I think Brian needs to stick with Orangeboom!

Yes, there's Carlsberg, Giraf, Grolsch, Orangeboom, Brand.......... ad infinitum. Smokin

Brian has good taste and doesn't have to impress anyone. Nothing wrong with a nice cold one from the Low Countries.

Didn't even know Oranjeboom still existed, haven't seen or drank it in years. Not that I want to, during my years as a student many described it as (literally translated) "owl's pee"

Carlsberg is not Dutch btw. And Giraf? Never heard of that one.

Grolsch... now you're talking!

I am a 'Korbinian' man myself. I never calculated the calories, for fear of getting a heart attack from the number.

I am doing well, thank you.

Hacker Pshorre and Hoegaarden are my two faves. Lindman's various Lambics are great too.

I love how this "Kokomo" thread has morphed into a discussion of everyone's favorite beers - it somehow seems very appropriate!

As a non-alcohol drinker, I can't contribute too much...but I do love my soda pop.

C'mon...if Brian drinks enough of the good stuff, maybe we can talk him into bringing back the bathrobe on stage. That would be fantastic.

Yeah! You can get a six pack of Oranjeboom in pint cans at Trader Joes for about $4!!!!

Pretty good for owl's pee!

On weekdays, I stick to Euroshopper, the house brand of supermarket Albert Heijn, see picture:



It does have its critics, but in fact it's a great thirst quencher without hangovers. It is ridiculously cheap: 40 Eurocents for a 0.5 liter can. It is what the Brits like to call: 'tramp juice'.

I think that real quality beer every day diminishes the experience (apart from a higher price point). So I love my German and Belgian beers on weekends. Never during daytime, by the way. After one glass before sunset I am completely incapable, and get a bit irritated after the first brief high.

So: I vote for Euroshopper (also: eternal winner of the worst graphics on the can/bottle, it's all fake wherever you look). And you can learn modern Greek, Finnish, and other languages from all Euroshopper product packaging too... it's an all-round winner, coolest brew in the world!
