Mrs Cellarman and I were at the a fireworks party on Saturday. The host, a Perth man, took great delight in serving Quilmes beer from Argentina. The beer had certainly come a long way, and had survived a journey of 1000's of miles (7047 to be exact), but it didn't really taste of anything you could detect. It fell very neatly into the 'New World Lager' category along with Bud, Foster's, MGD, etc. There are now well over 500 craft brewers in the UK: why should we get excited about a homogeneous lager from Argentina? The truth is I never loved it.
