pimeys , an Memes in water...
@pimeys@lemmy.nauk.io avatar

Well... I'm still in the US, and on this trip I mostly just get a Budweiser or Modelo when I want a beer. I feel like I don't need to make a scene about the beer I drink, because a beer is a beer... I also enjoyed Coors Banquet a lot.

Wines are a different matter. In the Oregon vineyards I've had some of the best pinots I've ever tasted, much better than the pinots I've had in France. One of the best things on this trip was our day of tastings in the different wineries.

It is a good shitpost though. Fry holding a German lager on Jimmy Fallon, and a joke about American beer with a typo.

It is very hard to brew a good lager, like the good Helles style famously brewed in Bavaria. I've been on a mission every time I come to the US to find good Helles, and I found two places that get very close:

This place in Seattle: https://maps.app.goo.gl/czPMtm4xkunkopEc8

And this in Weaverville: https://maps.app.goo.gl/wuNS33EcQ1qC9zfb9

But quite often even if they advertise the beer as German style Helles, it has some quality that makes it very different. Usually it's sweet or even hoppy. I think for an american a special beer should have a special taste, but a good Helles is just very fresh and crisp beer.

Edit: and Becks is one of the worst beers in Germany in my opinion... At least nobody tries to sell overpriced Sternburg here.

A classic Monty Python joke from Live at the Hollywood Bowl. Definitely some truth in this... I live in Germany with some of the best lagers in the world, and having a Miller Light for the first time was a really weird experience.

Now when I've visited the US quite a few times, I can say I dislike the expensive craft beers way more compared to the classic american lagers... They are way too hoppy, but the worst thing is how much more expensive they are! Like a pale ale can be over ten dollars, but a pint of PBR is 3.50. Beer should be cheap, and I don't really like how this craft beer culture made the prices go so high.

It is such a beautiful system too. I would love to use it more, but nix and NixOS have kind of ruined every other operating system for me...

If you follow a certain orange website, until very recently there's been a big group of apologists who protect the big and mighty if any bad news surfaced.

This has started to change, but the change is very recent. And in the startup ecosystem using a Mac is a standard and if you do not like them, you are considered weird and the latest social note keeping tool everybody else uses in the company has severe bugs on Linux, if it even works.

Just a glass full of crushed ice and drink your water like a true American 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

But to be serious, I'd like to have a water filter in my fridge. The water here has a bit too much calc to my taste.

Come to Germany, the only country in the EU where paper usage is still going UP.
