> [@Drunky\_Smurf](#): > > I got a box of Whoppers the other day and it didn’t taste like I remember them tasting. The maltiness seemed weak. My favorite is Mighty Malts, but they’re hard to find where I live now. I used to buy a carton for $1 in the Dollar Store back in Texas. Brach’s brand is another favorite that I can’t seem to find anymore. ---

I tried the ones from Amazon a few years ago, but they weren’t the same. I remember them being in a roll, and they were, well…maltier. I don’t know if it’s my memory, or they changed the product over the years. Or maybe someone has a warehouse of very old packages they’re selling as fresh. :eek: ---

German beer isn’t notably high in alcohol relative to US beer; I’d guess most Helles and Pilsners are somewhere in the 4-6% ABV range, just like most American beers. Flavor is a different story however. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/your-favorite-products-they-no-longer-make-this-time-with-pictures/692536.md?page=2)
