For example the beers I make that my wife's friends like best tend to be Americanized milds, being Korean they have no idea of the image it has in the UK. If it wasn't seen as "old man's beer" I think it'd do just as well as wheat beer with female drinkers. No alcohol flavor, malty, just a touch of roast, plenty of malt and some nice English floral aroma is a great combination. But being American I bump up the ABV to 4% and use US-05 since English esters are nails on the chalkboard for me.Boshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06908715118408289864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5445569787371915337.post-32164666783858219502016-05-15T13:56:54.144-07:002016-05-15T13:56:54.144-07:00What were they drinking instead?

It's a challenge to brew correctly. But, when done right, it is an amazing, satisfying beer. I think the main problem with Pils is branding. When people see Pils, they think of the flavorless beers the big companies produce. Therefore, they shy away from it which is too bad. dls5492https://www.blogger.com/profile/04534283948811370279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5445569787371915337.post-52053840026385402312016-05-15T04:38:12.499-07:002016-05-15T04:38:12.499-07:00I just took delivery of a case of Flensburger Pils...I just took delivery of a case of Flensburger Pils, beautiful drink that it is. The bottle is small and has a flip top which I love. <br />Holsten is still a reliable fall back in working men's clubs where I play darts and the draught ain't up to much. Used to drink newky brown in those situations until I went off it. Newcastle are a good price today, get a bet on.Kieran Lyonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10309306469722070363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5445569787371915337.post-28357577065971303732016-05-15T03:47:27.662-07:002016-05-15T03:47:27.662-07:00This may well be the case in UK and US, but I doub...This may well be the case in UK and US, but I doubt it will be the case in Bavaria or Czech Republic?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04333265089330640873noreply@blogger.com
