Singha
Boon Rawd Brewery Co., Ltd | Bangkok, Thailand
Purchased @
Beer & Wine World - Mansfield, Texas USA
Style: Pale Lager
My first brew from Thailand and one that matches up well within its beer style. Very smooth and refreshing with no harsh bite or aftertaste. It is a bit thicker than previous pale lagers that I have savored; thick like a Miller High Life. I would definitely not call this an adjunct lager because they did not “add junk” to it; rather, they brewed it with 100% barley malt.

St. Sebastiaan Grande Reserve
Brouwerij Sterkens N.V. | Meer, Belgium
Purchased @
Kegs & Barrels - Plano, Texas USA
Style: Belgian Strong Ale
Looks and tastes like an amped up apple cider! Gotta love that stone bottle though! Definitely keeping that one for my collection and future re-use!! Very fine all-around Belgian strong ale. Go slow and savor the flavor. This would be excellent when paired up with some wild game!

Weihenstephaner Korbinian
Bayerische Staatsbrauerei Weihenstephan | Freising, Germany
Purchased @
Kegs & Barrels - Plano, Texas USA
Style: Doppelbock
Silky smooth, sweet and sublime from start to finish. Definitely one of the finest doppelbocks from the world’s oldest brewery and one heck of a fine slow-sippin beer! Perfect as a dessert brew. This is one brew that makes me yearn for a trip to Germany to try this brew at its freshest, especially at Oktoberfest!! I can see my “combat-mug” being filled and emptied many times with this delicious beer! Prosit!!

Fuller’s 1845
Fuller Smith & Turner PLC | Chiswick, London, United Kingdom (England)
Purchased @
Kegs & Barrels - Plano, Texas USA
Style: English Strong Ale
Much better than their ESB, this 1845 is absolutely amazing! One of the most flavorful strong ales that I have had in quite a long time! It has a nice warming effect from the alcohol as you savor this brew. Call me ‘strange’ but this would be perfect (for me at least) paired up with some rum cake or a delicious fruit cake!
