|
|
| Does anyone else experience this. I went out drinking on Saturday and I'm still feeling quite grim. I was drinking draught OB if that makes a difference. I enjoy having a social life, but I hate going to the toilet every hour on Monday morning. The annoying is that I didn't even feel too bad yesterday. |

| Yeah a lot of people say Cass / Hite / OB gives themw orse hangovers than beers with higher alcohol percentages. I think it's just due to the fact that they're low quality and are most likely chemically proccessed. |

I can't drink draught beer here. It gives me stomach cramps and the runs something awful- I just feel terrible the next day and can't stay off the toilet.
My friends don't experience this like me. Bottled beer is fine.
I don't think they ever clean the draught lines for the kegs. That may have something to do with it.
They may be adding something to the keg beer that they don't put in the bottled beer also.
Anyway, it's bottle for me every time. |

| Getting old is part of it but not all of it; think of all the older people who drink like fishes. |

OB, s-Hite and c-ASS shoud be avoided like the plague.
I drink Cafi in bottles and only get slightly hungover after about 12 or so...
I've not tried the 6.2% version on OB yet, but I'm not sure i want to.  |

i NEVER buy bottled beer in korea because they don't understand that beer can't be left in the sun for ANY length of time... don't try to return skunky beers to the bar... they don't give refunds (since beer's 'not korean culture' they can get away with selling pi$$) since even bartenders don't know what beer's supposed to smell like (i.e. NOT skunky, it shouldn't have any smell, IMO)... it's only cans for me...
korean beer gives me the worst headaches the next day, even if i only have 3 or 4... i'm sure they add nasty chemicals to their beer... i get a headache after the first GULP of cass, hite, or OB! |

Cafri's bottle now slightly resembles Corona's. I'd have to agree that Cafri and Red Rock are my favorite Korean beers, but that's only if I HAD to drink Korean beer.
OB Red (6.9%) tastes nasty. |

| The beer I can handle , but the soju is not fit for human consumption . Probably would make a decent drain cleaner though . |

| Why drink the crap that passes here for beer if you don't have to? Drink Heineken, Becks, or even Tsingtao but, avoid Korean beer - from the tap or from the bottle - at all cost |

Most restaurants use soju and water mixed to wipe down fatty surfaces!!!

I'm not sure if all Korean beer is bad, I love Cafri but maybe i've lost
my taste buds in the last three years I actually prefer Cafri to Becks and Heineken  |
