Beer in other parts of the planet

#1

Post by iandvl »

I like my beer. A lot. And have had the opportunity to travel quite a bit in my life.

I always try and drink local beers when travelling. Mainstream local beers as I do not always get time to look for craft. Well, I try and drink local beer except for when in the USA. Most of their mainstream beer is goats' urine and then I need to fall back to ither options. One gets a very nice XX Amber in the US, but that is technically Mexican, so it does not count. Also, most pubs don't sell it - unless you are in Mex establishment.

Mainland Europe is better - so many options on tap. Some of the beer you get in the yookay is great, but one has to be careful. Some of the grog they pump out of the taps in there is horrific....

In Africa, I have always rated Nam as number 1, as my favourite beers on the planet originate from there - Tafel Lager. Their Hansa draught is also damned good.

As folk know, I have been stuck in Luanda for quite a while now. But I was pleasantly surprised at their beer here. I have had three different brands - Cuca, Eka and Nocal. All are excellent. But the Cuca is exceptional. A very sessionable beer....

Jakes: your beer is excellent. This is about mainstream beer :)

Image seems to have come through in Fortuner style (ie: on its side). I will fix when I am at my laptop.

In Thailand they have Singha Beer.
I tried one, nice, but no effect.
Then I tried another.
Nice, but no effect.
Then I had a 3rd.
Drank it while watching German tourists pick up 16 year old whores.
I decided to have one more & leave.
It was sunset & things were getting dodgy.
Half way through the 4th beer all 4 hit me!!!
