Cass Beer is one of South Korea’s most popular both packaged and draugh. It is a very light coloured mild tasting Asian pilsner style beer which has the foamy head like you would see in Japan and some of the other countries in the region. It’s quiet a refreshing taste although not as complex as some. The Cass Lager is a fairly new product being introduced in 1994, the brewers The Oriental Brewing company use a 100% non pasteurized brewing process to produce this drop.  The company is run by InBev which owns huge products like Stella and have just about half of the Korean market.  The Cass Lager is not usually found outside Asia, but some specialty stores do stock it, and is well worth picking up a few when you see them.

    Very surprising to see a positive endorsement of this beer. Both Cass and the other major beer in Korea Hite, are lackluster offerings with zero body. In the ex-pat community in Korea it is known by a completely unflattering, rhyming nickname. Unfortunately Korea has huge import tariffs and draconian protectionist laws holding back anything but Cass and Hite from brewing here and selling, so anyone who is cost conscious drinks Cass or it’s identical twin from another company Hite.
