In a bell tower, watching you through cross hairs.
Straight from the keg .... honestly bottles/glasses really :drunk:

I love you.


From a bottle, a long neck bottle. Occasionally a frosted mug. I have about 4 very heavy beer mugs from a bar I used to go to, years ago. Oncew in a while, when it's really hot, I get the urge.

Whenever the waitress (or barmaid) asks, "Do you want a glass?", my standard response is "It's already in a glass". They invariably smile and nod....no doubt because it's true and it also saves them from unneeded work. Beer in a bottle (unless it's draft, obviously) is the way to drink a brewski.
 
The full body and flavor of beer is released after having poured it into a correct glass.

The main thing with beer is it MUST be cold - no ifs or buts on that! Glasses or bottles either or unless sediment is involved then its definitely in a glass. :beer:

Mind you you do get a nice head when in a glass *hehe* ;)

Cans are for camping only lolz! xXx

I prefer it in a glass as it should be.

But it's not entirely correct that a beer MUST be cold. The taste of the beer changes with temperature and often the brewers advise an ideal temperature to consume the beer, but that depends on personal taste as well of course. There are two general rules: 1. The colder the beer, the less flavor; 2. The warmer, the more aromatic. Now if a beer has more alcohol in it it tends to 'absorb' the aroma of the beer when it's too cold, so some beers should be drunk on a higher temperature to get all out of it.

all food and drink follow that rule.

Spoken like a True Blue Aussie.

If I am at home having a beer or when I go out and the beer I order is available in a bottle then I have it from the bottle. I don't see the point of pouring into a glass. But if it's on tap then I obviously have it from a glass. I never gave it much thought before but now that I think of it, from the bottle would taste better generally. Like Heineken, when it's only available on tap I don't like it much but when available in bottles it doesn't seem as bitter.

And a beer connoisseur on top of everything else? Now you are becoming irresistible! I, also, am not a fan of warm beers. Germany is the only place I have ever been given warm beer. But I do like the dark beers. :beer: :glugglug:

As a former barman myself, I reckon it's actually the polite smile of "(sigh) Somebody thinks they're clever" or "Never heard that one." Or the nod of "Just doing my job, no need to be a dick."

when you become aware that everyone hates you in the world, life gets pretty bland, doesnt it?

they've heard it all and want to go home. the less you try to amuse them, the better everyone's off. so yes, you're right.
 
Having said that, it's a great menial job to be in where you can fuck around with the general public without fear of getting into trouble like in a shop, bank etc.

Once at the last orders bell I saw a bloke propping up the bar was about to get to the end of his pint (we weren't very busy) so I said - helpfully, I thought - "do you want one more?" He replied "I do, but I don't want you to pour it. I want one of the dolly birds to serve me." Yes, he actually said dolly birds. Well, both of the dolly birds were good friends of mine and none of us particularly care for casual sexism, so I shot each of them a knowing look and pulled a face that says "nah, I don't think so." It's hard to describe the face, but they both knew what it meant. One went upstairs to start balancing one of the tills, one of them went round the other side of the bar to wash glasses, while I carried on serving the last few stragglers. Ten minutes later I rang the bell again. "Time, gentlemen please!" This tosser at the end of the bar said "I wanted another!" I smirked at him and said "WELL, I did ask!" and he fucked off. Dolly birds indeed.

People that think they can get served quicker at the bar by holding their note out in front of them. You're all dickheads.
"Put your money away sir, I'm not a whore, and if I were, I know you can't afford me."

Whistlers too. Dickheads. Usually think they've been there longest, even when you know "blue shirt" and "always orders Guinness" have been waiting longer.
"Sir, you whistle at taxi drivers and dogs, and I'm afraid I'm neither."

Best of all was Christmas Eve, this guy comes in ABSOLUTELY LEATHERED. He slurs to me about wanting "just one more drink" having blatantly been ejected from the last pub. I thought I'd have a laugh with him, and his reaction took me completely off guard. The boss had already given me the shaky head of "absolutely not."
"Look mate, he's not going to serve you, she's not going to serve you, she's not going to serve you and I'm not going to serve you. So why don't you just fuck off, yeah?"
His eyes rolled slowly up to meet my face, and suddenly he cheerfully went "Fair enough, so!" and stumbled out into the night. That took me by surprise somewhat.

Lets start an argument - putting my CAMRA hat on 'The main thing with beer is it MUST be warm' 45-50 degrees! The large brewing companies such as Interbrew and Molson Coors use ice cold beer to mask the poor taste of their watered down lagers, it depresses the flavour plus also ups the carbonation giving it a pleasant tingle and again hiding the lack of flavour. Get yourself a good craft beer - keep it at about 45-50 degrees then drink it slowly and taste the dam thing, and you really don't want to start talking about 'head' it's a real North/South devide in the UK - most people living above Watford enjoying far more head than down south! :blowjob:

I drink my beer out of a glass.

Only minus the beer and add Canadian whiskey, apple pucker and cranberry juice.

That's how I drink my beer :D
