| Nicola_Rio's Full Review: San Miguel Pale Pilsen |
San Miguel, San Miguel! My life for a San Miguel! Ok, well, maybe this is an exaggeration, but as far as beers go, San Miguel tops them all. In my opinion and in the opinion of millions (well ok, maybe hundreds) of other tourists I've chatted with during their stay in the Philippines, this is the King of all beers!
San Miguel is a mild and pleasing beer. Well, it has a much larger alcohol content than most American beers yet has that illusion of lightness somehow. It is slightly bitter, and rather malty, but has an ineffable charm to its effervescence that cant quite be explained despite the use of big words. It's not extremely burp-inducing, as are most heavy German ales, nor as exotic and extreme as the popular Irish beer, Guiness. The genius of this beer is its ability to please the palates of almost every race. It has attained a common ground, wherein everyone's favorite qualities in the ideal beer have been mixed together to produce this.....this gift from God (yet made by Filipinos). And the miracle of it is, its dirt cheap! It has, however, remained quite an exotic secret as far as beers go. You won't find it anywhere but in the Philippines or maybe in the United States. WHY may I ask? This beer should be in good reach of EVERYONE's hands.
I propose a toast to the world's best beer!! San Miguel!!
