Warm beer...

GDawg · 07-20-2008, 11:05 PM

Colorado just passed a law where now you can buy alcohol on Sundays. I usually don't keep more than I can drink in one day. I had two 24oz PBRs in the house and then me and the woman went over to a friends house and I had a couple Rum and cokes with them. Now I'm home and the beer is warm and the stores are closed. It really doesn't taste that bad when you've got nothing else. When I was stationed in Germany all the beer was warm. Sometimes I'll wake up in the middle of the night and want to go downstairs for a drink of water or soda but am too lazy so I'll finish the unfinished beer sitting on my night stand... Is that crazy or what?

No--spent 3 years in England.

The beer I liked the best (Old Speckled Hen, and other Greene King products) were served at just slightly below room temperature (maybe 60 degrees or so--temp of the cellar where they were stored in the pub).

I wish they were carbonated a bit more, though. Seemed just a tad flat.

If you are drinking PBRs, just throw some ice in it. You can't ruin it.

Ha, unfinished beer on the night stand! That is crazy! All kidding aside though, ice cold to room temp, beer is mighty tasty!

I was also stationed in Germany (76-82) and became accustomed to cellar-cooled beer. Now I let mine sit out 20 min before opening. Hot beer- Drank really hot beer in the desert. Tweren't half bad !!
