Beer Review Sierra Nevada Pale Ale

2009-12-11T14:03:00.000-08:00

It is that time of year that I go to the local H.E.B to get good beer. I buy good dark beer when its cold because I don't know it just feel like that to me. Ok yes enough. Well the first beer of the season is Sierra Nevada Pale Ale. This beer is good, but I didn't like it when it was very cold, I had to wait a few minutes before it came to a good temperature yes my freezer is cold. I was playing the new call of duty and my kill rate was very good. I think that the overall rate on a scale of 1 to 10 was a 6. It was a 6 because I personally like beer with a little kick to it and it didn't really have that. I like a bitter after taste and it didn't come close. It did have a nice sweet taste and it goes down good with no bad beer after taste. I recommend this beer to anyone who likes a sweet overall taste it accomplishes that perfectly. I will continue to enjoy my holidays by drinking more beer and reviewing them ok yeah I got the time to do it....To life,liberty and everything else ok bye for now......

Chinese Bussiness Distributes Australian Beer

2009-12-11T12:55:00.000-08:00

Australian beer is more expensive than the local Chinese beer, but that doesn't stop the success of a distributor. Just Beer has had success in distributing Australian beer in China due to the fact that Chinese appreciate different types of brew. The model of distribution has served as template for Australian brews to start venturing into China to do the same. The founder Frank Li has developed a successful channel for distribution into China. As for my take on this there is only one beer that I've tried while I was in Australia that would be great to have in the United States and that would be VB or Victoria Bitter. Its no surprise that VB is the top seller with Li's beer service. I think I will have to make my own VB distribution in the States now that would be a top hit.

2009-12-03T19:55:00.000-08:00

As a person who lives on the boarder Corona beer is not a big deal, but it cannot be denied that it has a big international following. My person impression of Corona is that it is a very watered down beer and does go good with lime. Dos Xis is actually my favorite Mexican beer that is made by the same company I think. Modelo Nerogo is a good dark beer that rivals many German beer the reason why is because it is made by an old German recipe that was brought to Mexico. There are many good Mexican beers, but as discribed in the artilce link on the bottom read more to find out why Corona is so good.
