Ycaza was Filipino (Hispano-Filipino or what was then termed 'insulares'). In 1889, 'Filipino' was only a term used for Spaniards born in the Philippines. The indigenous people were referred to as 'Indio' but we ourselves referred to each other by our ethnicity (Tagalog, Visaya, Ilocano etc.) The San Miguel Corporation for its first 80yrs was controlled and run by the great 'mestizo' families. Spain's oldest brewery, Estrella in Barcelona, was only a decade before San Miguel in Philippines. Beer drinking, which was more popular in Northern Europe, only started to become widespread in Southern and South West Europe in the late 19th C. Before that, wine, eau de vie, gin and anisette type drinks were more popular in those regions. 'Anisado' or 'Anis de mono' were popular in Philippines before beer and whiskey (So much so that Philippine Anisado won awards in expositions in Spain.) Although San Miguel Spain gives the impression that they've been brewing since 1890, this isn't true. The first Spanish SM breweries were not established before the 50s. San Miguel Beer at one point was the only beer consistently available across East and SE Asia. Sorry, I stress the Filipino origin because the company and it's executives kept to the Philippines even after the Revolution and Spain's defeat to the US and never called it anything but beer from the Philippines.

Great, only, if you pour it do not touch your glass with the bottle. I do miss this Duvel, Geuzes and Lambics sometimes because I stopped drinking alcohol. Cheers!

Chang gave me stomache.

excellent my first beer London Pride at 16 yrs old -

I bought a case of cans today after a hiatus of 6 years and the disappearance 0f 750 bottles , and i was completely disgusted by what i tasted. It tastes like corn with its signature corn fermentation (acetone). It tastes like colt 45( 8.1) with some spices. It doesn't taste of wheat and wheat malt and barley malt. The website refers to "grains" , the colour is no longer orange but lager blonde , and the hops have diminished. The finish is fartoo dry. Colt 45 with spices. Thank you sapporo.

Have you tried Orion beer? It's one of the harder to find Jpn beers.

Find Heineken much sweeter.

U forgot the san miguel superdry. That's the best san Miguel beer

I found out after moving to Japan from Slovakia, that Asahi owns some of the most popular breweries in my country too

There is one more beer I wish you included on the list. It's Habesha beer

I like Duvel but there are other great beers too like Chimay, Trappist etc. I don't like the Duvel Tripel Hop though, it's after taste reminds me of metal (hard to describe).

I approuve your video but next time please use the right Glass , i give you a pass on this one, no reporting to the Belgian authorities will be done.Thank's for showing our favorite beer . Greetings from Belgium.

Thank's to taste our Belgian beer Duvel it's a great beer , my favorite since my teenage years. There one beer that i order every year the Trappiste Westvleteren not easy to get, to have this trapist beer you must order it directly from the Saint-Sixte abbey and it's brazed by the monks. We have over 350 different beer in the country . Greetings from belgium.

hehe. this was fun

Best Korea? North Korea

first off ,if you wanna drink duvel use the duvel glass not a random glass you start tapping it at 45° or even bit flatter and slowly straight up at the end. Question? do you know why duvel has small ¨bubles¨still going up in the middle of the glass. Answer. There is a litle scratch at the bottom of the glass.

Guinness glass with a Guinness beer please

the fact that you have more than 50% of your glass is filled with foam is becouse you're pouring it the wrong way. Start keeping the glass 45° and let the beer glide along the side of the glass. while you keep on pouring you turn the glass slowly straight up and the last of the beer left in your bottle you trow it into the glass to make the fome rize up to a 2 finghers thick layer.

Sapporo is bomb

Awesome video once again! I have tried most of these being a Japanese beer guy and you definitely had a very similar experience as I did when trying all of these. I truly feel like Asahi is good and unique. Definitely a good beer. Sapporo is ALWAYS a solid close second as well but much more bite to it I would say. As for Kirin... It is a shame because branding wise... I think they have the coolest posters and logo but I totally agree with you that there was just SOMETHING off with that one particular flavor in their flagship beer. Difficult to fully explain but it was not good when compared to Asahi and Sapporo.

VERY good info in this video... You are definitely well read on these topics! ... PS.... LOVE the posters at 3:01... !

Hey Chris…just found you and I’ve really been enjoying your videos, I’m working my way through them now. I don’t see a Sierra Nevada video though….I saw you said you’re not a fan of IPAs, but hopefully you’ll consider trying a few of their beers out. Keep up the great work

22 oz can of Sapporo Reserve is my favorite non Tripel beer. That can alone is to be celebrated. It's bullet proof. One thing that should be known is the consistency of taste and quality of all their beers.. So many beers in so many places in town and around the globe I've never had an off one even when I couldn't get it refrigerated.

One thing I love about your reviews is that you like every single beer so far. I mean, you show your preferences, you explain what's going on about every beer you taste and why you rank them higher or lower. But you show no disrespect to them and that speaks loud about how much you love beer. Cheers!!

Being Belgian Duvel remains my favourite beer. Duvel pairs perfectly with food, like stews, fish, asperges with butter sauce mjammieee

My Dutch friends for over 40- years can down 12- bottles of RED Horse Beer 🍺🍻 each at one sitting!.. Without "pulutan"😮. They find each strange we Filipinos have to eat while drinking 😅. During mg childhood years..a bottle 🍾 of San Miguel beeer cost P0.35¢..and same with Balut🥚..P0.35¢. Some restaurants would offer 2-bottle of beers 🍻 and I - Balut 🥚 for P1.00 or 2- Baluts 🥚 🥚 and 1- bottle 🍾 of 🍺 for P1.00. That was 70- years ago😅

very cool info! thanks for the lessons!

is it a coincidence that Corona hops smell & taste like cannabis? lolol Estrella has a bit of a cloying sweetness in the finish, which offends my palate. But I love the dry drinkability of a classic Modelo Especial (paired with El Torito nachos & apps or Buffalo Wild Wings lol).

horrible background music. Great video anyway

You should look into becoming a cicerone.

Cambodian beer Angkor.

Great video! Deserves more views :)

There's a Good reason Filipinas are Colonize by Spanish because we are Civilized but the Bad Reason is they Slaves us and Manipulate over 300years🤷

Doesn’t quite explain why they chose a clear bottle. Does the bottle have a clear protector from UV light? Or did they put a chemical in the beer itself to make it resistant to UV light?

Great info & production!

The video was a bit slow for me ... I've generally liked/loved Japanese beers ... damn Japanese ... [ like Germans taking over Czech Pilsners] ... They take a good idea and refine it up ! I'm American and still have my favorites ... but Japanese whiskey ! Damn ! .... but still prefer my Kentucky Bourbon.

The reviews are interesting the problem is that the famous beers are made by Canadian or American companies under the direction of the parent European company and these companies also make an export version that doesn't taste like the their original .

Pilzania 😝😝

I had it, just right now. It’s not for me

Did you get hammered after? Beer is only good if you gett buzzed

Back in 1970 around Seattle we drank red beers (with tomato juice) at many bars. Could keep drinking them for hours. Gotta try Modelo's take. Thanks.

Asmara (Melotti) italian beer 🇮🇹

SPAIN created and built Filipinas 🇵🇭 🇪🇸

Thanks for this, I`m going to Dublin this summer and wanted a heads up on what I can order at a pub there and not look like a typical tourist :)

Sapporo is the only one i've ever seen in a store (NH) and i gotta say i really enjoyed it

Most my glasses are Tulip pints, I have some Mugs and a seidel (not the Norwegian beer :P) and today I bought an IPA glass with the ribbing and etchings at the bottom, which I really like! And then I got tulips with the stem, which I like to use for beers that are a bit more malty. I'm usually quite picky when it comes to glasses, like if I buy a certain beer and don't have the glass for it, I get disappointed, but that's where the "shaker" or the Tulip pint comes in quite handy. I am on the lookout for a Stein though, and sadly I broke my weizen while enjoying a few more beers than usual 😅

RH is the best try 3bottles

Belhaven, before the GK takeover produced superb cask ales with their 80/- being the best of the range which included 60/70/80 and 90/-. It is now a bog standard example of what happens to a product when big business becomes involved, reducing quality for volume. Wetherspoons in Scotland now have the 80/- as their core cask ( cheap ) offering. Evidence itself that the beer is cheap to produce.The range of cask from Belhaven is now reduced to one beer which they call 80/- but has been reduced in abv to 3.9% and frankly is comparable in name only to its former self.

What about a 12oz pour 5ABV ale. That’s not a lager. 🤔

Well done, I have only had a couple of these.
