Arany Aszok

Yes, this one was a 'super market' pickup! Arany Aszok is a rather nasty and cheap, chemical tasting lager which strangely tastes a lot like Bergenbier! I am going to be bold and assume that it is brewed near the Romanian border? I really do not have much to say about it as it was pretty plain and tasted pretty bad, although it is probably a few notches above the Anna house lager! They do have a wacky website though (http://www.aranyaszok.hu/) and I did manage to find some interesting videos! Enjoy.

The second video does seem to support that suggestion. But not like there is anything 'wrong' with that!

Aaah the simple pleasures to be found in hanging around with your best male buds and downing some long cool drinks. I have to say that the average beer drinking male down the pub doesn't look like that. Is it a life style choice rather than a beer that is being sold? Maybe that was why it tasted so cheap and nasty, you don't drink the stuff, just pose next to it.

First of all, I guess you took a spoiled one, that's why it tasted... er... how did you say... "Chemical".

Second, it's really an ale, not a lager. This fact describes how familiar you are with beer types paired with tastes.

It's quite cheap as well. In case of buying a fresh one, you'd experience that it's a lightly tasted typical ale, that's "sweetish bitter with mild bittery and slightly metallic aftertaste".

Anyway, a good tip is to choose the bottled one.

If you are looking for a real chemical tasted real lager, buy a bottle of Löwenbrau.

Oh, yeah, and never forget to chill your beer before drinking.

Anon. I didn't take a spoiled one, its just a mass produced lager and not a very nice one. It is a lager and not an ale, its actually a pilsner and is sold as such. It is most certainly brewed with a bottom fermenting yeast, which makes it a lager.
Its brewed by Dreher.
