ABOUT DRINKING WARM BEER........I TOLD YA!!! When you are out at your favorite watering hole, understand that most places store all their beers at one temperature, based on delivery method, not style of beer. Draft beers could be in the 38-42° range, bottles even colder. If your bar keeps their bottles in a huge trough filled with ice, know that those bottles could be close to 32°. Just like at home, if the beer you are served is too cold - a distinct likelihood - then allow it to warm up for a few minutes (warm hands make a perfect heating element, when placed against a cold, bulbous glass). Another logical action is if you realize the beer being served is well under the ideal temperature, go ahead and order your next one well before you finish your current one. Obviously, if youre at home, you be your own bartender, as well as patron. One other key note about ordering beer. While it may be logistically difficult to maintain each style of beer at its ideal temperature in a restaurant or bar, it is far easier to provide glassware at the correct temperature. Many places unwittingly think they are doing a favor to their beer drinkers by offering chilled or even frozen mugs. But unless you just really dont want to taste that Miller Lite, be sure to reject the offer of a frozen mug. Not only will it retard the beer from warming up to the ideal temp, but you may even get an unexpected gift in your beer - chunks of ice. Which melt, and turn to...water! On the flip side, you should also reject that mug or glass that comes right out of the dishwasher, and is visibly steaming. A hot glass is no friendlier than a cold glass.
