I'd be tempted by Sullivan's Black Marble Stout, I really like Kilkenny... But I'll pass on the Staropramen with what @godfish has to say and the more it comes from the Molson galaxy (even if the head office is in Montreal)...
Have a great Sunday
Cheers 🍻
Beer is like music; personal taste is subjective. I agree that we have different opinions about the beer. That doesn't mean one opinion is better than the other. The important thing is that everyone enjoys what they like.
Yes, taste is very subjective, even a beer you liked, at another time, depending on your state of mind, it's not going to be that anymore...
But when I see that Molson is behind a beer, I have an "apriori". They've bought up a few microbreweries here to apply the same methods as their main beers, and I think they're losing authenticity and creativity.
Have a great Sunday
I think I understand what you are trying to say. I can agree there, but not entirely. We have had major breweries bought by Heineken, but to tell you the truth, I never liked those beers before, not now after the change of ownership.
Enjoy your Monday :)
