How to drink the beer better?

1. Frosting your glass

This is most definitely the biggest myth in beer drinking; the joy of a frosted beer glass. Contrary to what your local sports bar is telling you, your frosty glass is most definitely not enhancing your drinking experience.

In fact, by frosting your glass you’re causing the beer to foam, killing its carbonation and the aromas. Instead of popping your glass into the freezer, use it at room temperature after giving it a quick rinse under the tap to make sure it’s nice and clean and won’t interfere with any flavors.

2. Drinking beer ice cold

As much as your mates like to brag about having “cold beers”, this isn’t how you get the maximum taste. In fact, most beers are meant to be served just above room temperature and many experts recommend leaving them in the fridge for just 10 minutes before drinking to allow all the aromas and flavors to be exposed.

3. Leaving it in sunlight

Ever heard of the word “skunking”? If not, you’re about to. Beer is not supposed to be in sunlight before it’s opened. Walk into a hot shop and pick up any bottle of beer from a sun-exposed shelf. Open it and smell it…smells off right? It’s been skunked.

Beer should always be stored in a cool, dry place and out of sunlight in order to keep its taste and flavor just right.

4. Keeping it too long

We’re all guilty of having that one beer in the fridge which has been there for months. Whether you’re saving it for a special occasion or for a cheeky drink next Monday, you might find it will taste off or different to a normal brew.

This is because the taste and flavor of many beers age quickly and therefore should never be kept for long periods of time. Drink it or throw it out!

Always drink your beer in a mug or glass made from natural materials

Drinking beer the right way: Pour beer into the center of your glass from a height of 2-3cms. Wait for the foam to settle and then top off the glass ? of its height

Drink it in small sips to appreciate the flavor

Always drink beer just above room temperature

Beer can be served with all dishes but goes particularly well with fatty meat, smoked food, and high-fat cheeses

Only store your beer bottles standing up and not laying down on their sides

Now that you’re aware of how to drink your beer and store it, there’s no reason you can’t go out this weekend and enjoy yourself in style.

Whether you’ve decided to pop to your local pub, get the beers in at home or take advantage of a few beer hampers, there’s nothing stopping you from having a good time with your favorite drink.

Finally, please enjoy drinking instead of excessive drinking:)
