Stella Artois

[mIrReN]

I once heard about some Germans (who are used to heavy beers) who went to a local bar in my town drank a Duvel and said; what a light beer haha do they call this beer
3 or 4 Duvels later;

Knell, I know you love Russian river. So, if you can snag you hands on another bottle, take a chance and age it. The bite completely dies but those citrusy simcoe hops become really bright. Tastes completely different. Doesnt even have to be a year. Do it for 6 months. See what happens.
Its 8% abv which I would never age something under 10, especially an IPA. But, this one was super good.

alright then, i'll give it a go i doubt any amount of time could possibly make RR brews taste bad.

nice!

on a sidenote, it seems sours are becoming increasingly popular amongst the craft breweries these days. anyone a fan? I love me a good sour. Had this last time I was in LA on tap:

Also people saying that Stella is light for them.. Ofcourse it's light. Stella's a pilsner, pilsner's are always light.

I was saying that in reference to the wife beater beer reputation it seems to have in England. I've only sipped on them in clubs, never gotten pissed on it. Maybe it does have a certain kind of drunk...

Brew Dog are a Scottish firm who have released some strong ass beers and some right tasty ones too. Just recently opened a bar sellin their brews aswell. t

There's a newish bar in newcastle serving these, haven't had them all yet but the ipa was gooood.

My favourite on tap at the moment is a Radgie Gadgie (yes its real http://www.morduebrewery.com/beers/beer.php?beers_id=10) if you can find it; its totally worth a pint! Doubt you could find it in America though, its a very small brewery.!

Gadgie is decent. Mordue is real close to us have been on Summer Tyne last few months. It's weak but smoooth


Have been drinking loads of fruit beers recently (no homo). I prefer ones like zimmermans peach or berry, where they are still quite bitter and sharp. Had Krieg on fri, was nice but too sweet, similar to the sam smiths fruit beers that are quite new.

I believe it has that reputation over here, because alot of people that generally tend to drink it, drink around 15 pints of the stuff in a matter of hours.
And consequentially get a little bit punchy towards closing time...

As pils I'd advice Jupiler and Maes, standards. or yeah, carapils. I'm only talking about belgian beers cause the only foreign one I ever drunk was pilsner urquell and it was SHIT !!

Stella > Maes > Jupiler.

Whhhaaaaaaaaaaaaat !!!! Stella tastes like you put horse pee in a soda club machine !!!!!!!!!!

I'd rather have this lol

I'm not a fan of sour beers, but I tend to do an effort for Rodenbach
