[ATTACH]261504[/ATTACH] 4% macro lager from DB breweries.  DB is one if the two major macro breweries here in NZ. It's also the crappiest. I have reviewed Monteith's from them which is decent and Tuatara which is underwhelming. Those are the best of a crap range.  Well expectations were rock bottom for this one. Poured a meh brown colour and smelt like the 1980's. Childhood memories of cigarette smoke infused bowling club crossed with wet mop smell.  Expectations were exceeded but not by much. Was expecting a 2/10 or a 3/10 but I almost finished the can which is a 4/10. Mr sink helped me finish it. I almost felt sorry for the drain.  Well so far Victoria Bitter (VB) is the best of the worst and it's stronger. It's also Australian their crap beer marginally better than ours.  Also drunk it after burger and fries. Figured being thirsty would help. Picked up a solo can for around $1.50 usd it normally retails for around $15 usd for 18. When you can get a dozen Eurolagers (stronger, bigger bottles 15 standard drinks vs 18) for around $12-13 this beer is kinda pointless.  4/10 expectation was a 3. Best case scenario hot summer day, ice cold, ear something salty and drunk on something else might be able to chug this. Baltika 9 has disappeared from the shelves but each can is 5.7 drinks and you can get 4 900ml cans for same price as 18 of these. B9 isn't great but if you want to get plonked for lowest price you can this beer fails that test as well. B9 is also better. I think this is the worst beer I've reviewed I normally avoid the slop. I haven't drunk it for so long I figured what the hell. Single can was the same price as a cheap 500ml German pilsner.[URL unfurl="true"]https://www.beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/2064/28567/[/URL] Even as a student would not drink this. 1 dozen cheap German pilsners is almost 24 standard drinks vs 18 and tastes a hell of a lot better. Same price as an 18 pack. Scary thing is. There's worse beers than this. Budweiser murders it.</blockquote>
