Comment:
I didn’t like this beer very much, it tasted to synthetic. Almost like it was made from chemicals rather then proper ingredients like malt and hops. I actually ended up poring it out in the end. Didn’t enjoy drinking it very much.
I think these beer needs company to be able to work. Any kind of food should work, but don’t expect a Hallelujah moment.
