Leffe: Vladimir's Beer Thread

[Crazed Rabbit]

I'd take Busch Lite hot off the stove over a cold Kokanee any day.

I think you and I may have...slightly...different tastes.

Anyways, what do you haughty easterners think of Labatt Blue?

Hate, hate, hate. Unless it comes from a microbrewery or a small, independent brewer, it's Moosehead or Lakeport (Wee Willy) for me. This isn't counting imports, of course.

Ah, another Moosehead fan. The Moose is my "utility" beer. It's getting harder to find in this area, but fortunately a friend of mine has an ABC licence and knows the distributor well. Keep sending it south!

It's not so much that I'm a 'fan' as much as my family is from New Brunswick. I still prefer German or Danish, but my father won't have it, born and raised in Frederiction, after all.

He didn't have anything to do with the missing Mexican shipment, did he?

All we have in the fridge are Coronas. A lousy cold weather beer. But, like a leaky life raft, it's better than no life raft at all.

That's the way it should be.

As my buddy used to say, "Lips that touch Labatt will never touch mine." If you're caught at home in a storm or killer elephants are blocking the store entrances, then Blue is fine standard swill, a noteworthy sludge, a drinkable pee. If, however, you have a choice, then there is no choice. It is to be avoided as are all soda pop + alcohol mass produced stinky beers.

PS: Seriously, hot Busch lite?!

Sure. I dip frozen raw hamburger sticks in it. Great stuff.

Lol.

Anywho what's the opinion on Peroni

[caravel]

Leffe Brune/Blonde is superb. I usually get about two or three of the 75CL bottles in at the weekend (I'm one of those people that drinks beer or wine with every meal much to my wife's dismay).

Peroni Nastro Azzurro is a good beer, as is the Chinese Beer Tsingtao, the Peruvian Beer Cusqueña, and of course Duvel.

Australian beer is either nothing special or absolutely hopeless.

Corona, more marketed crap or what? Tecate, what's the opinion on that?

[caravel]

Corona is another mexican Beer. It's quite refreshing, in a non beer like way, but nothing amazing, a bit like Sol or Brahma. Tecate I've never tried.

I've had Corona numerous times (quite often for a lack of anything else) but what you said is very true "refreshing, in a non beer like way, but nothing amazing".

Tecate is also Mexican, made by the same company as Sol; so I'm guessing nothing special.

EDIT: I post in the beer thread and it effects my grammar and posting style.

Mmmmmm, Corona. Now that's what I'm talking about. Good taste, good name, good looks.
