It’s actually all generally the same. Cass OB is owned by AB InBev aka Budweiser and many more huge mega conglomerate...and they even produce Cass in the US (to get tax advantage like the other importers who get a tax break and do things like offer 4 tallboy cans for 10)......

but IMO Korean beer is just drinking beer. Not like OMG SO AMAZING, but I think craft beer and Korean food would taste HORRIBLE together. Korean food is spicy, oily, rich, fried, salty and any kind of IPA or stout or whatever would match horribly.

I’m American and of course love my craft beer...but I don’t want it with fried chicken. It’s just gross haha. And all these places are springing up with craft beer and foods that don’t match.
