Today's entry focuses on Cervez Quilmes, the most popular brew in Argentina so much so that the brand is considered a national symbol (according to Wikipedia).
Quilmes has been brewed since 1888, and it can not only be found in bars in Buenos Aires, but also in Mexico, Honduras, Peru, Spain, France, Italy and apparently here in the United States.
The beer also sponsors Argentina's soccer team, which fared well in the World Cup until they met Germany which beat them 4-0!
While researching this piece, we came across an informative and interesting beer blog (brbeerscene.com) from Eric Ducote of Baton Rouge, La.
We gather from the blog that Eric is traveling or recently came back from Seattle.
While Googling bars in Seattle, we came across The Alibi Room located in the historic Pike Place Market.
We have no idea if they have any beer from Argentina or not, but it sure looks like a hip, happening place!
