ALS? They forgot the A! We don't need no stinky pulseaudio! We want ALSA, moar ALSA!

I challenge wuxmedia and ivanovnegro. The task is to drink one tin of the cheapest beer in your country.

If you fail to fulfill this, you have to donate 10 pieces of money to the BBQ.

yey! Mine was "Harbin Beer", the cheapest I could get. So Tesco's will do perfectly fine. :) I went to youtube's straight "Upload from webcam", with a 3 EUR webcam.

And remember to nominate at least 1 person!

hmm only 2% see why it's called everyday beer!

there is a latvian/polish/romanian shop in town, might try one of their cheapies out.
Any reccomendations?

The worse the better! It's not about the alc, it's about the self-humiliation and the taste. :D

Yeah, pineapple-flavored beer! By the way, anybody can be (core)nominated as many times as wished, so it might hit me again :D

Tsing tsao isn't that bad beer.. IMO.

Tsing Tao is the name of the city where the beer comes from. It is said that once there were Germans there who taught the Chinese how to make proper beer.

Qingdao. The Germans brought them beer, and also built the water and sewage system there. The German "gully" word is still existing in Qingdao vocabulary ('guli'). Probably that's where they get their beer from.
