@MBraedley The website says they are all Belgian beers though. I don't see how Belgian beer has a style though, there are all kinds of beers, you mentioned dark and strong, there are a lot of white/blond/whatever it is called in English beers too.

@Arperum It's mainly a distinction for north american breweries that do various european style beers.

Strong seems to be a point though, I'd assume beer to be ~6%, 10%+ is a stronger beer.
I don't drink personally though, so that makes my knowledge a bit less based in practice.

@Wandang Let me put it this way. I'm Korean. People tend to make the joke about people of Asian descent looking the same/being interchangeable, which is offensive. I tend to find it uncomfortable when people make blanket statements of "I like Asians" because you're generalizing an entire continent's worth of countries and cultures into one big conglomeration and removing their identities and saying they're interchangeable.
 
Frank

@AshleyNunn Mostly, I found it ironic he got all bent out of shape about getting a comment removed, but one of his more recent questions was all, "This offends me, and must be removed."

Whether you're Chinese, Filipino, Indonesian, Taiwanese, etc. tends to rather, y'know... matter to people.
