World Cup Beer Matchups


pstall

Recommended Posts

Stolen from a buddy.

Beers from the nations that will be playing at the World Cup. Go get them and enjoy.

Got the idea from there but I thought a few of the beer choices sucked out loud.

Group A

South Africa - Castle

Mexico - Dos Equis Amber (not Corona...thats crap)

France - Kronenbourg (Brewery been around since 1664...they know their beer, which is weird for Frenchies.)

Uruguay - Patricia (never had it, maybe Total Wine or City Beverage carry it?)

Group B

Argentina - Quilmes (dad has been down there a couple times and said it was very good)

South Korea - Hite (had it in NYC - loved it)

Nigeria - "Nigeria present a few more problems, but for someone so committed to celebrating cultural diversity and harmony, it is not insurmountable. It turns out, that the first Guinness brewery ever built outside Ireland the UK was constructed in Lagos in 1962, so a glass of the Black stuff will do nicely." SOLD. Guinness it is since the Irish were cheated out of the WC...

Greece - Mythos

Group C

England - They serve beer warm. I do not recommend following that tradition. It's gross. Go for a Greene King IPA.

USA - Patriotism rings. Samuel Adams.

Slovenia - Lasko

Algeria - This webpage doesn't speak too well of them in terms of beer. Article says Tango which has oranges in it. I guess go with that?

Group D

Serbia - Jelen

Ghana - Star Beer

Germany - I'm with the author of the article -- I love Paulaner.

Australia - If you drink a Foster's then kill yourself. It is a repulsive beer. So many better options from down under. I'd go for James Squire Original Amber Ale. It tastes like God making out with you.

Group E

Denmark - Maybe "cliche" but I'm still going Carlsburg. So good.

Holland - Heiniken is nasty. Grolsch is gross (even sounds the same.) Amstel Light please -- a light beer that tastes like a normal beer? Where do I sign up?

Cameroon - 33 Export. I like the name. Sold.

Japan - Kirin Ichiban. It's number one.

Group F

Paraguay - Dorada (doubtful it is available here, try anyway.)

Italy - Peroni or Moretti? I'll take Peroni in a close contest.

Slovakia - I'll go with the writer again. Tui beer.

New Zealand - Something, anything, from Lion Breweries.

Group G

Ivory Coast - Mamba. I hear Kobe drinks it.

Portugal - SuperBock. I love bocks so I'm sure I would be all over this one.

Brazil - Brahma

North Korea - Taedonggang, packed with Communism!

Group H

Honduras - Barena

Chile - Cristal, no not the champagne, the beer.

Spain - Estrella Galacia. Delicious.

Switzerland - Hell beer. What's the worst that can happen drinking that?

Stay thirsty, my friends.

Sounds like me and my friends are bound for a drinking game here. For every match pick up a 6 pack of a beer from that country, then drink every time that country takes a shot.

Takes a shot?!? You might be dead after one half depending on the matchup.

You can't do goal because there might be a game with no drinks. Yuk Yuk.

I say for when Italy plays, drink when there is a blatant flop...Whiny Azzuri's

Just a sip man, that way you should be just out of beer by the time the game ends. No reason to chug for every shot, pace yourself buddy!

Yeah you can make additional rules for cards, free kicks, flops, offsides, etc., but why complicate things?

Basically all the Central and a lot of the South Americans all have the same beer, they just switch the labels.

Bohemia is my Mexican beer of choice.

Estrella Damm is better than Estrella Galicia (though I've learned to appreciate Moritz more) for Espanya.

Anything from Ølfabrikken is my choice from Denmark.

For Germany let's lighten it up with a Weihenstephaner Hefe Weissbier (fruit not mandatory).

Fuller's London Porter is still my favorite from Ol Blighty. Gotta go for the heavy stuff if you're going British.

La Trappe for the Dutch. If you go mainstream at least go with the cool sounding Oranjeboom.

For the US, how bout a little Brooklyn Lager!

Lot a ways you can go with these countries. The rest don't really have any beer worthwhile (maybe the Antipodean countries, but I only know Coopers and Steinlager, neither which I really care about).

    • It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed. 
    • I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
    • 7 wins this year and some of those against really good teams and yall think Canales might get fired? Lol Good luck getting a better coach in here if that happens.
