jahilia Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 2 Buck Chuck - I read that they buy the surplus from regional wineries...so you could be getting Gallo wine, or you could be getting $70 wine...and you can taste the difference every couple weeks (I live in Santa Cruz...so there's a big turnover - 55,000 pop., 5,000 homeless). Still, for $1.99 it's worth the risk. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

street spirit Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 jim beam and miller high life. my mesh-back hat is not ironic. i brought back a couple of 24 packs of the champagne of beers after visiting your fine nation a couple weeks ago. at 60 cents a can it's approximately 1/2 the price of the absolute cheapest beer in BC.

explodo Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 I'm all sick n' shit so I just had some Emergen-C. Next up, lots of coffee to counteract my benadryl and nyquil (I ran out of the day variety). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Jules Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 Is there anything better than an ice cold Sam Adams poured freely into a chilled pint glass? The more head the better. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cryptique Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 A good beer should never be served ice cold. Ice cold is for the Budweisers and Coors of the world. Now, if we were talking about Samuel Smith's Oatmeal Stout, served at the proper temperature -- then no, there would be nothing better than that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EL the Famous Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 A good beer should never be served ice cold. Ice cold is for the Budweisers and Coors of the world. I know that's the 'official' European take on how beer is supposed to enjoyed, but I can cite dozens upon dozens of examples of what could be considered 'good beer' that taste wonderful cold.

WilcoFan Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 I have been wanting some Hoegarten but I can't find it anywhere near me. I hate asking the guys at my liquor store to order it for me because 1. they are idiots.b. they will probably charge me way to much. I know that I did the 1 and b thing on purpose.

Well, I'm having one right now, and enjoying it thoroughly. Next time I will just say I like Sam Adams and leave it at that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

While my preference is generally in line with cryptique's guidance above, the proper way to drink a beer is how you enjoy it most, be it room temperature, cellar temperature, ice cold, or anywhere in between.

I don't enjoy beverages served warm, save for tea, coffee, etc. and even then I like it hot. A cold Guinness for me, please. I've been drinking these this summer for the first time and really enjoy them. I went to a nice bar around the corner for the first time last week and they have it on tap. They won me over as a repeat customer with this alone: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
