For you beer drinkers...

Are hefeweizens popular in Namibia? With German heritage, I would think they would be brewed or imported.

Off topic but I see your a homebrewer. What do you like to brew? I like about anything brewed with citrus or Columbus hops. Than usually a stout or porter for the winter.

Some beer trivia for you beer drinkers: Little known fact is that Nigeria is #2 in the world for Guinness consumption (ahead of Ireland) and Cameroon is #5.

Is that per capita or net?

There's a few more people in those places than in Ireland, but I'd back the local boys to drink more than their fair share!

I believe that is net @Alistair.
From my understanding 40% of all Guinness is consumed in Africa. UK is firmly in #1!
I have not moved the US consumption standing as much as I have tried!

Knocking elbows with the locals in an Irish pub.

Ever since I brewed up an 18 month old girl, I haven't made any beer...and when you are pushing 40 its makes it that much worse.

Hefe and Belgians are my favorite to make. Can't screw up 45% red wheat and 55% 2row or pilsner malt and cane sugar.

I enjoy making wine more. Imo there is a lot less work and mess. My go to is concord grapes and massive amounts of sugar. My family making it for 100 years.

For all y ou real drinkers out there in the northern territory of Australia we have a small bottle of beer called Darwin stubbies.
In Australia we have small bottles called stubbies and the larger ones are called long necks.
How many of you fellas could drink a 6 pack of Darwin stubbies???

Another beer I like is Canadian, called Blue Buck. When we visit my daughter and hubby in Nanaimo, I stock up and bring some home. My wife is there now while I hold down the fort here, and she will be bringing back a flat or two for me!

We had beer vans at university in Canada back in my day. If you were having a party you called up the beer rep and he brought the van equipped with sound system and loaded with flats of chilled beer, FREE! Our TA was the Molson rep so our parties were supplied with Canada’s best, Canadian!

Wine is definitely easier to make. The white zinfandel kits are better than most that you can buy in a liquor store.

Bob, I may have been known to accept such a challenge.
However, as the years have gone by I must now stipulate that there be no requirement that I actually remember later whether I was successful in the challenge.

That's likely what will be inscribed on my tombstone then.

I'm rarely accused of having too much sense.

Besides, it's just a bigger caliber, I can handle the recoil...right up until I fall down.

That's just hilarious
