Hite

My sister-inlaw took me and my wife to an amazing Korean Barbeque restaurant here in Atlanta last week (Hae Woon Dae). The first time we went, I asked for some Korean beer (of course). However, they were completely out. So I ended up having a Sapporo instead.

Anyway, we went there again over memorial day weekend and this time they did have some cultural beer. So I ordered the Hite.

This is a very light and clean beer. Hite is known for two primary reasons. One is the water they use; it evidently is taken from the bedrock. The second is a different twist on the brewing process; something they refer to as the '3-stage rhythm method'. This avoids the 'yeast shock' which occurs when beer is usually stored and the temperature drops rapidly.

I really enjoyed this beer, and it went well with the BulGogi too!

For more information about the rhythm method, and other beers made by the same brewers, check out their website

Cheers,
