Boak & Bailey's Beer Blog - Writing about beer and pubs since 2007
“But as English Bass is never quite the real article on the Continent, so Münchener is never quite the real thing in England. Whether beers have to be fortified or not for a voyage outside their own country they have a tendency to be both doubtful and dear. Bass is too ‘gassy’ on the Continent; Munich too biting in England… In its native beer-gardens Münchener is the prince of beers — brown and bland and soft, with a cream of froth like a beaten egg, a delicate flavour, cold, yet not icy, refreshing to the body, and comforting to the stomach…”
W.R. Holt, ‘Germans and their Drinks’,*Daily Express, 04/09/1902
(Brown and bland — count us in!)
