Not a ******* chance. You have guns in the house

You have guns in the house

And yet you would never know it. They surprisingly never go off on their own. Weird.

Also patty melt or GTFO.

That's what I was trying to change for you. I just figured you never had one properly made.


Or maybe just show me where the bad man touched you...

how did you keep it? how much was left in the bottle? how much did the brew deteriorate over the 3 days? i've done overnight with wine stoppers and the like with great success in the past, but never considered holding something more than that.

I got a 12oz flip top for like $3 at a local shop. Had some awful year old German lager in it. Drain poured and kept the bottle.

If I know I want to save I usually open the bottle and pour the 12 oz first into this. It always foams a little from the pour, just cap on foam and rinse off the bottle and put back in the fridge.

I've kept like a week doing like this and carb still pretty decent. The sooner the better, but I usually can't tell a difference from original pour to the flip top pour.

i wonder if it is better to do that or to recap your actual bottle without the transfer? the answer is probably whatever exposes it the least to air. i typically finish anything i open, but every now and then at the end of a tasting there are some bottles with booze in it that i just cannot finish so i cap them for tomorrow.

So from what I've read and heard, it's all about the amount of air between the beer and the top. So with a growler, being fresh means there isn't much air at the top, but the more you drink, the more air. With a flip top, you are removing as much air as possible. If you can make the pour with as little agitation as possible, it should be the best to keep the beer as fresh as possible.
