I am currently in Singapore and it is by boredom that I'm doing this post.
I've been here for a few weeks and so far, this thing called boredom is doing its thing and is actually getting into me at times.
What I did this week to keep up was go to Giant and took a taste test of the beers in Singapore... Only to be told by a friend that they aren't only locally available here but in the Philippines as well.
Last Saturday evening, I remember to have stocked on this one called Guinness Foreign Extra as recommended by a new friend. Contained in a black "stout" can, I'm just not sure how many ml there was. The beer itself was sort of thick, dark brown and so far the most bitter-tasting I've had. I honestly do not know how I managed to finish my can of it. No more next time for this brand.
On Tuesday, I asked for another recommendation from a friend who's based here in Sg and she said I might like Tiger Lager Beer better. Before anything else, I googled a little bit on what "lager beer" means and this is what I found :
"lager beer"
Its bitterness level was not in any way close to Guinness and somewhere as you gulp you get to taste a certain sweetness. True enough, I give it a thumbs up.
Last one I got was Heineken Lager Beer. I've had it before and I can say it's the best among the ones I've tried. Light, no unusual kick, not too strong for a woman's taste.
Find that beer that suits your taste and share your experience, too. :)
