At the fancy beer store today, and the shopkeep gave me a free bottle of Kraftig lager from his sample supply.

Drinking it now...and I must say.... they won't be producing 3 million barrels of this stuff anytime soon, unless they plan to keep giving it away for free - or dump it in some beer-starved 3rd world nation.


Light colored. little carbonation or head. Tastes like corn. A bit of funkiness at the end -I wouldn't call it a crisp finish.

Hopefully Billy Busch won't blow thru his entire inheritance on this.

I liked Kraftig very much and it was very cheap.

Can't really expect something magnificent from a lager, regardless. They're basically around to be cold, approachable (or whatever adjective you want to use for 'boring'), and session-worthy. ie something you drink, and continue to drink, not necessarily for the flavor or experience, but because you can drink it through the night.

Sir, I believe you meant to say "Can't really expect something magnificent from a cheap American light lager."

Bought large bottles of Ommegang's Hennepin, Rare Vos, and Witte to package up safely in bubble wrap and fly home with me for Christmas.

Brooklyn Brewery Black Ops limited edition Russian Imperial Stout.

Bourbon barrel aged. 11% abv.

Simply the best beer I've ever had. It had better be, since its $35 a bottle (for 25.4oz)

Thrale's at Urban Chestnut is a damn delicious porter.
