Stella Artois

This review comes from a June 8th Wall Street Journal article talking about how Anheuser Bush is now the exclusive U.S. importer of the beer and how as a result, bars and pubs are coming up high and dry. When it comes to getting the beer. The fact that the beer was becoming had to fade me want to go out and get some for myself, RIGHT AWAY!!!! Disappointed that there were no singles I got the whole six pack. When I am trying a new beer I always like to get a single to see if I like it or not, this way if it turns out that I don’t care for the beer I have not wasted my money, and in this day and age one can never be too frugal when it comes to making sound dissuasions with beer money. Unfortunately this beer tastes just like a Budweiser. If you find that you just love lagers, my suggestion is to pick a cheap one and stick with it because all but a few lagers taste the same. I can only hope that you’ll drink beer for the beer, not the label on the bottle. It was at that time that I had been suckered into rushing out and purchasing a beer because of the fact that it was made out to be this really good beer that was so popular that it was being consumed at a record pace. Only to find that I had been bamboozled, I hate when a beer has a cool new label and the company pumps mega dollars into promotions only to find that it taste the same as others. "Stells" as the beer is refereed to my hipsters in the bars is a standard brew by European standards while it’s popularity is rising on the east and west coast sense Budwiser is now the only distributor of this beer which is pinching out all the other distributors who were the original distributors before Anheuser Bush took over. Anheuser is turning into the Wal-mart of the beer world. Which since the time when I first created this beer review has been bought by the European distributor of Stella Artois, how fitting that the big boys of American Beer are now owned by a European company. How the big have fallen. In conclusion to this rant, if you want to look cool at the bar drink "Stella" if you want to drink a lager, drink a Budwiser and save some money. Think right, drink right.

Singha

This beer brings to the table a bouquet of bittersweet effervescent taste with a hint of lime. The closest taste equivalent from the "big brand name beers" is Heineken, which is not an Asian brew but is quite a popular beer among the Asian community. Singha has a clean start with a pleasant mild finish. This is a good beer to have with the spicy and sweet sauces often found in the tie cooking. The overall taste is reminiscent of a young spring afternoon, one of those lazy carefree days where the sun warms you, but the occasional wind gusts brings a slight bitterness. The beer is best with sweet/ spicy foods. So enjoy.

Halida Premium Lager Beer

Ah so, me so thirsty and if you are, you will love this beer, it is extremely light in all of it’s taste aspects. Like when your smart phone back lighting goes out, you still know the screens info is still there. This beer is just like that in that it is in my opinion it’s very light in the taste department however, this is probably because it’s as hot as napalm death down in Hanoi town during the summer, hell it’s hot at winter time as well. So it makes sense that the beer down there is so light and refreshing and goes will with spicy Asian food.


P.S. Thanks sis, for the beer, be safe and enjoy. I love you very much.

Samuel Smith Oatmeal Stout

When I first cracked this one open I could tell that this beer was going to be an entreating journey down flavor street. This beer is so dark, light can not escape from its surface. This is one formidable looking beer and a lesser man would run. However, being the intrepid ale explorer that I am. I gave this one a go and I am glad that I did. This is a chocolatie, leathery smelling beer with a light hint of smoked fish. You might think this is really more of a desert beer than anything else so I was completely pleased by it’s performance with my meal of Whole Food’s sausage and a medley string vegetables. This beer has earned a spot in the beer of the year contest. For those who may not know, the "beer of the year goes to the beer that was all around superior in all of the categories that I use to calculate a beer. 1) TASTE 2) color 3) in the glass aroma 4) how well it goes with food 5) drinkability and overall versatility. So in conclusion don’t doubt the stout.
