beer question

Some of the Chinese beers we have tasted here are also very good - not just the famous ones like Qingdao but other local breweries in small towns. Another nice thing is how cheap it is; around 35 cents American for a small can!

I'm not a beer connoisseur by any stretch of the means and rarely drink, but there are a few breweries in the area. One has this delicious Raspberry and Caramel ale. *drools*

I like beer, but not all of them. I find most Ale's too flat. My favourites are a Danish Hancock, a lager type. The Belgian Westmalle is delicious - and one called Waggle Dance is quite good, that's a honey beer. Not sure I can remember the German one I like, but it's something like Prince Luitpold, there's a dark and a light.

On a warm summer evening, there's nothing better than a cold beer!

I dont drink beer, however I was watching the History channel this am. (so you guys can look up the segment under modern marvel brewing) and found out 2 neat facts:

The oldest still running brewery is in Bavaria, it has been in operation since 1042

And in 1814 in London a wooden vat exploded, causing a 25' high stream of beer to flood the streets....8 ppl drowned in beer, and dozens of other ran to collect the free beer!!!

That is all I know of beer as I dont drink much of it, had a Witches Ale once which a honey Ale and it wasn't to awful, but I will stick with my whiskey or Vodka LOL

Just a cpl of thoughts,
