Skunked Beer

I usually use the beer that has warmed back up after being chilled for cooking brats or beer battering fish. :)

 

Cooking... brats..?

Will these beers be okay to drink if I chill them back down?

NO! No. Nonononononono. No.

 

Unless you like to barf. The taste will be heinous and not worth it.

 

Don't go there.

You snob! (I agree though) That's why I only use them to cook. Work just fine for that, skunkiness doesn't carry into the food

That's... kind of what I thought it meant.....! ( :P ) Took me a while to realize it meant Bratwurst. I think. :blush:

As said earlier in the post, light effects beer. Clear bottles are the worst. You will get the skunkiest taste from a clear bottle. Green bottles don't block enough light either. That is why beers like Heineken, Becks, or Pilsner Urquil have a skunky aftertaste.

 

Tempuratures also effect beer. If you chill a beer and then warm it up, and chill it again, it's going to have an advers effect.

 

The best way to avoid these problems is to drink Milwaukee's Best or Natural Light. Those beers already taste like shit, and its very difficult to get them to taste worse than they already do. ;)

Depends on the beer-betcha Mic Ultra deosn't skunk, 'cause it's skank(y).

 

Beer Advocate has an ongoing thread on really bad beers (in the taster's opinion) called "Drain Pours."

Never had a bad beer in my life and many were warmed and chilled over and over again. In fact when I buy cold beer at the store, sometimes I am to lazy to put it up right away. So, it gets put in the fridge when I want to put in. Could be an hour, could be two days later. Never once had any beer change its taste or appearance. It has always been perfectly fine.

I drink beer every day, so I do have some experience with this.

 

I once knew/worked with a guy that had me drive to "Timbucktoo" and back, because he could not drink what was in the store. We were working out of town. Everyone was cool with whatever was available. Not this f***ing beer snob. I must have driven 25 miles until he settled for something and still complained because it was not what he really liked. We let him go shortly thereafter. Not because of the beer, but because he was an asshole.

 

 

Long live Natural Light and Busch. Its as good as any other and half the price. It also has a crisp, light non-skunk taste and smell.

Now if you insist, and you are buying, I will drink whatever you like.

Just start drinking this:

Every can tastes a bit different... some have subtle hints ranging from apple, grape, plum, peanut, duck liver, old cottage cheese, citrus, polymers, asparagus, yeast, or graphite.

Graphite? Like the stuff they use to make pencils with?

Yep. If you've ever chewed through a pencil... that taste is in this beer.

Maybe, but my wallet is relatively healthy and I am satisfied with the beers I like. Oh and I prefer a can any day over a bottle. So, no silly light gets in mine.

This is a prime example of a beer snob. If I don't like what they like, there is something wrong with me?

I've only ever chewed through a pencil once - stopped before I got near the graphite.

There is nothing wrong with you aside from your taste buds. :D

Imagine if you could drink a Bud Light and enjoy it as much as your favorite skunk beer?

Everyone has their own opinions. Just happens that mine is always right........lol

 

Drink on friend!

How can you tell if any Bud product is skunked? They always taste skunky to me.

Nothing wrong with you -- and I am most definitely a beer snob.

 

People drink beer for different reasons. I drink beer strictly for the taste, and I like different styles depending on the mood I'm in, or, if I'm having a beer with a meal, what kind of food I'm having. See? Totally f**king snobby. Other people just want "a beer," dammit, either because they're thirsty and beer is their thirst-quencher of choice, or they want to consume mass quantities to get a buzz on and want an uncomplicated beer that goes down easy.

 

That you belong to the latter group doesn't mean there's something wrong with you. Just means you like shit beer. :P

Well... it is like $8.99 for a 30 pack.

 

...but you do have a hangover before you even finish a can.

In college my fraternity bough a palette of skunked Goebels thinking, "how bad could it be? We drink horrible beer all the time!" Well, it was pretty bad. It was used to give to freshman or people we didn't like, and only drank by the rest of us when we didn't plan on getting enough alcohol or beer for the house and we didn't have anything left before the next trip to the store. Even in retrospect, I still think we spent our money wisely (I forget how much it cost, but is was an insanely cheap price).

This was the beer of choice in college... 5% alcohol so we were getting more bang for the buck :LOL:

For some reason I hear you saying this in a strong English accent wearing a skirt.
