Drink their beer warm?

He tells me thats how ya' gotta drink it... Bull Sh[b][/b]it!.. loaded up a stainless steel bowl with Ice water & a lil Kosher salt...mine were frosty in about a half hour...

I hate Becks to start with but piss warm Becks....I think I'd rather drink Coors. 8)

You know beer in Great Britian is served at room temperature.

It's only real ale is served like that. It's on the slide in Britain. All lagers are served chilled, quite a few now are "super-chilled". I don't think there's a proper ale in the top ten selling draught beers now, alas. Guinness is in there, a few ciders, but mostly lager. Unsurprisingly, Stella is the #1, by a mile.

I think your mate is telling you porky pies. Becks should be served the same as other lagers, cold, the way you did it. I think he's one on his own. 8O

Yea, I'd rather drink Coors myself!!!!

I drank a lot of warm beer in Germany back in the 70's.... All the Guest Houses had their own brew.... It was about the temp. of a root celler.... Brown flip top liters...... Great beer IMO!!!!

To this day, I've never seen real German beer in the US & I've always wondered if it's still the same in Germany.......

Not true, unless the room in question is the cellar! Whilst not as cold as a lager, real ale should be served at less than room temperature.

If a landlord gives you a pint at 20C, hand it back and tell him to get another job.

Actually, real ale sales are increasing. I'd post a link, but my work won't let me access booze-related websites :(

And for the record, real ale is NOT served at room temperature. CAMRA would weep if they read this thread.

Well, from what I've seen in the pubs I frequent, the number of pumps offering bitter and mild have diminshed considerabely. It used to be 3 or 4 bitters and 2 milds. Now it's 5 lagers, 2 bitters (if that) and 1 mild, Even Wetherspoons, who boast about real ales, seem to have half the guest bitters unavailable. That may just be the philistines in my neck of the woods though.

It's sad, but there's a vast number of 20-somethings who refuse to drink brown beer. They don't know what they're missing.

No-one wants to drink my 'brown beer' :(

Fish the pubes and the kernels of corn out, and you might stand half a chance.

Reply to RobD

Should I leave the blood clots and semen in?

Reply to WingDing

Oh no, leave the essential part of the beer in. You don't want it to lose it's unique taste now.

In Zimbabwe it's used as a fertility treatment.

Reply to WingDing

Yet bizarrely, it's used as a contraceptive in East Timor.

Reply to RobD

In Wigan they use it as a hair restorer.

Then again, who gives a toss what happens in Wigan.

Warm beer is for deserted islands and even then put them in the water to at least be cooler than ambient. 8)

Even Guiness and Pale Ale and the like I prefer chilled (prefer Guiness as a PoorMan's Black Velvet with Cider really and the as cold as you can make it).

I don't know what some people's fascination is with warm beer, but I bet it just has to do with the way they're used to drinking it. However I'd think once they tasted a good cold one, they'd at least appreciate the cool refreshing effects of just a cold drink. :?

Warm drinks are for brandies and spiked coffee (preferably at a football or hockey game), but beer best served cold.

The only beer I've ever enjoyed warm is coffee beer (Midnight Sun Coffe Stout , Miller Street Coffee Porter) which doesn't feel like drinking beer so much as spiked thick coffee.

At least he wasn't trying to get you to drink one of those german unpasturized thick and pasty beers, not a bock but the Kellerbeers or whatever they are ughh they're just nasty and I had them both warm and cold, and nothing could make that cream of wheat better! 8O

Gimme a good Cold lager or IPA in Summer, and a good still cold Wheat, Stout, Amber or Bock in the Winter. 8)

EDIT: Ooops didn't notice the Wingding thread detour. :mrgreen:

It's true that the number of hand pumps has diminished somewhat - especially in some areas of the country (Yorkshire is the worst, somewhat surprisingly). This is due to a number of reasons, but the main ones:

1. Reduction of pints of ale sold
2. Pubs deliberately not stocking ale because it requires trained bar staff rather than attractive but inept young girls. And it doesn't keep as long as nitrokeg.
3. General consolidation of the beer market as a result of anti-regionalisation - brought about by improved industrial brewing technqiues, preservatives and mass transport.

Totally agree. I've managed to get about half a dozen converts though. If all ale drinkers did the same, we'd soon see beer back on at the pub. There's no reason why ale can't be as refreshing as a lager or a cider (I think it's more so) - it's just that people don't see it that way. The common misconception that it's warm and flat (both totally wrong) doesn't help.
CAMRA have done well in raising the profile of ale via beer festivals - things are a lot better now than they were in the 1970s.

Cider? Cider?!?!?

God damn, the pussification of males continues!

Beer is like society. It continues to get watered down.

I assume you mean John Major, the ex-Prime Minister? I have no idea who "John Mayor" is, but he wouldn't be a Major, would he? :roll:

If its off the tap in old style wooden kegs and its -20 outside then I dig the odd ale or two like that.

But drinking stubbies warm is just bananas.
