I thought about getting the Sinha Stout many times although I remain hesitant since it seems that NOBODY buys the stuff.

Don't trust the philistines cause all they get is Molson and Labatt and think Heineken and Corona is the good stuff that should be saved for special occasions. I guess most of us were one of these unfortunate people at some point in our lives.

Sometimes, if no one is looking, I'm quite partial to Zywiec. You should try that.


Zywiec is an abominable, metallic tasting beer and I'm Polish. As most Polish beers it is owned by forgein interests, in this case Heineken. I would steer clear of mass produced Polish beers and instead opt for their world class vodkas (Chopin, Belvedere and Zubrowka being my favs). But hey, it doesn't hurt to try I suppose. Although from the TS' list at the beginning, I suspect lagers and pilsners are not going to be up his alley. For me, they're good thirst quenchers on a hot day and nothing else.
