Hey bro, hey. Question for you. How did you choose your interior design stuff. I need help with this. I've had an undecorated bachelor pad for too long and I'm getting embarrassed. Bourdieu says that plebs chose their wall decorations for "effect". I don't want to be a pleb. Teach me. What was your thought process.

So, my jackass roommate says using a glass is no different than drinking it from a bottle, and there is especially no difference between one glass shape and another. What's your take on that?

Also, this is my winter beer.

>> No.4000502

>>4000460
To be fair I don't drink that much beer (sacrilege I know) but I know that the shape of the glass you use makes a pretty substantial difference for whiskey, actually a lot more so than you'd think. Or at least more so than I thought. I'd imagine it would work the same for beer. Doesn't change the actual taste but some shapes let you smell the contents better, and smell is a big component of taste. Without it you just have salty, bitter, sweet, sour, and umami. Everything beyond that is from smell.

>drinking beer from a bottle

I honestly don't bother with different glasses, just have some cheap standard pints. But holy shit, I can't imagine actually enjoying good beer out of the bottle. Actually getting some aroma out of the beer is the difference between a stout tasting like bitter piss and having a rich complex malty flavor.

Old Rasputin is not particularly difficult to find in north america. Any shop with a large "specialty beer" selection will generally have Old Rasputin. Hell a few of our regular grocery stores here carry that stuff. Then again I live in a state well known for loving craft beer.

Eh, we just started getting their stuff here in northern California. The IPAs are decent, not great. Their summer stuff, Radiant pale ale and Maiden the Shade ale, were pretty good imo.

Ontariofags, what's good at The Beer Store?
Beers I've already tried: Sleeman's Cream Ale, Canadian, PBR, Heineken, Moosehead, Budweiser, Coors Light, Samuel Adam's (Boston, Winter and Spring Lagers), Guinness, Ruddle's County Ale, Hobgoblin, Griffon (Blonde as well as Red), Stella Artois, Leffe Brown, Mill St Organic Lager and Tusker Premium Lager.
My favourite was Sam Adam's Winter Lager and least favourite was Coors Light. What should I try next? Keep in mind that it has to be available at The Beer Store. I appreciate the help.

I don't go to the Beer Store, usually go to the LCBO. So I'm not sure how the selection compares. This is all Ontario beer.

I prefer darker stuff usually.
Mill St. Tankhouse Ale is my go-to beer. It is widely available and has a pretty good flavour.

My hands-down favourite beer has to be Stonehammer Dark Ale, absolutely delicious.

Wellington Dark & Waterloo Dark are also pretty good.

If you want something lighter I like Beau's a lot. Just the lager, their seasonal stuff is hit & miss. Creemore Springs is pretty good too - but again, I like darker beers so I prefer their Ur-Bock to the lager.
Duggan's IPA #9 is tasty.

>> No.4003961

>>4003825
No, it isn't. It's just fairly sweet wine with cinnamon, orange, Christmas stuff. Always drink it warm.
Not sure what you are referring to with "put in it"? You don't have to put anything in it, it's already alcoholic. Wine if you must.
