also the flavorings in soju are 100% proprietary and p. iconic in korea
also incredibly hangover-inducing
it's like saying "i have a bunch of coca leaves and kola nuts here, you can make coca-cola with that, carbonated water and some corn syrup right"
the grapefruit and apple ones own bones, but I can't find them in the US :qq:

the best booze doesn't come here
that's just something we need to get out of the way, in this thread, right now

also, booze here is largely overpriced

due to your friendly neighborhood congress men, and women

Booze is cheap as hell even in my high-priced, west coast, liberal elite neighborhood. I can get extremely good, strong, all-American liquor for $20 a bottle after tax, half as much if I'm not feeling choosy.

I wouldn't be too concerned about the absence of a particular 20% abv liqueur myself.

it's the best gin that you're almost guaranteed to find in every bar. I think tanqueray is not great and kinda oily somehow

most every grocery store that can sell liquor and has a walk in fridge is gonna sell Chimay and you should try that at least. I like the blue label.

i've heard that st. bernardus abbt 12 is the exact same thing as westy 12, except far easier to find and drink and much cheaper. also it's not technically trappist

Anyhow, this is in a gangnam convenience store so it's ripoff prices

Coke is 500ml and the soju is 400ml so actually per ml i think it's the same price

Lol

On the chest of a barmaid in Sale, were tattooed the prices of ale. And on her behind for the sake of the blind, was the same information in braille.

wicked weed has sold out to the man

luckily there's like a billion great breweries in this town but still. dang

get that OUT of my face
Feb 10, 2007

why does AB-InBev only buy a single microbrewery in a given city and region? they've bought Goose Island in Chicago, Blue Point in Long Island/NYC area, TenBarrel in Oregon, Elysian in Seattle, and now Wicked Weed in Asheville. i'm probably missing more but those are the ones that i know about. i imagine that there's a deliberate reason for it, but i can't put my finger on why

sam calagione, who's always been one of the loudest voices in the craft beer world against selling out, hates these buyouts because it allows AB-InBev to sell the acquired beers for cheaper even though they by and large keep their beers intact, effectively undercutting the competition. that's gotta be why they're doing that, right? the only microbrewery i've seen gone national under their umbrella is Goose Island and even then, it's just a select few beers
