The only beer that I've tried that I really enjoyed drinking was San Miguel in the Philippines. It might have been the fact it's hotter than hell there most of the time and they serve it ice cold at most of the bars I've been to there and I've been to quite a few. I've tried it outside of the Philippines but it didn't taste the same.Beware of DogComment

Or it could just be the case of draft beer vs cans or bottles? A lot of beers taste different from the tap than from the smaller container (Guinness being one obvious example)Eat Us And Smile

Could be. Beer can go bad if it's stashed in warehouses at high temperatures for any length of time. Not to mention the "skunk" factor if it's in clear or green glass and exposed to UV lightEat Us And Smile

They have such a program in place now. The problem is there's always someone out there working the system to line their own pockets. The growers usually pay an agency x amount of dollars per worker and the agency does everything else. Some growers work with legit agencies that do everything by the book. Some don't. I've found out the same thing goes on here with temp agencies. Some go by the book. Some don't.Beware of DogComment

It's a bullshit system but politicians won't allow for actual reform...Comment

I don't think they export the stuff they brew there. They reuse the bottles like they used to do with soda pop here years ago. Sometimes you end up with what they call a "green beer". The bottle didn't get clean enough and something inside it ends up giving you the worst case of mud butt you've ever had. I looked for San Miguel at a few of those big booze outlets like BevMo and Liquor Barn but they only sell San Miguel from Spain which is a totally different beer.Beware of DogComment

If the agencies and the growers actually obeyed the rules it wouldn't be. Just like the employment verification paper you fill out here to work. Some companies make sure all your documents are legit. Some don't.Beware of DogComment

When I was there they only served San Miguel in glass bottles. From what I was told at the time they use little or no preservatives.Beware of DogComment

Relation with San Miguel Beer (Spain)
As part of its overseas expansion, San Miguel began its foray into the Spanish market in 1953, setting up the company which would later become San Miguel Spain. Since 1946, there has been a company engaged in the production of malt for medicinal purposes known as La Segarra. In the early 1950s, its key shareholders Enrique Suárez Rezona, Ramón Vidal and Jaime Muñiz made contact with Andres Soriano, then president of San Miguel Brewery, to allow them to produce beer under the San Miguel name in Spain. In 1953, San Miguel Brewery, Inc. signed the “Manila Agreement”, with the Philippine brewer setting up a new Spanish brewery, La Segarra, S.A.. The company would later be renamed San Miguel Fabricas de Cerveza y Malta, S.A. in 1957, an affiliate of San Miguel Brewery, Inc. which initially held 20% equity share via its Hong Kong subsidiary.
The company was acquired by Mahou, S.A. from Groupe Danone in 2000, combining to form Spain’s largest brewer, the Mahou-San Miguel Group. On 26th February 2014, San Miguel Brewing International and Mahou-San Miguel signed a co-operation agreement to promote jointly San Miguel Beer and expand its global footprint.

I wish that was our Bud and once upon a time our Budweiser was pretty close until prohibition probably...
BTW, the two companies are unrelated and there has been litigation in the past...
I actually wish we had your Frenchie beer which is rated much higher than most other Euro pilsner and lagers here by beer geeks:

I can say this with much authority although I willing to do more research. Beer in its home country is better than the shit they sell abroad .
See Heineken in Amsterdam or Guinness in Ireland .
Especially Heineken it's not great over here but in the dam it tastes like heaven in a glass :-)fuck your fucking framingComment
