    don't serve all beer "ice" cold. there are lots of beers that should be served at celler temperature

    Haven't had one of those yet. I much prefer my hefeweizen in a cold glass.


    actually, most beer shouldn't be served ice cold. the cold inhibits the flavor from reaching your taste buds. most beers should be served around 50 degree's. i keep most beers in the fridge and serve them in a room temp glass. the taste definaly improves as the beer warms up to optimal drinking tempature.


    Plus pretty much whenever possible, beer should be served in a glass. I mean your sense of smell contributes so much to how you taste things, and if you drink straight from the bottle your nose can't get a really good idea of what you are drinking.

    i am a christian. beer is the work of the devil.


    The guys who make this kind of beer, would probably disagree with you. Also they probably know a thing or two about God and the devil.

    I rarely drink a beer from the bottle. In fact, the only time I really do is when I don't have access to a glass.

    Tried some of my Golden Spike hefe's last night at the recommended serving temperature. The flavor was more rich. So glad I got light of this.

    But, now I have to deal with the fact that I've wasted so much hefe flavor in the past. :oops:

    Natty...reminds me of the beer bong days in high school. You definitely get what you pay for when your buying the likes of Natty, Keystone, and I must say it...Pabst. While I enjoy PBR, I find it far from quality.

    picked up some Magic Hat winter seasonal. very disappointing. it's dark which is nice, but the taste leaves soo much to be desired. almost has a metalic taste.

    I'm not a fan of winter brews by many brewers. They just don't do much for me, it seems like they try to over do the extra flavors and take away from the beer itself.
