| Ehhh, I'm with srussell on this one. Not really a fan of Asian beers. I mean, they're better than most Australian beers, but that's not really saying much :p |

| I'm a big fan of Asian beers, in the right setting. When I'm out for Japanese food, I want a Japanese beer. Though if they have a full bar I'll go for the Shochu Martini every time :p |

| I prefer asian beers to american macros. That doesn't mean I really like em but those massive asahi bottle feel so good to hold (lol) and when the first few gulps are almost too cold to drink..that's beautiful. |

| you do realize that if you don't give a about taste, and just want to get drunk, you can just buy a fifth of smirnoff, right? |

| That's not really a good analogy. Think of it this way - you mostly listen to one type of music. You love it. Occasionally you listen to something different even though you aren't as fond of it. For whatever reason... Maybe there are just certain times when you want something different. At those moments, I gulp down 2 pints of asahi. Or maybe a really light german pilsner. |

Why stop at Smirnoff? Monarch, baby!
...
Yeah, but that. Though, actually, I'd personally rather have Smirnoff than Grey Goose.
I just happen to like matching my food with my drink. I'd never buy any Asian beer at the store, but I do enjoy it when I'm down in the International District here. |

| I always drink asahi with sushi. I couldn't imagine drinking an ipa or even a lighter pale ale with such a meal. The asahi is a wonderful complement :D |
