I'll be off to buy a few drinks in a moment, for the family:

  • me - a "double malt" Pilsner. Plenty people dislike it because it's rather bitter, but I love it for that very reason.
  • sister - a local Pilsner that has barely any hint of bitterness, she'd rather drink lighter beers.
  • BIL, mum - a sweet stout. It's locally sold as "Malzbier" but it has higher alcoholic content than Eastern European Malzbiere.
  • nephew - coin toss between apple juice or soda.

That'll side some entrevero that I should be getting ready to prepare right now, instead of loafing around in Lemmy.

Interesting, where do you live that “Malzbier” is alcoholic? Here they are normally the sweet non-alcoholic drinks e.g. children drink

Brazil. The Malzbiere in question are around 4% ABV, by no means "strong" but not children drink either. (For reference the local Pilsner are roughly the same in alcohol content.) But they're fairly popular among people who like sweeter beers, specially now in winter.
