North Korean Booze

We went to the DMZ north of Seoul last weekend. It was really interesting and really strange. While we were there we picked up some beer and soju from our northern neighbors. This is a taste test! How does North Korea 's booze stack up against South Korea 's booze? :-D

Haha, it says "Daedong-gang Maekju" on the beer bottle, which means Daedong River Beer. Daedong (or Taedong, depending on how you romanize Korean names) River is the big river in Pyongyang, like Han River in Seoul.

@BoundEnigma Haha, thanks! I can read Hangul pretty well most of the time, but if it's handwriting or stylized too much I still have trouble deciphering it.
