How to follow up "probably the best beer in the world"? Perhaps with a crisp, fruity, hoppy lager. I guess it is one most of us will never see, and more's the pity. Without Carlsberg written on the label, this would be heralded as an excellent example of the style.

Shikma IPA
The flattest IPA I've ever tasted. If it didn't say IPA on the bottle I've would've thought it was a regular ale. The hop flavors are super dim. Wouldn't buy again

Pretty standard hop-forward commercial lager. Nothing to write home about. But definitely not a bad beer in any sense. I'd buy it again.

Can shared by Cuso. Thin body, medium carbonation. Medium bitterness, light sweetness and astringency. Med-light actual hops flavour, grassy-earthy. Slightly corny. But overall rather clean, drinkable, even if a bit boring.
