Battle of the Brews...Quarter Finals

So the last 16 round is at an end, and our journey to discover the beer that will be championed as "The official beer of the Bender Squad" now has but eight contenders. The draw was carried out last night, under the auspices of an independent adjudicator, namely, the Elster. And what a round it promises to be. The list, which is shown as the round will unfold, is listed below:

  • Guinness versus Heineken
  • Peroni versus DAB
  • Corona versus Kolsch
  • Budweiser versus Rolling Rock
The first round sees the might of Ireland face off against a Dutch Master. Could be a close one. Next up the underdog DAB takes on Peroni, with the Italian brew a definite favourite But the tie of the round is the two beers that polled the heaviest, both under shall we say, dubious circumstances. Corona takes on Kolsch in the third week. Last up is the battle of the Yankee brews, Rolling Rock takes on the heavyweight might of Budweiser. I think I mentioned earlier, that for this round, instead of just sticking up more facts and figures, that I would post an advert featuring the duelling brews. I will post the first round tomorrow night.
