So, you wanted an ideal summer beer. This comes very close. Tasting like a hybrid between 1980s Miller and Coors, it is an American adjunct beer which favors the barley flavor but keeps the easy drinking sweet soft texture of Murkan beer.

When you travel through Germany, you encounter many cities and towns each with their own local brewery, and they all make beer slightly differently. Like Warsteiner, Wernesgrüner Pils Legende offers a light beer with a slight spicy malt flavor and relatively low sweetness.

If you are stuck in Houston, more pity to you. It has renown only for being less suck than Austin, Dallas, and San Antonio, and less hipster than Marfa or Marble Falls. But if you like hot, wet, and flat places which are more international than the UN, it might warm your heart.

It baffles the mind as to why someone would try to open a killer pub in Houston, but Cecil’s Pub comes from an older time, when Houston had culture (Anglo nerd pioneer cowboy) and was a small city instead of the place people go when they fail in Los Angeles and New York.

Chinese products often imitate and build upon those in the West, and Tsingtao improves upon the American adjunct lager — beer made with rice or corn as the primary fermenting grains — by making a lighter, cereal-like version of Corona Extra with a little fizz and spice to keep it interesting.

Wait, where are the metal reviews? you ask. Metal is dead with a few exceptions, and while we wait for those to come along, we eugenically remove lies and promote related things which may show you the emerging culture of resistance to herd logic.

Comically, a revered microbrewery decided to make a Steel Reserve clone, but use upscale ingredients like a restaurants in the Heights would, of course. And so you have “Flaked Maize” instead of the surplus corn that built the malt liquor industry.

Another one of those nice 1980s American adjunct beers, Karbach Crawford Bock tastes like old school Budweiser complete with faint overtones of squash decay and vinegar bitterness, but mostly a sweetness and easy of consumption that makes it hard to choke down like Coke or Sprite.

Famous for its bitter hipster IPAs, Karbach Brewing Company attempts something slightly different with this beer, a wheat and barley based adjunct beer that like Modelo Especial, delivers a thin but pleasant taste, although in this case, without undo sweetness, fermentation artifacts, or bitterness.

Upon first taste, 1980s Michelob; middle-taste is a little bit sweeter; finishing taste has more citrus and a fizzy, spicy lingering hybrid of aroma and flavor. This beer goes down easy because nothing in its taste profile conflicts with the rest of its flavor edifice.
