Don't think this has been mentioned so far, what kinda temp do you like your beer at?
Myself I'm actually kinda partial to room temp beer. IMO chilled beer is most often to dampen off flavours from bad beer. Bad beer tastes rotten room temp, but good beer you just taste more and fuller flavours than if you have it non chilled. Okay beer is just okay, no real difference, apart from it feeling easier on the stomach to not have a bunch of cold liquid in there.
Also tried some budget Loch Lomond. It does the job fine. Sure it doesn't say Loch Lomond up front, but if you read the back label it says it's produced by the Loch Lomond group or whatever, so it's Loch Lomond to me. High Commissioner they call it. Tastes Loch-ish Lomond-ish, but without the peat influence. At 70% of the cost, alright by me.
Speaking of whisky, another query. Have you ever actually seen anybody use a flask?
I got myself one, and the time I did bring it for a special occasion the person that spotted me using it (and got to share during the night) was very appreciative of seeing one in the wild (Not just for free booze reasons). I've never actually seen one apart from that. Feels like it's a relic of the past.
>>23003Never heard of that before, sounds interesting from what wikipedia describes.
Sadly don't think I could try to make a homemade one, we don't have pineapple ice cream here really, except for… Words become difficult here. Non-dairy popsicle pineapple outside with regular dairy-based vanilla ice cream inside, on a stick. I guess? Google translate seems to think non-dairy and dairy ice cream is the same though we have different words for them.
