Anchor beer - it may be possible to sweeten your coffee with it….

Last night I sampled Anchor beer which appears from my half-arsed investigations to be imported from Asia - Cambodia I think. (I had no idea they were a beer-producing nation. They they are now on my Places To Visit list.)

Upon first tasting it I thought it distantly resembled Stella Artois but after a few seconds more I realised that it has quite a strong after-taste. It’s a pilsener so by nature it’s quite crisp and clean, but it seems to have a quirky little bite to it. I think it tastes caramelised - like burnt sugar. Sort of sweet but bitter too - like artificial sweetener used to taste before they removed the carcenogens…. Not unpleasant at all but certainly not a beer I would be likely to buy by the carton.

Although if it was on special and came with something free I could surely be talked into it.
