Going to a New Year’s party this weekend- the host is the child of immigrants from China.

I cannot decide between bringing decent baijiu or a bunch of Red Star.

Tsingtao is the only decent beer in China because the brewery was founded by Germans.

The Uyghur beer is better for a generic lager, I forget the name. The Tsingtao hefeweizen was pretty good though.

I've also heard getting a bag of Tsingtao at the original brewery is much different and better.

This is in the US, and I specifically want to bring baijiu because I have a love-hate thing with it. In the last thread I think I said I still had diarrhea from baijiu I drank seven years earlier.

yeah the unfiltered beer at the tsingtao brewery is p decent. their other beers are alright but mostly because they're dirt cheap (also i love getting big plastic bags of beer in china, it's like a superior version of canadian milk)

sadly craft beer in china is still a pain in the rear end to get because of minimum production requirements, though i did find some good foreign beers at random coffeeshops??? like a few nice pohjala stouts in wuhan

the south korean beer scene is much more interesting nowadays, idk about taiwan (hong kong is also cool and good)

What’s up with that anyway, I’ve been seeing big Tsingtao displays at Whole Foods and Costco lately. Lucky Buddha is the most fun due to the bottle but if I’m going to drink Chinese piss beer I am partial to Yanjing.

Snow is the semi-flavoured water I drank when I had to drink baijiu and needed something to flush my mouth without it being flavourless and also needing to be nominally alcoholic so I wasn’t bullied by the other businessmen.

E: to be clear, I wasn’t given any other choice of beer

Way too used to the OSHA thread and expecting some disaster (especially with folks leaning over it in the beginning). Was very pleasantly surprised.

The uruk-hai defender has logged on.
The team said that Messi was recovering from an injury and advised not to play. He was there, he was just kept on the bench. If that's true then of course you wouldn't endanger one of the most valuable athletes in the world for an exhibition match.
