Lapin Kulta is one of the worst beers we have. It's good if you just take a sip, but after drinking half a bottle it tastes like it was opened hours ago. If you collect empty bottles after a party the Lapin Kulta bottles are allways half empty..

Really, didn't realise it was that high, thought it was around 4% only ever really tried Bud and thought it tasted like watered down steinlarger.

Anyone able to point me towards a good US beer I can try.

standard pilsner here is 4,7% so is the miller and bud we get here.

I don't really drink American beers, were you drinking that Bud ice cold? If I were forced to drink only American beer I guess it would have to be Samuel Adams. I mostly drink Beck's, Corona, Dos XX or Antartica when I can find it. A friend sent me some Carling in a can that when you opened it the can sucked air into itself so when you poured it, it had a nice head on it. novel but not much of a beer.

One of the better beers I've tried is called Boddingtons, I've never really drank anything quite like it. Its real smooth and has a very good taste.

If you've never tried it, I'd suggest buying a 4 pack, cool them, put em open and pour away into a pint glass. No special method pouring, but the "creamier" it looks the better it'll taste.

I don't know about Norway, but in Sweden I'd drink it before anything local.

hehe if im not mistaken, regular beer that you get in the shops in sweden is like 3% or something...

That was mule piss that he said, and ya all mass produced north american beer (bud, labatt, molson, miller, etc) is mule piss. You have to go with the micro breweries, or buy imported beer.

(Finish)

IMHO Lapin Gold is too "watery". Thin. But I admit that I could get such an expression because of a bad mood or something. Usually I drink something that is over 6% alcohol. Ony Western "strong" brands that I tasted were Super Skol (great one!), Amsterdam (quite a poisonous stuff, canned headache) and Eku 28 (too sweet). Oh, forgot Miller Magnum, strange taste but nice sometimes. We don't have many foreign beers here after 1998.
