WOW, this takes me back! Picture the scene – 1992-1999, De Hems Dutch pub on the edges of Chinatown in London. A Friday night out with the boys, and amongst other stuff, the Oranjeboom is flowing! Shame really, because it ain’t a very good beer at all! Having said that, VERY happy times and a decent pre-cursor to a Vindaloo at The Strand Tandoori!
Picked this up at Trader Joe’s at tte Forum in Norcross, GA, USA. Part of a split four pack, $1.09 a can.
Looks good (for a macro lager). Plenty of carbonation and a decent head. No skunk, pretty clean, but indistinguishable from thousands of others. Relegate it to drinking cold in front of the grill in an Atlanta summer and all is well. Much else and it’s just another one of millions of low quality macro, Euro lagers.
