Beer Me – Czechia Edition

Clint R — Sun, 30 Jul 2023 13:00:00 +0000

Like Germany, Czechia is another country in Europe making a claim as the land of “the original beer.” Brewing in the country dates back as far as the year 993, and the tradition continues into the modern era. Also like Germany, you won’t find as many “craft” breweries in the American style in Prague. These […]

Beer Me – Deutschland Edition

Clint R — Sun, 09 Jul 2023 13:00:00 +0000

Germany is one of those countries (yes there are several) claiming status as the “birthplace” of beer and brewing. Indeed, there are many breweries in the country founded before the discovery of America. Further, while there are a few beers you can easily find throughout the nation, most often you’ll find each region, city, or […]

Beer Me – Japan Edition

Clint R — Sun, 04 Jun 2023 13:00:00 +0000

The beer story in Japan was something of a mixed bag. After discovering a thriving and incredible craft beer scene in Korea, I had high hopes going in. While Japan did not disappoint in terms of the craft beer scene, it was not on the same scale as I found in Korea. Japanese craft breweries […]

Beer Me – Korea Edition

We’ve been pleasantly surprised with the craft beer scene in several countries throughout Asia, but after all our sampling would have to say Korea’s is the best. There is a wide selection of “domestic” type beers in Korea – Cass, Hite, Kloud – available at convenience stores and pretty much every restaurant/bar. These are all […]

Beer Me – Philippines Edition

Clint R — Sat, 25 Mar 2023 13:00:00 +0000

Our global beer tour did not stop in the Philippines, though it was unfortunately cut short by my foot injury – once antibiotics began, alcohol consumption ceased. Fortunately we had plenty of time to sample local beers before the injury occurred. The Philippines is similar to many countries in SEA with just a few “main” […]

Beer Me – Vietnam Edition

Clint R — Fri, 03 Mar 2023 13:00:00 +0000

The beer experiencer in Vietnam was an interesting one. Firstly, this is yet another country in Southeast Asia which is dominated by a small number of beer brands. Despite this, there is still a surprising amount of variety to be found. The two main beers are associated with the major cities in the north and […]

Beer Me – Thailand Edition

Clint R — Sun, 05 Feb 2023 14:00:00 +0000

The unofficial global beer tour continues with Thailand, the 7th country on our trip. Thailand – like most other nations in Southeast Asia (and indeed, the world) – is dominated by a few large beer brands you’ll find pretty much everywhere. In Thailand, the major players are Chang, Singha, and Leo. (We mainly drank Chang). […]

Beer Me – Bali Edition

Clint R — Wed, 21 Dec 2022 13:00:00 +0000

Continuing our tour of beers across the globe with our stop in Bali. Indonesia is one of those “one national beer” countries – in this case the brand is Bintang. You can generally find Heineken at most places (as with most of the world) and there is a small but growing craft beer movement in […]

Beer Me – Singapore Edition

Clint R — Mon, 21 Nov 2022 14:00:00 +0000

Another country, another set of beers to explore! Singapore was a bit of a mixture on the beer front – while they do have their “standard” beers throughout the country (most often seen is Tiger), there is also a pretty lively craft brewing scene which was a pleasant surprise! Craft brewing is actually having a […]

Beer Me – New Zealand Edition

Clint R — Thu, 10 Nov 2022 13:00:00 +0000

We continued the trend of drinking beer in every country on our trip – 60 days in New Zealand gave us a lot of time to sample the product! In addition to its famous wine-growing regions, New Zealand is also home to a climate very well-suited to growing hops. As a result, the country is […]
