    I wonder if it's any good or even if Dennis Rodman likes it.

    Insta-Whale!! Has to be the hardest beer to obtain.

    I'll offer up a case of HT and 6 bottles of Double Sunshine for a 6pk of Taedonggang.

    It looked like Taedonggang was brewing up seven styles of beer? The infomercial seemed interesting enough. It would have been better, of course, if I could SPEAK KOREAN! :wink:

    All the guys tasting the beer in the ad did so at gunpoint. Afterwards, they were executed for having the gall to think themselves worthy of drinking a beer only fit for the supreme leader.

    If their rocket science advancement is as recent as their version of video editing software, I think we're in fine shape.

    Roughly translated, as my Korean is very rudimentary:

    *Made from the water of the Taedonggang (Taedong river).
    *Satisfies labourers.
    *Since 2010 Taedonggang has been the most popular beer in North Korea.
    *Taedonggang is is the best beer in North Korea.
    *Our brewery is modern, clean and safe, and ready to mass-produce.
    *Our beer tastes "clean" and "soft".
