Handwritten notes: Fucking Buddhists don't know the meaning of sacrilegious. Some beer bottle with the smiling face of Jesus or Muhammad would undoubtedly incite some divinely justifiable bloodshed. But the Buddhists just sit there in the corner, smoking weed and thinking about the human condition. This beer has that greazy Oriental feel with a floral backdrop. So, in conclusion, buy Rucky. But don't desire it. Existence is suffering. It ends when you're drunk.

Handwritten notes: Gross. China and Mexico should be barred from brewing beer. Weak, no powerful taste, but something weird behind there. It was the same sort of taste in Asahi, like a sort of numbby greasy balloon taste (that's a strange way to describe it, but try it for yourself. Or don't. Wait, no, don't. It sucks).
