How do you drink your beer?

[gunslingingbird]

As a beer snob, I've had this discussion with people several times. I'm of the notion that beer should be drank straight from the bottle. Drinking from a glass changes the oxygenation of the beer when it enters the mouth, thereby changing the flavor. Plus, depending on how reputable the establishment where you are drinking the aforementioned beer in a glass, the ratio of beer to carbonation changes slightly or greatly, which affects the flavor.

How do you prefer your beer?

i love beer. love it.

it depends what im drinking.

for christmas my mom got me this huge glass mug so im using it for my brew. and yes, you're right, but im ok with that for the cheap shit.

when i get my guinness, i follow what it says on the bottle or can. bottles you drink from it. can, you pour it into a pint glass.

i do have a bit of a ritual though. a couple hours before bed, my girl gets up all by herself, goes to the kitchen, opens the fridge, opens me two cans. she pours em in my mug, brings it to me and sets it down on the little table next to me.

i like that girl.

The only time I drink beer that comes in a bottle, the bottle tends to have instructions on it as to how to pour it into the glass, leaving a small amount of beer and the sediment in the bottle.

Sediment. You know, real beer?

If its just a light (non-dark) beer I´ll happily drink it from the bottle, if its a darker beer, ale or stout I´ll do the glass. It just tastes better, and you dont disturb the beer when you´re drinking from a glass, so all the sediment stays at the bottom compared to the air you are running through it when drinking straight from the bottle.

You're right, putting it in a glass changes the taste. It makes it taste as it is supposed to.

In a glass for me.

I do both methods. I have Pint Glasses for when I have gst over.
But usually drink from the bottle when drinking alone.
I can control the amount of air I ingest easier that way.

Too much air with the natural carbonation of beer makes for
excessive belching and farting for me.

It's sad but I've switched over to wine for daily social and pleasure reasons
because of the carbonation issue.

It's hell to get old.

I'll drink it from the bottle or glass, I'm not particular as the rest of you jerks are apparently.

My favorite method though is to dip a tampon in said beer and shove it up my anus.

Neither glass nor bottle.

Tell me you don't drink beer from a can. Please.

In a bottle

Bottle..like a man does.

In the pub - from a glass - they don't let you drink it straight from the tap.
Bottled lager from the bottle. As the bottle has been stored cold, it helps keep the beer cold longer.
Other beers and canned lager from a glass.
Guinness from a glass - and I have been known to instruct the bar staff on how to pour a Guinness properly.

For those of you hatin' on bottles, I will say this: there are certain times when it just seems right to drink out of a glass. For example, yesterday I was at Tommy's watching the Niners get bent over by the Ravens, and I ordered a beer that I'd never heard of before, Bière du Chocolat. It's a porter made with chocolate beans, as the name implies. I was a bit dismayed when I got my beer in a glass, but after the second one I decided that getting that same beer in a bottle just wouldn't seem right.

I like a chilled pint glass or one of those German beer steins with the flip top. Also I like those barrel shaped British pub glass with the handle.

I gave up beer for 0 carb bourbon but there is nothing like the thick froth from a good stout and you can only get that from pouring it in a glass.



^ my favorite. I miss it.
