It's been corrected to say Japan's EEZ rather than just Japan, which caused a slight panic

Is delicious in its own right and the perfect beer for the circumstances, beginning the cycle anew Also my little German town just opened its own little bike stop bar thing, I'm so happy about this!

Fifteen years ago, I would have made some joke involving Americans not being able to tell beer from pisswater, but now that America actually has a much wider selection of beers with good regional availability, I am at a complete loss for words that people would still call Koelsch a good beer. There's like ONE Koelsch brewery that makes non-poo poo Koelsch. You've got to have a fetish for light beers or something to like the way Koelsch tastes and goes down...and how loving expensive it is. Those "Koelsch Kranz" deals where you get a whole spindle of baby-glasses have some novelty-value, but you're getting poo poo-tier Koelsch for places to offer affordable prices on those. And Jesus Christ, the traditional size of a Koelsch is POINT TWO liters. It's a shot of light beer

Kölsch by most country's standards isn't bad exactly. But when you are in the country that has a reputation for making some of the world's best - and a very well earned reputation at that - not bad is just not enough. Every other place I've tried the local in Germany left it for dead.

I've never had actual Kolsch in Germany so I can't speak to the weird sizing or pricing but... There is a reason that Americans drink lighter beers than you. Well, a lot of reasons but one is that my summer here in the American midwest averages 7°C higher than yours in Germany. Light, crisp lager is a good thing in a hot summer.

There's also stuff called "session" ale/IPA which is like 3-4% because the idea is to allow you to maintain a happy buzz all afternoon without lapsing into drunken immobility. I'm liking what diff breweries are doing with citrusy hop blends, lactobacillus, and sours, but you won't find me turning down a middle of the road Trappist ordering straight out of a monestary.

Listen, I'm not saying that there aren't occasions were lighter beers have their uses (heck, I'm planning on going redneck-tubing with a 30-pack of Keystone light in Oak Creek canyon tomorrow, because it's just lovely enough for the occasion), but we're talking about Koelsch in Cologne here. It's a 0.2l glass of beer in a country where you could get a regular sized, equally mild (not "light" as in watered down) Pilsener for less money-per-volume.

Yah well Germans also drink bottled water non stop despite their tap water being perfectly fine. I think one regions obsession with cute little beer shots can be given a pass

I think Coors Light has the highest ABV of the mass produced light beers

See this is why I don't drink beer. So many different options that everyone cares entirely too much about, and the calories are brutal for the alcohol you get. Gimme cocktails all day instead.

SecDEFs are only as efficient as the POTUS they are serving. Mattis talks a good game and looks the part but ive no faith in a Trump Cabinet when push comes to shove.
