    @Tim Sweet... except... body-temperature lager? Hmmm....

    It is certainly next-level - but not as big a level up as one would expect, once one has been to Tsingtao/Qingdao (am I wrong in thinking you are in the area?)
    I fucking loved it - old-town area of Qingdao - every second merchant - whether it be a bakery, or hairdresser, or whatever - didn't matter - had two kegs of Tsingtao sitting on street in front of store - one atop the other. If one wants a beer - one simply approaches the store, and asks for the quantity... by weight. "I'll have 1 kilogram of beer please". And they put a plastic supermarket bag on a pair of scales, and pour beer into that plastic bag until the scales read 1 kilo, tie a knot in the top, and hand it to you.
    I've got a photo somewhere of my massive shit-eating grin as I went through that process.
    Tsingtao is probably still my favourite generic mass-produced lager simply because of that.

    Yeah, Chinese love serving beer at room temperature completely inappropriately. At the start of this year we had a bunch of visitors from France, and one of my colleagues put a 24 pack of Tsingdao on the table completely warm. I was like, "oh no, no, no ..."

    The shots on the first half of it are absolutely mind blowing. Really hard to capture the size and scale of Everest, but the director here has made a good fist of it.

    I would have assumed it wasn't real - but if @MiketheSnow endorses it.. yeah - WTAF.
    One of the few times I agree with "oh, yeah, going down is harder than going up".
    Only times that's ever been true is when drunkenly climbing buildings, and ridiculous fucking mountains.
    Oh - and motorcycling steep bends, actually.
    Fuck... maybe it is true - for everything except walking/running.
