From my mormon friend. "This tastes like alcohol and dirt"
There was a Vietnam vet who use to do the same thing at a place here in Madison called The Buckeye. It's since closed but that guy was like clockwork; he would come in, say hello to everyone and everyone would hello back (NORM!), order his Miller Lite with a glass of ice, sip, OK SEE YOU EVERYONE HAVE A GOOD NIGHT.
I asked him about it once and he said it's from when he was overseas and got really tired of drinking warm beer.

There is no dirt taste to a dunkel... I was wondering if they were picking up dirt from a bier de garde or saisson.A dunkel. 5.5 percent
Almost about beer. . .
My wife worked yesterday, so I made the corned beef & cabbage. Of course I made it the right way so I get something like "it doesn't taste as good." What does my son (7) do but pipe in and say "Dad put a beer in it." Which leads to the whole "no wonder" etc., etc.
I didn't do anything stupid with the beer addition either . . . it was a bit less than a pint of a special bitter I brewed, watered down with a couple quarts of water. If anything it was probably the bay leaves and peppercorns boiling in there that made it taste so different.
My homebrew is more expensive and better tasting than the commercial beers here, so I wouldn't waste it on cooking when I can buy a bottle for much less. I save my beer for drinking
you say you would waste your cooking with beer rather than waste your beer with cooking? why would you not want to use a better tasting ingredient?
the advice for wine is cook with what you would drink, applies also to beer.

so the other day my friend invited me to his buddies house and I was in the middle of brewing my Pale Ale.. I said I would come over When I was done... And i told him i would bring my irish red over (generally i found it applies to many different palate) So When I arrived I heard three things I've never heard before...
1. I thought you were brewing a pale ale
Which I then explained the process
2. When do you add the vodka or do you use rum
Which I explained how yeast works
3. Then out of no where... This taste a little bit better than natty ice.. but it's no Bud light ( I never thought that beer would have ever be compared like that)
Hahahah weird stuff. I wouldn't know what to say to that.

"I need to find some new friends" comes to mind...
Cheers!

My best buds gf gave a polite yummy noise and told me she liked it cause it was a hoppy beer and she likes hoppy flavors rather than malty flavors. Couldn't tell If she was comparing it to other RIS's or just going
For the lingo.
Why would you disgrace Guinness with something like blue moon?
Me, to my sister: "I started brewing my own beer again. I'll bring you one when I come into town."
Sister: "Oh, great. What kind is it?"
Me: "It's an india pale ale"
Sister: "It doesn't have curry in it, does it?"
My BiL constantly dogs my beer so yesterday I beat the crap out of him with my wort chiller while screaming LACES OUT, DAN (he's a football coach). true story.
There is a mythical creature in my neighborhood who we call "the sipper" or "one-sip." He's about 60 years old I'd say, and comes into the bar you are in quietly. He asks, not unpolitely, for a miller lite, and a glass of ice. He pays, puts a dollar under the glass, and then pours the beer over the ice.
Here's the fun part. He takes one sip, and silently leaves. Since he has paid and tipped no one gives him any grief, but we all scratch our heads.
No matter what the style...scotch ale, red, porter, pale ale Whatever....SWMBO allways says,,,, tastes like budweiser!!!!!!!!!!!! hahahahahaha man that chaps my arse!!! lol.
Everytime I bring beer to dinner with my FIL he asks... "is this an ale?". I've explained to him a million times the difference between a lager and ale. I've also explained I don't make lagers. This has gone on for years and it seems silly but it makes me crazy. YES, IT'S A #$%&ING ALE!

Very common... I wish a had a buck for every time I've asked someone what type of beer they like, and they say "I like ales". For the people who like "lagers", I'd like to make a high gravity smoked Baltic porter. Hey buddy, it's a lager. Drink up.
jamiemc18 said:Stupidest comment I ever had was when I was at my gf's house for tea and I gave her mum and dad some to try
gf's mum(wine drinker): ewww its muddy and earthy (I had brewed a dark ale)
Gf's dad (actually drinks ale) oh aye its good better than anything we ever made.
Case proven
