Taiwan Beer (Táiwān Píjǐu)

MY THOUGHTS:
I thought about this for a while and I think it has to be done, for better or for worse. I personally do not drink Taiwan beer if I can help it. However, from time-to-time everyone seems to be thrust into a situation rather it be: an akward work party, a sketchy KTV, or road side food stand, it is the only thing available and rather then going through life sober I have to partake. There are many myths about what is exactly in Taiwan beer, but one thing is for certain it can give you incredibly bad hangover (kick you in the brains). I will take a step aside and review this in a good light.
HISTORY:
Taiwan beer was first brewed in 1922 when Taiwan was under Japanese rule. It is a light amber beer with a "distinct" taste which is produced by being made from PONLAI RICE (whatever that might be) The beer is best served cold (try Antarctica temp.) The locals say it is suitable and complements alot of Taiwanese or Japanese food. Taiwan beer has won international awards, including the International "Monde Selection" in 1977 and the "Brewing Industry International Awards" in 2002. I wish I knew the other beers that were entered in these awards. However, Taiwan beer remains this island's best-selling brew.

FACTS:
Three brews, all amber, are sold under the name Taiwan Beer: Original, Gold Medal, Draft. All brews are 4.5% alcohol and are regularly seen in Taiwan's convenience and grocery stores. The newest brew, Taiwan Beer Draft, is designed to be sold fresh. It is most often served in restaurants and bars.
