Beer Flavoured Green Tea

I invited CowBoyCaleb for home cooked meal at my place and we were doing the "obligatory 30-minute sit down with mom and dad in front of the TV" when the commercial for this beverage showed up on screen.

So anyway, we were intrigued by the product that touted itself as a green tea but not a green tea, a beer but not a beer.

And it just so happened that my little brother, Alvin, was coming over to SpitLand from Los Angeles (summer vacation) and I called him the day before to grab half a dozen cans over while he was in transit in Ta1wan.

Before you know it, 8 cans of these showed up at the dinner table the next day.

We opened a can to each have a taste.
Personally, it was not as bad I was would have expected but still it was pretty weird shite.

I would described it as passion fruit infused green tea with bubbles with a slight hint of the bitterness of beer.

And as I read the ingredient label, I realised that this is merely green tea with hops, which explained the faint hint of beer. The alcohol content of this beverage was a paltry 0.05%.

To sum it up in one word?

FAIL.


p.s. Apparently, CowBoyCaleb also blogged about this and not wanting people to find out that he actually loved this shite, he wrote a scathingly negative review about this Beer Flavoured Green Tea.

Too bad, I got photo evidence to prove otherwise. I have this incriminating photo of him endorsing the Beer Flavoured Green Tea with his signature MAD MONKEY GRIN.

Let's see you try to wriggle out of this one, CowBoyCaleb! Admit it! You love this shite! FAIL!

ruok: Palm Oil one har? Or Incredible Hulk?

THB: I believe this was launched AFTER you left Ta1wan. So even if you were there, you couldn't have possibly tried it.
