Karsipen's eyes lit up, and Nikaradas exclaimed loudly beside him, "Not bad, this is delicious!"
Agatakus, with beer foam still on his lips, raised a skeptical question, "Is this really beer?"
It wasn't surprising he asked this. These pirates had visited many Mediterranean port towns and tasted various beers from different regions, but they were all more or less the same: cloudy liquid, full of sediment, bitter taste, and an overall unpleasant drinking experience...
Because of this, the nobles and upper-class people in the Mediterranean regions had always sneered at beer. It was merely a reluctant choice for hydration and mild enjoyment among some lower-class folks. Naturally, the brewers did not invest extra time or money in studying how to improve the quality of this cheap alcoholic beverage.
