    The order of Trappiste monks at Abbey de Rochefort have been brewing beer since the early 1500's, over 200yrs before the US existed.

    I'm sure someone has already commented on this, but "bottom fermented" means the use of a Lager yeast, as opposed to being "top fermented" which uses an Ale yeast. Bottom-fermented beers are fermented at a lower temperature than Top-fermented beers as well, which tends to leave a cleaner, crisper flavor and mouthfeel.

IPA at one time was hard to like for me but now I see the mix of hops have to be specific to my liking. As long as it's not crazy dank and bitter, then I'll drink it.

    Hell is German for "light," while dunkel means "dark" and Stiegel means "stairs." You'll notice on the can, under the name, a set of red stairs.

    It also goes for Dutch, but then it is "helder" which means clear or bright. (so light as in colour, not in abf%). There is a river "Hel" in the Netherlands with a city Helmond next to it which translates to "Hellmouth", but it means the mouth of the river the Hel (which probably was very clear in the past), not a door to Satan's realm 🙂

One of the worlds best beers according to people is Westvleteren, which is also brewed by monks. By the way, except for the Rochefort, there are so many more better beers here Europe than the ones you have here. You should also drink Rochefort slowly. It’s not meant to be chugged down. I know you’re probably used to drink piss like Bud light, but this is real beer 😂.

    Here in Germany craft beer isn't considered 'real beer', a original beer here costs between 50cents and 1€ per half liter bottle at the supermarket. A Craft Beer costs between 1€ and 8€ per bottle. From each one you have a choice of around 20 different, while the original beer is 80% German and the other 20% are from other countries like Tschechia. American beer you can't find here...., no one sells Miller or 'american' Budweiser.... The craft beers are different. Half of them come from Germany, half from all over the world, mostly from Australia and New Zealand..... They've great taste, some like a bit Banana or Mango, but it doesn't taste like real beer. I prefer a nothern german style beer like Jever. Bit bitter, but really refreshing or a Radler, half beer half lemon-limonade... Younger people in Germany prefer beer mixed with coke, wheat beer mixed with bananajuice or mixed with a energy drink like Red Bull. If they have a day were they need to blackout they would drink Red Bull mixed with Vodka, or Whiskey-Coke and some Jäger shots ...

    If its "bottom fermented" its a lager and fermented and aged cold, if its "top fermented" its an ale, fermented at around room temp. This is why if you brewed some beer then split the bach and fermented one with a bottom fermenting yeast cold, and the other with a top fermenter, you would have made one half batch of lager and a half batch of ale, out of essentially the same ingredients.

    Not surprising that as a beer drinker you would choose the Tadcaster beer. England brew some of the best beers in the world. Larger or light beer is on the whole very similar. But ,Stouts,Bitter, and IPA beers take years of experience to get right and England has been brewing beer since the 1st century.

    Wow, those import prices hit you guys hard! That Innis & Gunn is only £1.70 each (about $2.15) in the supermarket here in the UK (I say 'only', there are definitely cheaper beers out there, significantly cheaper, but there are also plenty more expensive. £1.70 is kind of a typical price for a decent beer) and I think you can get a 6-pack for just under £10 ($12.50), and that is including our taxes. I don't know how your alcohol taxes differ from ours but assuming they're the same that still leaves a $3 markup per 6-pack just from the fact it is imported from the UK. That's kind of crazy to me because most of the US beer, even the smaller craft beers, aren't significantly different in price to our domestic & European beers over here. Also, in the UK, Kronenbourg is pretty much a standard, mainstream beer. It's a decent beer but it is also one which you would typically see being swigged by a typical gang of lads on a drunken night out, lol

    Innis & Gunn was my favourite followed by Guinness when I used to drink. Then I moved onto Tramps Piss (Gold Label and another strong one I don’t remember the name of), but got drinking to much (you know, one for breakfast) so stopped drinking altogether. Have not drank like that (all day long) for 13 years now and my last alcoholic beverage was 4 years ago. There are so many craft beers you should try more if you can, some are really nice. 🤙

    Yep, Stiegl is one of the better beers we have in Austria. I especially like their unfiltered beers. They have that nice sweet, but yet bitter hops taste to them. Gösser, Murauer and Hirter aren't bad either. There are many, many small breweries with exceptional beers (like Loncium) and there is the Viennese Classic: "das 16er Blech" - Ottakringer. It tastes like piss but has a certain vibe to it nonetheless.
