Why sad for lowenbrau? It's lager not beer eurofizz like a lot of them, beer is dark, lager is pale, and beer should be drunk at room temperature to get the taste. another thing is once the alcohol content gets above four that is all you can taste, the really strong beers taste metallic. If you are not scared of not being thought a man try the ones around two, the taste really comes through. Edited October 4, 2018 by RobMc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Room temperature ? eww like pony piss yuk LOL We understand that, you don't brew any? but I understand that small breweries are really taking off over there, ignore preconceptions and go for taste and flavour not hype. Our ancestors drank beers a lot weaker than we do now, it seems to be fashionable to be stronger and stronger which ruins the flavour, if you can find an amber ale at around 2% and drink at room temp you'll never want a lager again.

Saying this almost every beer above 13% (with some exceptions, i i still have some in the cellar) taste bad. but under than that anything is possible, no matter what the levels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
