5%, extr. 15.4%)
Kasteel Rouge (BEL, 559 HUF/0.33l, alc. 8.0%, extr. % no data)
Duvel (BEL, 559 HUN/0.33l, alc. 8.5%, extr. % no data)

Well, after buying a shitty Puntigamer in the Ötschergräben, Austria last October for 3.40 EUR, these prices sound really good.

Nice choices! Kasteel Rouge is probably the best fruity beer I've ever tasted.
