Yeah I'm fine with that, I was probably thinking more of the Kenyan lager.Like almost everything, international or domestic, it's brewed right here

It's a bit like all the micro brews around, how can they be that much different when it's just lager anyway? The markets a joke. Maybe back when there were fewer brands and/or less global distribution one might have only encountered these lagers when on holiday, adding to the effect of it being special or more different than it actually is.
At the end of the day a crisp, cold, hard earned thirst is all you fuckin bloody need.

Most peeps can't spot any difference after the 3rd beer anyway.

Very possible, my African geography is absolute shit, I see on the wiki page for it it lists maybe a dozen countries where it is brewed. Kenya is not one of them.

It's retarded how much of a long day's work on a hot summer day enhances a beer's flavor.

Temperature is probably more important than the brewery.
Cold bad beer > warm good beer

A bar closeby has a happy hour for Stella on draft, BOGOF. Not bad.

All you're really noticing there is that the colder something gets the less it tastes of anything. Lager is served ice cold to literally make the unpleasant flavour it actually has, go away. This is why real ale drinkers, which is served at room temperature, are the pickiest, snobbiest and most boring drinkers outside of wine drinkers - because they have to actually taste it, so it better be nice.
It's why soft serve ice cream has significantly lower sugar content than normal ice cream - it's served at a higher temperature so it tastes sweeter without having to add more sugar.

Nothing quite tastes like pure masculinity other than the worst beer left out to warm up. Well except maybe cum.

Any beer you guys have had in your life is probably a bad beer for me.

Think about your day.
Have you stamped on a stonefish? Have you wrestled a 'roo?
No?
Then you ain't earned a Vic.

Perhaps I have no motivation to be a man because I can’t get Vick.
Does the man make the beer or the beer make the man?
