>it's a everyone posts the most obscure beer they can think of just to appear like they're sophisticated thread

>>19014207
>inb4 everyone responds to this thing saying x beer isn't obscure at all just to further the eletist LARP

>>19014207
Thomas Hardy's is obscure in 2023 I will very much admit, but back in the day I could find it in 4 packs at most liquor stores. I avoided trying it because it cost like 20 bucks for a 4 pack which seemed ludicrous at the time, but one Christmas I got a bonus at work and tried it. Shit was amazing so I would buy a 4 pack once a year and drink a bottle every few months on a holiday or when I took vacation. They discontinued it for awhile and now it's really hard to find.

>>19013609
Not at all. Helles in general is basically just like sweet lite beer. Both the most boring styles in existence.

>>19014422
I've never had OP's (I can't even read what it is), but sometimes you get a Helles or other boring beer that is just perfectly in balance - or slightly skewed in an interesting way, at a perfect temperature, even served with a perfect meal or at a perfect time of day just to help you remember this beer as the most perfectly beer-flavoured beer you've ever had.
I like a lot of beer more than I like Hacker Pschorr's gold lager, but it's my go-to for crushing cans.

>>19013609
stand aside.

>>19013609
I'm pretty sure this is the best right now

For me

>>19014750
German beers are boring Hans.

>>19013609
I like Rolling Rock, Grolsch and Sapporo.

>>19015005
In what sense?

>>19014207

I prefer my smoked meat and beer to be separate.

>>19013609
stand aside

>>19013620
My fucking nigger. I got my whole town hooked on this. The store can't keep it stocked.

>>19014750
This is a very good brand. I've tried a few of them and they were always good.

>>19015620
Nta but i think theyre generally good but lack a lot of variety. The Reiheitsgebot has been holding them back for centuries. There's only so much variety you can do without breaking basic beer recipes.
I have been hankering a proper hefeweizen for a bit though

>>19015701
Not an abbey beer and not Belgian. Get out with these surrogates, you're wasting our time.

>>19015747
They've definitely got their flagships, and tend to rely on hops more for a balancing act, but they've done a lot with a handful of simple ingredients - pale to dark, sweet, sour, smoked, dryer lagers, fruiter ales, squeezing a bit of citrus out of noble hops from time to time, or straight up adding citrus for a refreshing stick of the dick in the main loophole of the RHG - If it's not called "Bier" it doesn't have to obey the beer laws.

>>19015783
NTA but Mons' surrogates, and Unibroue's, can be pretty on the ball. Hardly a waste of time.

>>19015783
>not Belgian
fake country anyways

>>19015981
Ah yes the classic loophole that facilitate the abomination of pic related

>>19016180
Where can i get this rare Belgian rapist beer?

>>19015665
why do you waste your beer all over your hands? is it such low quality that it literally doesn't matter?

>>19013609
I live in Erding, home of the Erdinger Weißbier, and it feels like literally 95% of all glass beer bottles that i see dumped by the roadside on my bicycle tours in a 20 mile circle around Erding are Augustiner Helles.

>>19016191
Go to the most German sounding goth club you can find. Wait to see how many men are holding hands or dancing together. If it's at least a dozen, order a Diesel from the bar.

>>19016267

>>19016267
that’s why i posted it. it’s probably the best beer in the world. i’ve left a few bottles over berlin myself

>>19014760
is it even available outside of japan?

I tried asahi the other day and it was interesting but I wouldn't buy it again

>>19013609
I have yet to get sick of this. It's not going to blow your mind, but God damn it's good when you're on the lake and the fuckers ice cold

>>19013609
that looks tasty op

Vitus is good shit.

>>19015665
Almost the goat. Schlenkerla Rauchbier is amazeballs.

>>19013609
*ahem*

>>19017818
Tremens is good Nocturnem is great.

>>19017818
Great beer.

I think it is neat.

>>19018582
Kiwanda forever

>>19017818
this shit gave me the worst hangover of my life, it tastes like nasty cream cheese too

>>19018771
Either you need to get checked, or you have amazing cream cheese.

>>19014808

The most basic Kölsch in Cologne.
Even the homeless are drinking this

>>19017818
Pretty good. I tried the red one for the first time recently and it's also heavenly. I think la Chouffe cherry is better but Delirium is easier to find imo.

>>19013609
No, that would be "Augustiner Edelstoff", the one on your pic is Helles.

>>19017818
i always forget other countries also drink our beer haha

>>19019404
they only export the edelstoff and one other to america. the helles is their best beer

>>19019555
They like it so much in Quebec, a bunch of breweries have started making their own.

>>19014760
Is this the easiest Pepe edit of all time?

>>19013609
wrong, yuengling

>>19013609
True. I love it.

Pic related is underrated tho.

>>19013729
haha, my dad actually had one of those drink can openers, used to keep it next to the regular can openers in the kitchen drawers.
i have many a memory of trying to open soup cans with it because the regular can openers were at the bottom of the dish pile in the sink.
