The Best Beers in the World

Beer is the most widely consumed drink aside from tea, water and coffee, and probably the oldest beverage in the world. Through the ages, beer had became a symbol of friendship. It binds people of different ages and places. Even the highest officials of a certain tribe, civilization or even country have enjoyed at least a glass of this golden drink.

Some evidence show that beer was already consumed as early as 9500 BC. It was even mentioned in the Bible and in some ancient remains of the past. It was also mentioned in some passages during the Renaissance.

You probably wondered if there is such a title as “the best beer in the world.” Well, as we all know, there are  a lot of beer brands on the shelves today. In the US alone, there is a wide variety of choices when it comes to beer. But of course there is only one that will stand out. Each country has their own beers like flag carrier airlines. Here are some of the famous, or probably the best tasting beers in the world today:

Coors Beer – From the USA, Coors is famous for their lager. The company managed to survive the Prohibition Era by selling their malts to Mars candy makers.

Miller Beer – Also from the USA and is famous for their lager. They were the ones who revolutionized the Draught or Draft system of beer which is stored in kegs.

Budweiser Beer – Another brand from the USA, this beer was originally a recipe from Bohemia in Europe (now known as Czechoslovakia).

San Miguel Super Dry – Known for its Smooth and crisp taste with a fine after taste, this beer is from the the top beer producers in the Philippines. The company has been brewing since 1890.

Red Horse Beer – Also from the Philippines. Famous for its strong alcohol content. Originally owned and patented by Asia Brewery Corporation. Until the latter was bought by San Miguel Corporation during the 90’s.

Heineken Beer – From the Netherlands. Their top of the line product is their Pale Lager. Established in the year 1873.

Carlsberg Beer – From Denmark. Their famous product is also their Pale Lager. Started during 1847. One of the highest selling beer in Europe.

If you noticed, these breweries have a common denominator. They are all hundred or more years old. Well, it really takes decades to build a trusted name. Experience is the weapon of these companies. And also, innovations are considered for the companies to last this long.

Although considered as a life degenerating vice, there are still some term papers about a vitamin fortified beer, that is beer and Vitamin B. But still, we should never increase our intake. The risk of developing a debilitating illness is still high with increased alcohol consumption despite some vitamin fortification. As these liquor companies say, “Drink Moderately.”
