The guys across the pond are celebrating National Beer Day and here in the Philippines, we can’t help but party with them!
It’s a known fact that Filipinos love a good, chilled beer. No matter the celebration–heck, even at funerals–one of our go-to social drinks is mounts and mounts of our favorite brands of malt brews. And if you look at the stats, it is the most consumed alcoholic beverage in the country with a whopping 2.1 billion liters consumed yearly! Clearly, our tastebuds have a bias when it comes to our booze, and here at Boozy, we’re acknowledging that love for beer with a list of the classics and some must-tries for those who want to celebrate along with us!
Crazy Carabao Variety Pack - ₱599.00
To start off the list, we’re offering you a variety pack to satiate your bellies and curiosities, Containing 2 of each zany flavor of Crazy Carabao which are Golden Ale, Indian Pale Ale, and Pilsner.
With a perfect blend of Australian hops and pale malt, this light, energizing ale is made. The Golden Ale is a sure and simple way to relax due to its lightness, fruity, and flowery flavors and smells.
For Indian Pale Ale, it’s a blend of hefty malts and hops. Tropical fruit aromas from multiple North American hops and large British malts enabled the drink to have a sweetness up front, followed by a cleansing bitter finish.
And serving as the last drink for this variety pack is the Pilsner. This beer is inspired by the classic German pilsner but with a moderately hoppy Bohemian touch. Noble hop qualities are highlighted by lightly toasted malt aromas, which bring out flowery fragrant and spicy herbal undertones.
Stella Artois 330ml Bottle 6-pack with Free Glass - ₱699.00
Up next is the nippy Belgian-native lager. Its crisp, refreshing flavor complements strongly flavored Thai, Asian fusion, and Indian meals. The sharpness also cuts through cream sauces in pasta dishes, perfect for your saucy meals. It also flawlessly smoothens the sharp tastes of cheeses like Havarti, Morbier, and other artisanal cheddars.
