We must liberate the south from the budweiser menace

Heineken's brand name in China is translated as {喜|xǐ}{力|lì} or "force of happiness" which is a good name for a beer

Chinese restaurants in the US had led me to believe that Tsingtao was the only beer sold in China.

China Resources Beer owns CR Snow, which makes Snow Lager 雪花, which is apparently (?) the world's highest-selling beer

Its also like 3% ABV and comes in big bottles. Uncs would get crates of 12 at a restaurant and drink it like water.

I would like a jug of Chinese beer.

Wusu is pretty solid beer. Tsintao tastes a little watered down imo

gotta hand it to you that's certainly a new map to me

[–] Damarcusart@hexbear.net 6 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I keep trying to get Tsingtao, but it's always "out of stock" around here. No idea why liquor stores even claim they carry it if they never actually have any cases.

If you're in Yankistan, then probably waiting for tariffs to be dropped.

Tsingtao is the worst beer I've ever had, but I would love to try the other ones here

I visited their brewery before and got the tour which includes a tasting of their unfiltered fresh draughts. Much better than the bottled stuff, though you might have better luck with canned ones since the bottles get skunky during transport, they're too lightly coloured to block sunlight and the beer just seems to skunk up quicker than others. Otherwise, its a fairly mediocre German style lager which makes sense since it was the German occupation that started it.

unfiltered fresh draughts

Oh, is that what they meant? Somebody was communicating to me through a translation app and asked if I wanted "raw pulp beer." I declined because that sounded gross.

[–] Gucci_Minh@hexbear.net 3 points 2 days ago

LMAO yeah they meant unpasteurized unfiltered beer

This map is weirdly squished at the sides and I can't unsee it
