this is pretty good
I swear I'm not a weeb
>>7390019
In these threads we ask ABV? not ASL?
>>7390019
nah, it's too dry
beer is a liquid, it's supposed to be wet. Why does it taste so dry?
It's just another adjunct lager, if I wanted my beer to taste like corn I'd just get Icehouse or Big Flats
>>7390019
Lagunitas-Little sumpin sumpin, Guiness, and Ballast Point-Even Keel are my favorites.
For lawnmower type beer I just drink Natty.
Im going to go to the corner store and buy two 32 oz Milwaukee's Best beers and Drumstick ice cream cone.
>>7390103
>tfw I have two of those in my freezer right now
>>7390019
unless you live japan or are a weeb, there is no reason to buy asahi/sapporo/kirin. it is a mediocre pale lager and you pay import prices. same goes for heineken, stella, harp, etc.
>>7390080
It is far from being adjunct, you five burrough dweller
>>7390117
Beers or cones?
>>7390127
>brewed with a dickload of rice
>not adjunct
>>7390140
>Asian dicks are tiny
>Poor choice of literal amplifier
>>7390120
it's brewed in the UK m8
and Heineken/Stella/Harp are cheap as fuck here too
>>7390120
>heineken
>imported
Depending on where you live, I guess. Not here though.
It always gets me when restaurants charge you as if it it was imported when you can get it on the super market for less than a buck.
>>7390019
dry/10 drink saporro if you're gonna jap out
Bought this in the supermarket, even though the packaging was kind of lame I thought it might be a slightly more interesting lager than regular stuff.
I'm dumb. I fell into their marketing trap, just because it mentioned the hops they use on the label and looks kind of 'kooky'.
Literally tastes like Appletiser. I don't know if they sell it outside the UK but don't buy it.
>>7390597
I did the same with pic related. Totally unimpressive.
>>7390566
When I was in Hokkaido I got roped into carrying the shrine in pic related, and at every stop there'd be a little table with cans of Sapporo. So nice.
Also I found out Budweiser is made with 30% rice. Huh. Is it a taste thing or to cut costs or what?
>>7390019
Both Sapporo and Kirin are way better than Ashai
Has anyone else tried this? This shit is just great, has a really crisp taste to it.
>>7390707
Totally undrinkable. Victory is reddit-tier trash.
>>7390019
>not drinking the GOAT of weeb beers
>>7390614
It's a cost saving measure, most all of the big American lagers (Miller, Bud, Coors, etc) use adjunct grains like rice and corn.
>>7390127
>five burrough dweller
What is this insult? Does that mean you live in NYC? Because NYC is probably the least fly-over place.
Also if you are trying to spell boroughs you dun goofed.
>>7390769
If you aren't drinking this, you aren't weebing hard enough.
>>7390778
I would hate to be accused of living in NYC. It's a total shit hole.
>>7390807
salty because can't afford
or
salty because live in michigan upper penisula
>>7390806
it's there, i didnt buy it because yebisu/sapporo/kirin is so much cheaper. is it good? what kind of beer
>>7390823
It's a belgian-style witbier, and yes its delicious.
You guys ever have Upland beer? It's from my town
Also why isn't everyone's favorite style porter? Fucking porter and stout are the best
>>7390019
i don't mind asahi desu
>>7390806
hitachino actually makes some decently decent stuff.
The red rice ale, commemorative, saison du japon, japanese classic and XH are all good beers.
>>7390019
>this is pretty good
>I swear I'm not a weeb
No OP. You are correct. Asahi Super Dry is indeed crisp and delicious and pairs awesomely with some edamame, some pretzels or some Reese's peanutbutter cups. It's the Japanese equivalent of "Bud Dry" which is, sadly, discontinued.
>>7390074
sound logic
>>7390103
pick me up some 'ritos & a monster thx
![negra-modelo[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/oMNe3Ho.jpg "negra-modelo[1].jpg")
What do you guys think of Negra Modelo?
It's my favorite non-fancy beer desu
>>7390946
its what i usually get at a mexican restaurant. pretty decent for a mexi beer.
>>7390946
It's not bad. I usually order it at Mexican places when they don't have Bohemia.
>>7390120
They typically cost 7 bucks a 12 pack where I live
>>7390019
I love Asahi, I think it's great
Kirin is terrible and Sapporo is for weebs
Look out cunts, best beer coming through.
best (commercial) beer I've ever had.
Anyone here enjoy Coors Banquet beer?
>>7391045
Absolutely disgusting
This is the only good beer
>>7390120
Japanese beer is actually cheaper in the US than in Japan. They brew it in the states. The other flavors are better in Japan though.
Weekend once again. Got some new beers to try out as well!
Liked this one, Ska brewing should ease up on the crystal malts some though, it would benefit from a smaller mouthfeel!
>>7390748
The only bad beer Ive had from them is their pilsner. You just sound like a prick
>>7390818
People think NYC is nice still? It's the Paris of the US
>>7391947
It's kind of cloying from the mass amounts of corn and corn syrup it's brewed with, but it's amazingly drinkable. I bought a twelve pack of short neck bottles once and drank about half the case without realizing it.
Pounding back a couple of these, so drinkable. Best APA from a norwegian brewery in my opinion.
Also polishing off one of the last bottles of my zombie dust homebrew clone. I've gotten kinda sick of singel hop citra after drinking it so much, almost too tropical, anybody else?
Bottling my Märzen tomorrow, can't wait to try it. Who /homebrew/ here?
>>7390851
Love me a good porter! Especially next to a piece of chocolate cake, or with some blue cheese. But not my favorite style. My favorite beers are light to semi-dark and drinkable. Hoppy, malty w/e as long as they are refreshing and quenching!
>>7393246
Last two batches of homebrew i had was Zombie Dust clones so i did drink it alot back then (4 months ago) got fed up with it a bit in the end of the last keg. Going to pick up the brew game again soon though with a clone of the Daisy Cutter.
Had this one today as a dessert beer after dinner. Could not believe how thick and nice it was at the abv, insane amounts of oats must have gotten into this beer!
10/10 Imperial Stout
>>7393331
I like that label brah
Continued on the dark beer track.
Not alot of coconut in the initial hit, but man does it come creeping in the after taste. Very nice porter!
I drank a very meme/hipster beer. It's an IPA with strawberry.
>>7393424
Got one in the fridge. Tired hands and Omnipollo right?
>>7393386
I'll have to keep my eye out for that
>>7390597
That's a Swedish brand. They are known for providing 'some taste' for the same price as tasteless euro lager. But Kustom lager is their worst. Fat tire is better. It's a hoppy and drinkable beer for the price but not entirely without some weird off tastes either.
>>7393431
Yeah, exactly. It was better than I expected and I really liked it. Tastes like an IPA but with tart fruitiness and a strange finish. It's kind of like a hoppy citrus flavor mixed with the actual strawberries used and makes an interesting combo. There is a little vanilla there too.
>>7393450
Omnipollo knows how to make an fruti infused beed without making it taste like fruit juice with beer added!
Had this one just now, right about the same ballpark as the Tired hands co-op i suspect. You really still get that it is a solid ipa in the backbone!
>>7390851
upland a shit senpai
>>7393246
>Who /homebrew/ here?
Here! Gonna brew a clone of Pliny the Elder over the weekend. The green bowl in the background contains yeast slurry from the cream ale I bottled recently which I'll use for the DIPA.
Märzen sounds nice. What ABV are you targeting?
>>7393680
What yeast are you using?
>>7393689
Safale US-05. California ale yeast.
>>7393694
Aha good fit for that beer! If you ever get the time to try it brew the Pliny with the Heady topper yeast! Just cut back some on the Pale ale malt and substitute with sugar and you will get a very nice version as well!
>>7393680
OG was 1.054. Finished in at 1.014 so that brings me in at 5,3. Almost exactly at target, might have wished it finished a bit drier.
Never tried Pliny because I'm in norway, but been tempted to try to brew a clone because of the hype. How is it?
>>7393699
Haven't had for almost a year. I tried it a couple of times when I was in San Francisco. It's a hugely hoppy, but quite drinkable ale. Tons of rather earthy hops aroma. I remember quite liking it.
One beer that's somewhat similar and slightly easier to find is Lagunitas Sucks. Still not available in Norway, though.
>>7393720
Lagunitas Sucks is good but it's just an IPA. If it wasn't such a low price for such a high abv I would probably never buy it. I'm glad you compared it to Pliny because now I can stop giving a fuck about trying some over hyped IPA
>>7393739
PtE is certainly overhyped, but it's still a solid beer.
>>7390807
Nyc is legit man
I dont live there but it was cool. Manhattan needs to be avoided though
>>7393460
Yeah that sounds just like Shilkmake but with rhubarb which probably makes it better. I have had a decent amount of Tired Hands beers but never tried Omnipollo before. The collaboration was similar to Tired Hands IPAs. They make some great beers with fruit adjuncts because the base beers are so good.
>>7393890
Sounds like you have been a bit spoiled with good stuff close to you killing shit from even getting close. Bad fruit infused beer tastes like hell for reference!
I went for Denmark for a closer. Very nice and balanced russian stout. Very close to the style, Old rasputin on steroids!
>>7393946
Yeah I'm glad to have them nearby. I've been buying cans from their releases the last few weeks and they're real good but a bit expensive. I haven't tried the more hyped breweries like Trillium and Tree House but my understanding is that their beers are similar to Tired Hands. Really cloudy "juicy" IPAs.
Just had a proprietors bourbon county on tap last weekend. Super maple-y
Good beer but the base bourbon county is way better
>>7394052
They're definitely similar, but Tired Hands has a much larger variety compared to the other two.
Was never a fan of Tired Hands' darker beers and that's where Treehouse has them beat.
>>7394310
Luckily they don't make many dark ones though. They have a ton of different names but it's mostly IPAs and saisons with different hop or fruit variations. I have cans of their imperial stout Only Void and they're good. It's pretty sweet and reminds me a lot of Imperial Biscotti Break.
>>7390019
Japanese macrobrews are the best macrobrews IMO.
Like everywhere else, Japanese microbrews are extremely hit or miss.
>>7393246
Just bottled my first batch today and I'm very excited. It was a Belgian Saison malt extract kit.
Would like to make more stuff but am wondering if it's worth getting more equipment to do all grain.
>>7393460
Dirty American I thought you one of us for several threads until I saw the gas stove.
On another note I am expecting Omnipollo gose raspberry and IS mudcake pecan. Did I fall for the meme names or is this brewery genuinely good?
>>7394692
They are good! Not God though.
>>7390019
Literally tastes like coors
>>7393386
>kek syndicate
Logan go home
>>7394714
Spell the name right atelast fucko!
>>7394718
I did, Logan. You're drunk, go home.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yg7DPighyk4
>>7394737
Thanks mudblood!
>>7394752
Logan you're spewing Harry Potter gibberish now. That's how drunk you are.
Very thick beer, wonderful chocolate taste.
The most notable thing though is that it has a certain dairy farm quality to it. My family has one. There's a certain smell and "taste" if you will to the air there.
>>7394756
Not logan for your inforamtion diluded friendo. Just drunk asshole.!
>>7394765
Only Logan and Qain are dumb enough to have a kek syndicate glass collection and only Logan is alcoholic enough to argue on 4chan.
Been drinking more of these guys stuff lately. Had a couple limited releases that were solid, but my favorite from them is their Sunken City saison. Something about sauvignon blanc grapes idk. It's just good and the addition of that drier white makes it a little unique
>>7390019
I don't really drink beer but Stellar/Asahi and Heineken are my go to.
>>7390097
lagunitas is shit beer, no offense but it is.
This stuff is damn good.
>>7394910
It's easily a step above Sam Adams and new belgium and roughly the same price. Some of their stuff is a solid 9/10. Maximus and Equinox for example
>>7391077
I fucking love that shit. I used to have a St. Ambroise pint glass but my roommate broke it. I never wanted to murder anyone more in my life.
>>7395022
Its the only decent beer I can get here.
well I guess Propeller makes a good beer every now and then, fucking Nova scotia sucks dick liqour prices are through the roof :(
>>7394791
m8 shut the fuck up and stop shiilling your youtube channel here
I just shotgunned four Budweisers in a row and ate some Pizza Rolls. godspeed, /ck/
>>7393946
Yin's great. My local place carries a bunch of Evil Twin stuff.
I'm really into stouts and imperial stouts lately. They have like 6 kinds by Bells and I made a mix and match pack, so far, so good.
Also picked up Pic Related. Got one from a 17.6% ABV batch. Good stuff.
fuck man. i did it again. went to a bar with some friends and got too drunk. admitted to some embarassing shit and i dont remember how i got home. fuck im retarded
>>7390748
their trippel is pretty good.
Hmm I'm loving some Kozel Dark beer at the moment- really nice and not too heavy.
I'm drinking a Troubadour Obscura right now. Lovely strong dark Belgian ale.
I can always appreciate Troubadour beers.
>>7393424
oh man that looks good, ive been drinking this orange infused ipa it's becoming my goto
>>7396026
That's the whole reason you do embarrassing shit so don't worry.
>>7396484
I'm now drinking Storm & Bliksem by De Molen. The label says Imperial IPA-ish.
I like it. It's well balanced. De Molen has a whole bunch of different really good beers (mostly IPA and Stout, but other kinds as well). Usually quite expensive though.
Real "real" pleb beer coming through.
>>7394475
Keep doing some malt extract and see if you enjoy it. If you do, then it's worth it for sure!
>>7396346
Kozel used to be my go-to when I lived in Czech Republic for a few months. I could just buy giant bottles of the stuff at the super market across the street from me for just absolute chump change. It was awesome.
>>7390019
I live in Japan and this is the beer I buy when I don't just order nondescript nama biiru. it's nice and fairly strong, but I don't see how a beer can be 'dry'; at least not in the same way as wine can be.
Very nice Coffee stout!
>>7390019
which country version?
Drinking Bengali Tiger in Upstate NY at the moment. Got myself one of those Yeti can holders and it's nice for keeping the beer cold.
>>7390707
Headwaters is pretty good, I enjoy it once in a while.
I wish they'd fucking bottle Sunrise Weiss, though.
>>7390748
Shit taste detected, Victory's a pretty damn high tier brewer all around.
>>7396026
You need to double fist water and beer, senpai. It'll slow down your drinking rate and keep you hydrated.
Are you man enough to share your embarrassing shit?
>>7390019
>liking something that came from japan now makes you a weeboo
what happened, guys? You're only a wapanese faggot if you worship japan and think everything that comes from there is the best ever
>>7397040
Unless you live in Japan, you're paying import prices for a pretty mediocre macrolager. I'll drink Asahi or Sapporo at Japanese restaurants but I wouldn't buy them elsewhere.
>>7390707
>pale ale
>Pilsner glass
Kys
>>7397047
I drink my gose out of a mason jar
>>7397045
This is false. Asahi is also brewed in the UK
I have a growler full of Maple Bacon Coffee Porter I got Thursday, so I'm going to finish it off tonight before it goes bad.
Good shit.
>>7397045
Most Japanese beers are CHEAPER outside of Japan. Stop talking about shit you don't know.
Omnipollo never lets me down!
>>7390019
I've tried so many beers, I think Asahi is my favourite. It's just so drinkable.
Get the fuck out of the way you filthy plebs. Best beer coming through.
>>7397371
and a close second is here
>>7397371
Debatable
>>7397371
had that on tap once and it was so fucking good.
>>7397040
>>7397045
Can't speak for price, but I do wish the import meme would die. Heineken, Stella, Amstel, and every single big name Japanese beer are all swill. The only reason to drink them if you're in the US is because you like shitty macrolagers but want to pretend you're too good for Budweiser
Very fat barley wine.
>>7397371
>Urquell drinker calling other people filthy plebs
Good one, anon! You're so funny...
>>7397497
You can go drink the piss water that you call beer and fuck off.
>>7397512
You realize American macrolagers are based on pilsners, right? They really aren't even bastardized that far. I'm not the one drinking pisswater, friend
>>7397473
>Budweiser and Heineken are swill therefore all macro lagers are swill
pls go
>>7397526
>all lagers are pilsners
pls go
>>7390818
>salty because live in michigan upper penisula
why would anyone be salty about that? I live in PA and I'd love to live in the UP. It seems like a nice place. I'm sorry you hate nature.
swill coming through
drinking one now and it's shit
>>7397047
No, you kill yourself
>>7397577
Where the fuck is any of this coming from? Where did I say any of that?
>>7390769
good luck finding yebisu in merikkka
ive been to japan (Kansai area)and they love corona for some goddamn reason
shit is expensive as fuck too
>>7397592
You didnt, that anon is just upset that you called out pilsners for what they are, a mediocre style based on drinkability mostly. I love them, but there's nothing super special about them. They're just refreshing yet still have some decent flavor. Not just piss.
>>7397610
>pilsners are drinkable
pls go
>>7397633
Sorry, they're very easy to drink. Does that satisfy your autism?
>>7397610
I know, I know. I just really don't understand how anyone in this day and age can still delude themselves into thinking big name European pilsners (Or even better, one specific brand) are the beer for le classy gentleman.
And I really don't want to come across like too much of a pretentious ass while arguing with that idiot. I love "good" beer, but I drink my share of macrolagers as well. Even a fair amount of OE. I just really, really hate people who put on airs over which multinational pisswater they choose
>>7397644
Yeah I strictly drink local now so I just stop giving a shit. There's no reason not to drink local in the US desu
>>7397650
You're just trolling, aren't you? I'm ashamed of myself for taking this long to realize it. No one is actually this bad at reading comprehension
>>7393424
I love that beer, i think it tastes amazing, but it smells absolutely disgusting, which is pretty strange, but it's not the only good beer i've had where the smell was off.
>>7397662
Sorry, but you kind of suck at this. You're supposed to make the same baseless accusation over and over again. If you get called out you either stay on the offensive and hope you can drag them back into arguing with you, or admit defeat and quietly leave to shitpost somewhere else. You don't try to salvage your trolling attempt by changing tactics and accusing them of the exact opposite thing. At this point your next response might as well be "LOLOLOL Troll u I was just pretending to be retarded
>>7390707
The Golden Monkey they make si what you want
>>7397697
Build wall
>>7397641
they're not though
you're thinking of adjunct lagers
>>7397714
Pilsners are very easy to drink. Macro and micro.
Just had this, was shitty. Didn't buy it to be edgy, just like imperial porters.
I live in DC and like supporting Adroit brewery because they typically release some good shit. Missed it on this one though
On mobile so can't control the rotation, apologies
Drinking a New Belgium Citradelic right now, its decent and not expensive.
>>7391986
>not Coopers Sparkling Ale
you fucking pleb
>>7397728
They're very easy to drink because you're used to drinking them.
Adjunct heavy pale lagers are infinitely more drinkable than skunky bitter Pils piss
>>7397768
They're easy to drink because the hops shine through at the end
>>7397774
That's exactly why they're not drinkable. You have to wait for that unpleasant hop aftertaste to dissipate before you can take another sip
Well this turned into a shit thread. This beer is not shit though.
>>7397795
>hops
>unpleasant
Stop drinking beer. You don't have to like ipas, but you can't even take a pilsner just stop
>>7397820
>hops
>all the same
pls go
even the Japs can brew a decent IPA
why can't you?
>>7397828
You're right. The hops in a pilsner are even less abrasive than an ipa. You're a pussy
>>7397839
We dropped a shit load of bombs on them, maybe some had ammonium nitrate in them.
I'm surprised they can even make beer though, I mean you can blind the fuckers wirh dental floss
Drinking this. Pretty good but overpriced as all Three Floyds beer besides Zombie Dust is
also, do not try google imaging this beer, google will think you mean something else and it takes a very dark turn
>>7397930
>The hops in a pilsner are even less abrasive than an ipa
eh, if its a shitty west coast IPA maybe
>>7397930
No, they're lower in alphas, but that doesn't make them less abrasive because there aren't as many flavour compunds to balance the bitterness. None of the fruitiness of IPAs, just earthy spicy shitwater.
Pilsners are nasty and there's no reason anyone should choose to drink them. Deal with it.
I don't care if it's a meme beer, this shit is still delicious.
Really been digging the Fat Tire recently. It's pretty much all I've had to drink for the last month.
>>7398861
This, 1554, and Sierra Nevada Pale Ale got me hooked on craft beer.
I'm drinking Sweetwater Blue desu
>>7393680
Started brewing.
Laker Ice is all you need.
>>7399703
>>7397371
get out with this filthy piss. even fucking croatian ožujsko tastes better than pissner
>>7399783
I don't know if you did that just to take a picture, but I also always lay out everything and label it because I usually brew drunk and want to make sure I don't fuck up (and to have a record).
>>7399799
Yeah, I always do that. Don't want to mix up anything.
>>7399783
>>7399800
Added most of the DME and first hops addition. I'll add the remaining DME and sugar at the end so I won't reduce the effectiveness of the hops.
>>7399816
How long does it take to bring it up to a boil on that induction?
>>7399827
Not long from the mashing temp. 5 minutes maybe? It's quite powerful at level 9.
>>7399834
5 Minutes is pretty good.
Last place I lived it would take close to 15 on the largest element of the gas stove.
Probably also has something to do with using a super cheap/thin dedicated brew pot that loses heat quickly.
>>7399816
Boil is over. I'm cooling the wort right now. I've put in a few blocks of ice to speed things up. I made the ice with boiled water in a sterilized container.
>>7397040
Normies, obviously.
This was a Japanese culture website, after all.
>>7390806
Second. That ale is delicious
Can /ck/ recommend me some black beer? I don't know any.
>>7399998
Like stouts? Or what?
>>7397814
I want to try this so badly but can only find it by the case
>>7399955
It isn't beer but is Bailey's considered pussy? I like it.
>>7400016
I may have not used the right words (I'm german)
We call it «schwarzbier» which I think you would call it «black beer»
Do americans only have IPA?
>>7399955
Seriously anon, invest in pic related.
I used to do the ice bath thing, but was later gifted a copper chiller (they're not even expensive) and have never looked back.
>>7400037
Aand, I'm done.
>>7400058
Yeah I guess. A DIY copper chiller shouldn't be too expensive to make either. My main issue is how I'll attach it to my kitchen tap without damaging it.
>>7400047
Schwarzbier isn't particularly popular in america, but it is easy enough to find. This stuff is excellent
>>7400079
That's a pretty funky looking carboy.
Also going DIY on a copper chiller is pretty simple if you're into that kind of thing, but unless you have some strangely designed faucet it's pretty easy to find a rubber gasket to slip onto pretty much any sink.
>>7400047
Here's a solid year round one, but like the other anon said, traditional styles aren't very popular right now, but are slowly gaining traction
>>7400079
I think Simcoe is my new favorite hops by the way. Its smell is super nice.
guys i hate to admit it
but i fucking hate IPA's
am i a memer?
i really like wheat beers, red ales etc but everywhere i go its IPA this that the otherthing
>>7390103
Whoa dude. I want to be your friend.
>>7400151
If you wanna be a true memedrinker, start drinking sour ales\beers.
>>7400151
wheat beers will be much more common as the spring and summer seasonals start rolling out
>>7400151
Drink whatever you want, just don't disregard a style entirely. I used to hate sours and gose style beers, but now my fridge is full of them.
>>7400151
Nothing wrong with not liking a style. Different people, different tastes. Maybe you'll grow to like it some day, maybe not.
I used to dislike IPA's and sours, but after 3 years I've grown to enjoy them.
>>7390019
I always buy asahi at oriental restaurants, I think it's really good and goes well with the food
>>7400288
Is oriental still offensive? I've never understood why it was considered offensive in the first place
>>7400311
its offensive?
>>7400311
well old timey people used to be racist as fuck, so modern liberals consider any old timey terms referring to race to be racist even though that is a ridiculous thing to believe
Its a never ending cycle
>>7400311
It's about as offensive as saying "colored" when referring to black people, which is to say, not really offensive.
It's more the fact that it sounds incredibly archaic and usually the kind of person who says that kind of thing is an out of touch geezer who makes all his relatives cringe and everyone else in the room stare in amazement as he drops some hilariously racist or out of touch geezer bombs on everyone within earshot.
See also: saying "The Ukraine", saying "Byelo-russia", saying "Czechoslovakia", asking for green tea ice cream in a high end Japanese restaurant, referring to "the Ethiopian famine", putting ketchup on your steak, tipping less than 20% for good service, saying "the gays", and prefacing any sentence with "I'm not racist/sexist/homophobic, but _____"

I've spent way too many years collecting beer bottles. I have lots of boxes full in my basement. These are a few of my faves. Guess which one is my favorite? Too bad you cannot buy it anymore.
>>7400311
Rugs are oriental, people are Asian. Its not racist or offensive, just incorrect.
>>7400326
>, tipping less than 20% for good service
lol nice try No one should ever tip more than 15% without some pretty extraordinary circumstances
>>7400354
oriental just means eastern, so its not really incorrect, just a little bit of an odd way of phrasing it
>>7400355
Found the out of touch geezer
>>7400357
No Oriental is not how you refer to Asian people. Do you call black people colored?
>>7400311
Oriental is considered offensive because there's no such place as the Orient.
Aladdin takes place in the Orient; what country dons it take place in?
>>7400375
The People's Republic of China
>>7400375
But how does that make it offensive? I thought it was more of a term for their culture. Like oriental, exotic. Idk
>>7400389
>pls can I have /pol/ thread, pls pls pls
Just because you got banned from /pol/ doesn't mean there aren't at least 5 or 6 other shit boards you can shit up
You've already gotten like 20 replies, we've beaten this question to death. Move along now, /pol/.
>>7400371
there is a difference between using antiquated words and those words being offensive
>>7400375
>there's no such place as the Orient.
What?
The Orient is literally just 'the east'. It doesn't have to be a nation to exist
>>7400417
And that's why it's offensive.
It's literally just a catchall term to describe the strange Other dating from Colonial times.
Do you really not understand this?
>>7399783
>columbus
>centennial
into the trash it goes
at least you tried man. that won't taste anything like pliney. whoever sold you that kit got you good...
>>7400433
So is it offensive when I refer to people from the south as 'southerners'?
>>7400433
He's just baiting, stop replying
>>7400433
>dating from Colonial times.
surely it dates back much further than that
>>7400449
I guess. I still don't understand what makes it offensive apart from the fact that it's an old timey term

Social justice warriors and feminazis are why you're not a winner. When trump is elected he'll build the wall and kick out all the mudslimes and put the niggers and fags in their rightful place: the ground.
There, you can ejaculate now. Can we go back to talking about beer?
>>7400400
Agreed!!!
This is another of my favorites. I ABSLOUTELY cannot remember where i got it, I have had it for 10 or 15 years.
The coke is for comparison only. :-)
>>7400482
Wait, do you really have shelves full of empty bottles from all the beers you've tried?
There are better ways to remember without turning your house into a recycling plant.
>>7400489
Such as...........?
>>7400495
Pictures, any number of apps, a beer journal, autistically removing the labels and just keeping those...
>>7397814
This is one of the best beers I've had.
>>7400502
what happens if a burgerlar steals your computer or the dog eats your beer journal faggot?
>>7400659
Untappd and I assume any other app stores that shit online
>>7400437
Pretty much all recipes I found use these Centennial and Simcoe.
Including this one:

And the one from the Russian River guys:

Columbus is used as bittering hops. You could use any high-alpha hops for that one without affecting the taste.
>>7400437
Centennial hops are great. I don't get the hate
>>7400371
I prefer calling them niggers, thanks.
>>7400659
What happens if a burglerar eats all your beer bottles dyke?
How do I start drinking? When I go out to eat with buddies I usually just get a water. I don't go out enough to experiment with stuff, and I never drink normally.
But I feel constantly left out of alcohol conversations, and the like.
>>7400726
Just start picking up stuff that sounds interesting to you. That's what I did with beer and whisk(e)y. Don't drop a bunch of money on anything right off the bat, but doing a mix a six with different styles is a good way to start.
>>7400743
Whats a mix a six?
Like I can go to a grocery store and pick different kinds?
>>7401017
>>7401020
Oh this is good. Do I just pick any random ones?
I guess I have to learn more about different beers.
>>7390120
>tfw had a weeb friend who was a staunch non-alcoholic until I bought him a 6 pack of Asahi
>tfw he quit drinking Asahi after Fukushima because he was afraid of radiation contamination
>>7401020
$9 is pretty expensive for mix a six, especially for most of the beers in that picture.
>>7401032
>Do I just pick any random ones
You could, but I'd suggest that you at least read up on the major styles so you have an idea of what you're getting. You don't want to end up with 6 bottles of IPAs then come back saying you've been meme'd.
Is Kirin a decent beer or just a meme ?
>>7400726
go to grocery store and make yourself a mixed 6 pack of various local beers. Most stores have a section of single bottles specifically for this and sell for about $8-9
>>7400079
Got 25L of my first attempt at an Imperial stout in secondary right now.
OG went a bit shit, as I brew outside, and temperature dropped & I had to keep the lid on a bit - thus less boil-off than what I wanter. Still managed 1075 OG, down to 1012 after primary.
Mashed high, so hopefully it'll have a nice amount of body, aiming for 8.5% ABC now (should have been 10, but nevermind). Added 110g of cocoa nibs in the secondary - should make a nice beer by Christmas.
Now I think I'll go with a simple APA again, as an everyday beer.
P.S. Lervig's some good beer. Especially liked the hopped farmhouse thing.
>>7401032
DOn't go for any of the international brands that advertise on TV.
There are probably 2 or 3 bigger local breweries tat you hear people near you talk about. Try and stick mostly to that and vary the styles, get a stout/porter, an IPA, a wheat beer, a lager, and something else that looks cool
>>7394877
>Insight
Fuck yeah.
I gotta get back to the Surly brewery soon. Do you know if the patio is open?
>>7401166
I should probably plan ahead and try something that needs long storage sometime soon. Having a nice winter warmer by the end of the year would be nice.
>>7401160
I like it, I'll usually get a glass if I go to a Japanese restaurant that sells it. Japanese beer is very close to German styles because Germans set up breweries in Imperial Japan hundreds of years ago once trade with the Far East was opened.
>>7390019
>nip anything
>good
Nah, go fuck yourself, weeb.
>>7401191
Second sentence is really interesting. Reminds me of their history of taking a liking to Scotch then coming up with world class styles of their own
