Zlatý Bažant's Golden Pheasant Pilsner

Zlatý Bažant lead the NHL in assists in the 1979 season playing for the Hartford Whalers, or it's the Slovakian translation for "Golden Pheasant". This pilsner started out in 1969 when Neil Armstrong landed on the moon and shouted "Party Time!!!" Buzz Aldren, more or less, opened his cooler with this new fangled brew and Neil Armstrong was like, "Man, you must be Buzz'ed if you think I'm drinking this commie, hippy horseshit." And with that, he tossed it down to New York and it extinguished a fire set upon Jimi Hendrix's guitar. Then the Slovaks were like, "You can't buy that marketing!" And then Jimi wailed!

This pilsner, with the obvious exception of ripping off the look of Pilsner Urquell, is a pretty good beer. Very mild smell, and a great, refreshing taste. I sorta dig this brewery line for one simple reason; their light beer is 4.3% ABV, which is stronger than most brewery's regular beers. However, I'm covering their original which has an ABV of 5.0%; not too shabby. I paid $3.00 for 500mL at the party store, so it isn't a huge rip off, and for the taste it's definitely worth a try.

Unfortunately, in 1995 Heineken, the abusive babysitter of Europe, bought out the brewery and choked the pheasant of it's own free will. The website says it was a "blessing" but I think Harold Heineken designed the website and writes the checks. Sidenote: If they ever have throwback cans, I'm TOTALLY in!

Baltic Beverage's Kalnapilis Lager

The pride of Lithuania! Or so their website claims. They keep talking as if there are millions of breweries in Lithuania and Kalnapilis is beating each million in every category ever. I mean how many breweries can there be in Lithuania? Well I checked and there's about four of them. Dare I say though, that this beer is, as Tourette's Guy would say, "Pretty Good".

It's a very light colored beer. It also smells like beer, ya know, beer? It isn't much to write home about but it goes down pretty smooth and also has an almost citrus taste to it. This brewery makes about 10 different beers, so I went with the original with an ABV of 5.0%. This was three bucks for a 500mL bottle and since their website is written in Lithuanian, it's hard to decipher, but I'm pretty sure it says something about drinking like a dozen of these and going to Taco Bell. You can translate it, but what fun is there in that?

If you drink enough of these boys you might start shaving your head and dressing like this. The bottle is pretty cool. It's green, ya know, and has a red triangle on it which I assume means Albert Foight, the founder, was a huge advocate of Zelda. He initially called it "Bergschlösschen" meaning "castle on the hill", but when he realized there wasn't a "ö" on his dingus laptop, he changed it to Kalnapilis, the Lithuanian equivalent of the original German name. Apparently this is the Lithuanian equivalent of Gatorade and may have promoted by Kurt Rambis.

Carlsberg Brewery's Baltika Dark Lager

From the largest brewery in Eastern Europe and second largest, after Heineken, in all of Europe, I present Baltika Dark Lager. At first glance the beer appears to have a nice head on it so you think this lager might be a little heavier than most, which excited me, however, after the first sip, the flavor of the beer almost completely disappeared from my mouth. Actually, the more beer you drink, the more it stays in your mouth, so be patient when drinking. It has the smell of a overly sugary beer but rest assured, this lager does not have a lasting taste that will make your face cringe like getting a kiss from your old ass grandma. The taste is surprisingly light for such a dark beer, but average for a typical lager; maybe below average actually. The dark appearance and sweet smell are typical of the rye and caramel malts used in this Russian lager.

Apparently, this is the biggest beer export out of Russia, though I couldn't imagine Ovechkin or Ivan Drago slamming this beer down. They got like a dozen beers, and they numbered them, hence the 4 on the label. This is actually a really boring beer in general. Even the history of the beer and label and the taste is all bland. It's like reading stereo instructions. Like, I can't even make any jokes about it and it sort of bothers me. I mean it's 5.6% ABV which is above average and it only cost me $2.50 for a 500mL bottle. So I mean the potential is there to get more wrecked than Alexander Ovechkin at the NHL Skills Competition. This isn't a bad investment if your looking to get pretty drunk for cheap actually. It's stronger than average and not too bad tasting and cheaper than most hookers.

Yuengling Lager

Wow. This feels wrong. This is like someone asked me to review my own kid or something (that little guy gets a 6/10 - he's docked for not taking the trash out when I ask him). Yuengling Lager really is like a child of mine. One that I can drink out of a keg and enjoy with a porkchop dinner. I mean, it's Yuengling, c'mon now. It's as Pennsylvanian as highway construction and MTOs. Brewed in Pottsville, PA, it is made by America's oldest brewery. It was first brewed in 1829! 1829! That was the year the typewriter was invented for cripes sakes! Americans have been drinking Yuengling as long as they have been using robots to write letters. This beer has it all - taste, value, flavor, value, fun, value, vigor, and value. Tastes fantastic from the first to the last drop. Two knocks on Yuengling though - when it is skunked, it is SKUNKED. Stinky dinky skunked. And the distribution is very very odd (sold in Florida, but not in Ohio? wtf? what kind of deal did D.G. Yuengling & Son strike with Jeb Bush to make that happen?). But drink it in a state that sells it, while it is still fresh, on a hot summer night or a cold winter morning, and you are hard pressed to find a better beer, bar none. Damn straight.

Krusovice's Imperial Pilsner

It's the first heat wave in New England and when you can't take anymore naps to avoid the heat and your body is thoroughly dehydrated, you look in the refrigerator for a tall, refreshing way to beat the heat. Then you grab your Krusovice Imperial Pilsner. I always liked pilsners because you get do drink them, toss the bottles and shout "Pillsneerrrrrrrrr!" much like lumberjacks yell "Timmbbeerrrrrr" when they chop down a tree; and who doesn't like lumberjacks, you square!

So in 1581, this brewery was allowed to give beer to the archduke of Austria, Rudy II, cousin of Johnny 5. This guy is actually a bit ridiculous. He received the title of Holy Roman Emperor from the pope, was the king of Hungary, Croatia, AND Bohemia, which isn't around anymore. This dude got around and was a huge advocate on the art, which you could tell from his frilly pantaloons and apparently did some serious shit to stir up the 30 year war. So he was like "Yeah, gimme booze and you can use the crown in the label". So they did.

This brewery got bought out by Heineken (surprise surprise) in 2007 and has like, 8 different types of booze. This being their pilsner. Like I said, it's pretty good. It's got a 5.0% ABV which puts in in the running on levels of PBR and Narragansett, but way better crisp refreshing tastes that you would expect from a pilsner. It's a pretty decent bargain; I got 500mL for $2.50. It goes down smooth and leaves a nice, lasting flavor of beer in the mouth, so you can appreciate the taste in between sips. Not the kinda beer you wanna drink while your driving though. It sorta looks fancy too; like a bottle of cheap champagne, which is still fancy. If you were caught drinking this down the street there's a good chance you'd get mistaken for Will Smith.

Pabst's Old Milwaukee Lager

Picture this: You are in a bar where smoking is still allowed, a shitty cover band is playing hits from the seventies (and does an abnormally awesome cover of Free's "All Right Now", a 42 year old woman of the night hits on your buddy and he carefully rejects her in the most fashionable way possible (giving the name of one of your other friends). It's warm and your throat is a little sore and you hand grabs a for your drink. The beads of condensation soak your hand as you pick up your 16 oz baby and take in the ambiance from a far. Mmm. Sweet delicious Old Milwaukee.

As far as American Lagers, is one really that far different than another. So holding up this true blue beauty with American Pride, unlike people drinking Budweiser, that communist Belgian beer. With every sip you feel Bruce Springsteen course through your veins cuz this beer is for the American working man. I got pounders of this last weekend for the cool price of $2.50 and at 4.6% ABV this sucker is a better bargain than those sissy light beers. You can knock these back abnormally easy and fast. Don't get sucked up into the facade that it's only for old people and tastes like rat's blood; it's really not that bad. It shits curb appeal and is as refreshing as other American lagers. Any when your old lady is giving you flack, you can always utter to her "Less Talkie, More Waukee!". It works half the time, every time!

Simplier Times' Lager

Sometimes I like to say that I wished I lived back in the day, you know, when things were a little simpler. Back before iPads, Facebook, and modern vaccination schedules. Life probably moved at a slower pace and there was less crap to be deluged with on a minute-to-minute basis. However, if this is the beer they drank back in those so-called simpler times, count me out. I'll take global warming and over-population for a better tasting beer. Simpler Times Lager has a strong, awful, almost sour taste to it on first taste, which could be the above-average 6.2% alcohol making itself known. Or it could be the below-average quality beer coming out of the can. As far I as I can tell, it is only sold at Trader Joe's (both in CA and NC), for the amazing low price of $3.99 / six-pack. According to the can, it has been around since 1846. Pabst Blue Ribbon has been around since 1844, and has at least won a single god-damned award. That's one more than Simpler Times Lager has won. The next time you are in the market for a low-cost American style lager, choose the Ribbon. Even if it is a total hipster beer now that is sold at Whole Foods with a sense of irony, its still more complex and better than Simpler Times.

Elbrewery's Hevelius Kaper Lager

At first sniff you can tell this beer was brewed purposefully to get you jack hammered. The aroma is very sweet; and sugar is a main contributor to alcohol strength. Too afraid to sip this 8.7% ABV beauty, I peruse the label; no men with mustaches (minus one). This beer is from Poland and it's called Hevelius Kaper from Elbrewery; not to be mistaken with Mexico's El Brewery. It was named after the Johannes Helvelius, who was clearly once mayor of Danzig. (I wish I was lying about this.) He called it Mother's Milk (made that up) and once proclaimed it was "Not of this World" (Also, made up). After taking a sip it's clear that this is not meant for you standard European Nobleman. It doesn't taste like a "bad" beer that's 8.7%, but it definitely tastes like it's 8.7% in a bad way. This Johannes Hevelius actually sounds like a legit character; he was in cahoots with Sobiesky who you might remember from this, but this is not about men who both had astonishing mustaches, this is about beer. Based from the bottle is distributed by the Zyweic group. I'm not gonna lie, this lager is nearly undrinkable. This is one of those things you might see a hozo buy (half hobo, half bozo) and since a 500mL bottle was only two bones and some quarters, not unbelievable. If you need to get a buzz real fast and also wanna look interesting, invest in this, otherwise, you are better off drinking something else. A swing and a miss for Poland on this "Devil's Plaything".

Weihenstephaner's Original Lager

This was actually Jesus's favorite beer. Founded in 620 AD, (you know it's old when you have to note AD) this is the oldest brewery in the world, though documentation only proves it to be in existence since 768 AD. This pup is a 5.1% ABV and is actually one of the best tasting lagers I've ever had. Really smooth and great tasting; I mean there isn't a bitter taste going down your throat. It's like if God melted his golden Pegasus Unicorn down to it's hooves and took it's melted remains into his Holy Grail for Indiana Jones to find years later with Sean Connery and Gimli from Lord of the Rings. Well, maybe not that good, but it's truly a fantastic lager! I bought this because it was only $3 for 500mL and it said it was the world's oldest brewery (still in existence). Now there's nothing too fancy about a lager but if you want a crisp, refreshing taste of Bavaria, I'd definitely suggest this. Good stuff!

Carlsberg Brewery's Okocim Malt Liquor

So dig this. Okocim used to rock it's own brewery then Carlsberg acquired, like, in the 90's, so that Okocim can brew Carlsberg, which sounds like a bunch of feel loving hogwash, if you ask me. When I think of malt liquor I think of the typical Colt 45, or maybe some Old English 40's, of Mickey's...and then mornings bombarded with severe headaches and patches of lost consciousness. This has a stronger taste than other Polish beers but it's actually pretty good stuff. It doesn't leave an overbearing taste in your mouth. I wouldn't make out with a buncha chicks after this, and probably wouldn't be very successful in the process, but I can easily tear through a sixer of this real easy at the bowling alley, which could be devastating given its 7.0% ABV. The price is definitely right; I paid three Washingtons for 500mL. I liked the bottle because it reminded me on IBC root beer; and I love root beer. But don't be confused, this is regular beer; it gets you drunk, and its cheaper and IBC root beer. I'm tabbing a big W on this one but it could really use a guy with a mustache on the label.

Tyskie Brewery's Pale Lager

It's reassuring that you are relieved when you're reviewing a beer it's only 5.6% ABV, which is the case when you go on a hard bender of Polish beers. This pale lager is in direct competition with Poland's largest beer Zyweic. This has a crisper, more refreshing taste yet a but of a different after taste, that isn't necessarily bad, just necessarily different. The crown on the label is in regard to King Sobiesky, the first king of Poland to never sit on this throne sober, or something like that. He might have been born the same year as the beer was first brewed. But that story makes less sense because babies can't even drink that much; so why name a dumb baby after your beer. That baby did end up growing a wicked mustache (not seen on label). I clicked on a link of his wife, figuring she was really hot, but I guess King Soberesky wasn't so sober when he married her. Apparently she was a great cook though, receiving the highest honor from Emerial Lagasse in 1781 during the French Revolution...or something like that. She also kept a very clean castle and later invented the first vacuum cleaner using her maiden name, Hoover...or something like that.

Warka Brewery's Strong Lager

This is another quality beer coming out of Poland. It's hits an ABV at 7.0% which is pretty high; hence the name "Strong". This was originally it's own brewery until it was bought out by Zyweic which was later bought out by Heineken. This stuff is pretty legit for a Strong Beer. It's a family beer which means it comes in Strong (for you), Regular (for your little brother), and Light (for your 10 year old sister). For having a 7.0% ABV it doesn't overpower you like Beast Ice or beverages similar to; but you can certainly tell after a few of them you're gonna be called Johnny Blotto by your friends and screaming "Warka Warka" like this guy. The price was very reasonable at $1.99 for 500mL. I'd pay that much for an empty bottle of that Edgar Allen Poe looking stooge on the label. When in doubt, always buy a beer with a man on the label with a mustache. But that's boozehound tip #1. But no bitter smell and a little aftertaste that assures you that after 2.0L of this stuff, you're clothes are coming off.

Zywiec's Pale Lager

So to cut to the chase about this brew-ha-ha, WW2 happened and now it's Poland's and like all breweries in Europe, eventually bought out by Heineken. Now for the good stuff. In this corner, tipping the scales at 5.6% ABV, Zyweic Pale Lager (also available in light for your mom). The natural attraction to this baby is clearly the jovial folks prancing like doped-up indians on the label. I sorta felt it'd be the sorta thing that would make me dance, or what I would drink after dancing. Needless to say, I didn't dance but did cook up two hot Italian sausages that complimented the beer finely. This is "apparently" Poland's number 1 beer but if that's any indication like Bud is the number 1 beer in the U.S.A. I'm not buying into it. It's not too bad though, I got 500mL for 3 bucks at the party store any I think I could knock down about three until swithcing over to something a little fuller bodied. In comparison to other lagers, it is very crisp and refreshing. I does leave a little taste in your mouth but I mean, ya know, what are you gonna do? Pretty good by lager standards though.

Whaler Ale

There's actually very little I can say about this beer. No waitress or anyone in Connecticut could tell me anything about this beer. It tastes like a very poor pale ale and leaves a watered down taste in your mouth. I paid $3.50 for a pint at the bar and that was average for the import rivaling this brew. In conclusion, it tasted watered down and barely inappropriate to even review. No lasting ale smell or flavor and overpriced for what it was. It does go down easier than a dark beer but nothing that any lighter beer can get you away from.

Ever sitting at home, watching baseball, and say "Man..I wish i could TASTE a sport right now!"? Yahtzee, dickhead. This 'merican ale brings the noise. You can taste the hot dogs, cigar smoke, and popcorn from every baseball game in each sip of this 5.0% ABV ale and you'll love every minute of it. A crisp, cool ale, this beer allows a generous consumption without the fullness a Brooklyn Brown would give. Caught it at bar price for 3.75 a bottle, so you're looking at about 10 bucks per 6er at real stores not in Pennsylvania. Perfect Sunday afternoon Pittsburgh Pirate game mind eraser.

I like a nice, wheat beer probably more than the average man. However, I do not have the physical characteristics to really hold my own when someone challenges my masculinity when I put fruit in my beer. Do you know what soothes a black eye and a broken ego? Harpoon's UFO White!

It hails from Boston, Massachusetts and the UFO stands for UnFiltered Offerings, in case you wondered. I don't typically care for most white hefeweissens but this one turns the tables. And if you stick a little orange in it like it was a stuffed pig, you're gravy baby. These are ideal on hot days outside when people are usually doing work. It's a crispy, light, cloudy beer that you can basically drink, like, a few dozen of and not realize it until you stand up. But be careful because it is 4.8% ABV. It's a little pricier than your Buds and Coors but reasonable when you want a beer with flavor. It'll run you around $9.00 for a sixer but well worth it. So as long as you're cool with people giving you flack about putting fruit in your beer, pick it up. I suggest learning a lot of witty insults before bringing this to a tailgate party and stuff.

Picture this: It's hot outside. Like, too hot to breathe, butt sticking to the couch, don't want to waste energy lifting the remote hot. But, being a real living, breathing American, you still want to get a solid fade on. Bud Light won't do on a day hotter than Hades and anything heavy and dark makes you vomit on yourself. That's where Leinenkugel's Summer Shandy comes bursting through your wall like the KoolAid guy, except less kid friendly and more likely to get you drunk. I was skeptical. I hate the concept of seasonal beers, but this fruity beer straight outta Wisconsin really hits the spot during a solid afternoon of sitting on your ass at the beach listening to this. It probably tastes really good while you're mowing the lawn or whitewashing a fence, but I'm not a dad and tend to avoid things like that. At 4.2% ABV, you can come close to drinking 100 of these suckers without even worrying about the consequences. I was a little skeptical of a lemonade beer, mostly because 98% of fruit beers are stupid, but this is legit. It's the safer alternative to grain alcohol and lemonade, too. It comes in cans, allegedly, although I've only seen bottles. I picked up a 6er at Giant Eagle for about 10 bucks, and it's worth it. Instant cred with the ladies, too. And the sixer's empty cause we drank em all, ya turkey.

Bombay Brewery's Flying Horse Royal Lager

Prepare yourself for royalty. This "royal" beer "technically" allows you to act like a king or queen and boss your friends around for the duration or your libation consumption. And if they aren't sure you are royalty, they might get an idea with your gold grill (if you don't take care taking the gold foil on the bottle top). This lager is an export out of India, pushing the scales at a 4.7% ABV. In typical lager fashion, it's not too heavy and you can knock down these puppies pretty quick and you'll be slurring kingly advice to anyone who will listen to you in no time. If you noticed there's a little card around the neck of the bottle. This makes it look classy but all it really is telling you to chill it and drink it. Not exactly rocket science. It's a pretty good bargain though; I picked this double-deuce for $3.49 and if I drank 4 of em, I'd probably be flying pretty high myself. It does have a sorta odd lagery aftertaste that most crisp lagers don't leave behind; but if you love the taste of lagers, you might wanna try this out. You should try it regardless because its the best chance you'll have to look tough drinking something with a Pegasus on it.

Yuengling's Black and Tan

It's not very often beer is delicious and good for you, and this is no exception. Though I can't really say ANY beer is good for you; but this is plenty delicious. Yuengling is the oldest brewery in the United States and second in North America behind Molston. Yuengling black is tan is a mixture of their porter (60%) and Premium Pilsner (the rest) that came out in 1986, supposedly replacing their "Half and Half", which was half porter and half Lord Chesterfield Ale. It has a smooth taste and is not overbearing on the heavy, but after drinking a dozen of these you aren't gonna outrun any cops so just keep it cool, cowboy. It does leave a little taste in your mouth but only a lasting flavor of deliciousness and has the smell of angels, literally. You're not gonna be chugging this and is best sipped on in from of a campfire or woodburning stove listening to James Taylor with a Backwoods in your hand. Most black and tans you'll come across are mixed at a bar with Bass and Guinness and taste pretty darn good, but this one is premixed and is absolutely lovely, though due to shipping restrictions, is rare to come across west of the Mississippi. You can get this for less than $20.00 a case and has an ABV at 4.7%. It's definitely a nice dark beer to have to switch it up from a typical lager or ale.

Julius Echter's Hefe-Weiss-Dunkel

Time for school boys. This Dunkelweizen is typical of your German beers. Breaking it down on the dancefloor, The Hefe-weiss refers to the Wheat, and Dunkel is the Dark. So what you got is dark, wheat beer. It has the bitter hops, though not overly obnoxious like a "hoppy beer" and a smooth taste like most dark beers. If you were blindfolded and beaten you might confuse it with an IPA, though it'd be hard to make much sense outta your ugly, beaten mouth. It definitely has an aftertaste so I wouldn't suggest any more than 1 or 2 at a time. If you slam these suckers all night you're a better man than me. For what it is, based of the classy bearded chap on the label, it's a pretty good bargain. I picked up 500mL for $4, however it tastes stronger than it actually is, a mere 4.9% ABV. I wouldn't rush to get this again, but it definitely doesn't taste like a mouthful of poop, to put it poetically.

The Narragansett Lager

Originally founded in Rhode Island, the lager and the light are produced in New York and the porter and bock are produced in Rhode Island to this day. This review is about the lager however. These puppies run me $2 at the bar, aka the cheapest beer they have. The rest of their beer is about $4 a pint so you can imagine it doesn't take a quantum physicist to realize this guy is a bargain. Also this stuff has a 5.0 ABV, which means it can lay a thick layer of "blat" on your evening, which is usually pretty rad. The bad news is that I typically get a sore throat the next morning after downing 7 or more or these bad bastards. Not sure why, but I do. Also, when ordering, call them "'Gansetts" or you'll stick out more than Orlando Bloom and a Straight Pride Parade.

They go down pretty quick and don't taste too bad but you will regret downing a dozen of them the next day; no doubt about that.

Great Lakes Brewing Co. Commodore Perry

Named after a character from the past/weird hick high school in Northwest PA, this hoppy IPA is pretty awesome and probably would taste delicious accompanied by a hot dog. It's light bodied enough where I could probably down about 8 during a hockey game that ends in regulation without a one-way ticket to Vomitville, USA. I found this in the back of my dad's fridge, so I can't really vouch for price, but I vaguely remember buying a 6er of Great Lakes Burning River for about 8.99. At 7.5% ABV, it's got some bang for your buck and doesn't taste like a dirty diaper. Bonus feature: It has a pretty wicked picture of the War of 1812 on the label. Super big caveat: It comes from Cleveland. That place was so dirty the water caught on fire, y'all.

Well's Bombardier

Well's Bombardier Ale hails from the United States' stepdad, England. The bottle has an alcohol percentage of 5.2%. (the cans, designed for women, are merely 4.3%) This is a typical ale. It has a crisp taste and leaves no aftertaste in your mouth. It's cool and refreshing and tastes like Budweiser if Budweiser made a beer that didn't leave a sweatsock taste in your mouth after sipping. It's definitely a lighter beer that you can drink 15 of and still run away from all the fights you start and jump over a fence without bothering your stomach. I picked up 500mL for about five bucks.
