Best warm beer

meditraitor

With the festival season upon us I would like to know what beer you would recommend I bring!
Considering it will only be cold for the a couple of hours after arriving at the camp site.
The last time I brought 2 trays of fosters but it became pretty nasty by saturday afternoon.
I was lucky enough to have a few cans (backup) of bud which were not bad on the sunday. So ? any ideas guy / girls

Wasn't there some English beer you told me about that was drank warm? Well, at room temperature at least.

Can you not bring an ice box? Or whatever those yokes that you put stuff in to keep cold are called.

Ah sure you'll be hammered anyway, you won't care what you're drinking!

Those would be tranditional warm ales. Not something you can get too regularly though. Try some of these perhaps?

Cellar temperature, I was talking about.

just take spirits...takes up less room and not too bad warm

AlmightyCushion

I'd go with spirits myself. Get a load of vodka or whiskey and you're laughing.

yeah, i was stuck with a crate of warm amstel last year, not making that mistake this year. Am bring a bottle of spirits.

But i am also bringing a fold-up wheelbarrow and am going to buy a bag of ice from the vendors and fill the wheelbarrow with the ice :cool:

Room temp is 18-22c, a bit to high for most beers, English beer are best a celler temps around 12c or so

If refrigeration is a problem porter and stouts hold up very well to the heat, Jamaican Dragon Stout is an interesting one as is available around Dublin.

the women or the beer ?


if all else fails you can cool beer by evaporation wrap it in a wet cloth or something, a fan will help the cooling , or better still drive whilst holding the can out the window - eh actually that might not be such a good idea

Fink Brau from Lidl is brill as a warm beer. From the bottle. Anybody ever try it B4?

The worrying thing about this though, is that you may start believing you are a Geordie and can actually walk around in the middle of winter in nothing more than a pair of very loud shorts. It does make you feel like a sherman tank as well, ie, you can run through walls and fight loads of Germans so beware. It's great tuff though :cool:

Alternatively, try a bit of (here I go again) Hobgoblin http://www.wychwood.co.uk/beers_hobgoblin_cask.htm it's fuggleicious

Tuborg!

Went to the Danish festival Roskilde a few years back and they actually sold crates of the stuff in the campsite. We dug a hole in the ground and it kept them cool for a while until we got lazy and started throwing all our rubbish in it. Anyway I still enjoy a few warm cans of Tuborg every now and then, brings back good memories
