This is a review of the biggest selling beer in the world - Snow. Haven't heard of it?? Apparently in 2008 it overtook Bud Light to become the world's biggest selling beer (now that's gotta put you on the map).
Here's a link to Wiki...

They brew 61 million hectolitres of this each year. Fancy that!

This is a Chinese beer that is brewed by a joint venture between the Chinese and SAB Miller. I haven't come across it in Australia.
I am in China at the moment and I tried a bottle of the draught (sorry about the contradiction in terms there - just telling you what was on the label). I was amazed to see the list of ingredients: hops, rice, starch and malt barley - in that order!
Wonder where this starch is coming from if it isn't malted barley or rice? You would think they would say wheat if that was the source. The mind boggles...
Anyway it's brown and fizzy. That's as close as it gets to beer and that's all it deserves for a review. The only reason I wrote this review is that I just can't get over them adding starch.
Avoid it like the plague... it's shite...
It's just amazing that the food here has so much flavour and the beer has none. It's worse than VB...
truly...
I'm not kidding...
