Do you put ice in your beer?

[Sacotool]

It's roasting hot, my beers are warm, and I don't want to wait for them to cool off in the fridge. I'm on the fence as to whether I should put ice in my glass or not......

 

[Sacotool]

Damn, I knew icing your beer was improper:Q

 

[Synthetik]

Ewhhh...don't do it man. As long as they are not extremely warm (like if they are just room temp.) I'd rather drink a beer that's room temp. then a beer with Ice Cubes in it.

But....try and stick'm in the freezer for a lil' bit. Of course...if you cant wait....

yuuuummmmm!!!!!!!Icing.


If the situation demands it it is ok.

 

[Sacotool]

I went ahead and threw a single cube in my mug, and it ended up melting rather quickly. It didn't water down the taste too bad, although it didn't cool it off much either.

Well, since I'm still under-aged to drink, I can't really tell you, as I don't drink beer too often

But I would assume ice cubes would be okay, since it's fine in soft drinks.. same principle, I hope.

Putting ice in your beer is not the same priciple as putting ice in your soda.

 

[Crysla]

Okay....but you'll have to go to the store probably to follow this advice.

Get cooler...
Lay cans on side inside cooler
Add ice
Add some water
Add some Rock salt
Do the Hokie Pokie, and turn your self around...
That's what it's all about.

Should have cold beer in less than 20 minutes...

i actually don't mind if a beer is room temp or "from the case"...too cold actually sucks

 

[Synthetik]

Sacotool,

I should have been more strict in my first reply. DO NOT PUT ICE Cubes in da beer! It's just not right.

another thing to try next time, is get a cooler full of ice water.
hold the can of beer/soda/ratpoison submerged in the ice, then twist the can vigorously for a minute or too.
that's supposed to cool down the thing in a hurry..
never tried it tho

Do you put ice in your beer?

No! That's disgusting!

I like what they do at Hooters. Once you've poured a glass or two out of your pitcher, the Hooters chick shows up with a plastic bag of ice that she drops into the pitcher. It works well. It keeps the beer cold, and prevents dilution.

Ice cubes in a perfectly good beer just ain't right. That's alcohol abuse. You do that and you'll end up in a 12 step program for beer hatred management or something.

i don't drink.

you can always get an air tight bag, put water, seal it, and then freeze it. no water added. you should be able to use one of dem eurosealer things (do those work>).

 

[Mday]

you can put your mug of beer in ice water... the water increases surface area in contact with mug. kinda working a bit backwards...

OR you can get one of those fancy things that is like a frozen ice pack with a hollow cylindrical opening like a straw.... liquids get cooled by going through the thin ice cold opening.

 

[hubbs]

I can't stand having any type of drink w/ice cubes in it. It's just plain nasty is all I have to say. ISHTA.

 

[Sephiroth_IX]

Put a bunch of cubes in there, circle them around for 30 seconds, then remove and drink. Works!

Here's an alcoholic beverage thread that was never locked ...

 

[Synthetik]

Why are alchohic beverage posts locked? Just out of curiousity.
