How can you tell a good pint from a bad one?

    I'm sitting here having a bottle ( not a pint :P ) of coors light. I have this feeling from the first sip that it don't taste like the other one I've had. Is it a bad bottle? How would I know?

    Someone once told me that a bad pint is usually the first one from the top of the keg and the last one from the bottom of the keg. But how to tell you have been served ( or opened ) a bad one?

    Colour, smell, taste and level of carbonation usually.

    If it tastes bad, then its bad, if it tastes good, then its not Coors Light.

    You'll always notice it in Guinness, certain bars are known for having sh1te pints.

    you get the leprechaun on your shoulder to run down your arm and taste it first.

    Nothing worse than a bad Guinness, it's pure pain to drink and upsets your stomach as you know it's just sitting inside you causing havoc.

    You can just tell by the taste. Its really hit and miss. Some people say that the small countryside pubs pints taste like dirt because they havent been pouring many pints and its been sitting in the pipes for ages, but Ive had some of the best pints in countryside pubs, and some of the worst in city pubs.

    But over all, it really is hit and miss. Bad pint usually has this dirty stale/damp taste off it.

    Once a person knows a drink they can tell if they get a bad one. It only takes a bit of cop on to notice. Guinness is the main culprit. A bad pint is foul. I only order it in certain places.

    If you're served a Coors Lite it's a bad one.

    Me! :)

    Well. I'm probably being paranoid. I decided to use a local guinea pig and gave them to sip and said it was fine. I held the bottle up to the light and it's not cloudy. Drank it and it's got plenty of carbnation in it. I just feel it smells a little different from the other one I've had.

    Ah well, I'll be back later I guess lookin for cures for diarrhoea :pac:

    I had Budvar once ( European beer ) and I nearly died after it. It really was that bad of a beer.
