I have the opportunity to buy up to a case of Budweiser (the real stuff from Europe). Does anyone have an opinion on it?

I've had the Czechvar version of it. It's okay.

When I tasted it in Prague, it was fucking amazing. It's OK in the bottle here as Czechvar, just not the same as the freshy fresh.

Well, since I live in shit beer land I don't think I can pass up a case. Especially for the price, about 25 bucks.

All beer is wonderful at the brewery. Even Shiner.
Yeah, don't pass it up.

Just popped the first one for today and it is great. No skunking and tastes like a real lager.

What the hell are you doing in Thailand?
I've been all throughout Asia, and if I had had the opportunity to drink Czechvar while there, I would have broken many laws and local ordinances to do so. Does it have the Budweiser label or is it Czechvar? Damn Americans stole the nobility away from the Budweiser moniker.

Long story, but I live and work here. Moved here about 5 months ago and I really like it...except for the complete lack of good brew. The Budweiser I got through a connection at the UN. As a bonus to their employees here they can buy different beer, wine and liquors at ridiculously cheap prices. They are moving to another country and just got the beer a few days ago so they can't properly enjoy it. Enter bklynbrewer.
Also complete lack of homebrewing sucks balls. Listening to the session makes me cry on a weekly basis. Then I get some Meet and remember why I left the USA.
