giggles Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 sipping from the neck seems common but i say from a decent clean glass is better ,you can savour the flavour and rolling it around in a bigger swig . drinking from the neck has become a diabolical habit imo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ToddWeston Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 (edited) I prefer a glass - not so bothered about it being cold and ice well that's just wrong. I have a couple of gift with purchase beers glasses at home, I wish I brought them there is something about drinking Chimay from a Chimay glass. Edit: forgot to add the FIL uses the bottles as an ashtray so I prefer not to drink from them Edited September 5, 2013 by ToddWeston 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saakura Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 Always and only from a glass where my eyes can savour the froth and colour and texture. Last week i was drinking a very nice German cloudy wheat beer bought from Central, cannot imagine drinking from the can or bottle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post nong38 Posted September 5, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted September 5, 2013 Drinking from a bottle is not the done thing, youngsters do it because they afraid ti ask for a glass or they think its "cool". Civilised people drink from a glass, preferably one without chips out of it. You can't drink real ale from from a bottle unless they have decided to bottle to improve sales, but then people have to be taught how to behave and appreciate the delights that life has to offer and its not drinking out of a bottle, babies do that. I expect that this subject is not taught in Thai schools so there is no benefit for the locals here. Anyone seen drinking from a bottle should be shot, apart from babies. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neeranam Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 I would drink it out anything. I remember once drinking it out the bottle after the bottle had smashed and cutting my lips. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
breadbin Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 Years ago there was a study done on free peanuts on a bar. Basically they were tested (the left overs) and had something like 5 traces of different piss on them from where people went for a lash, didn't wash and stick their pissy fingers in the bowl!! Yuck. Anyway, I prefer from the bottle as if in a glass I drink to fast and get too lashed up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phuketjock Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 If you don't mind cockroach and chitchat shit or rats piss then by all means drink from the bottle, but I recommend you check where the bottles are stored in your preferred drinking hole and I have seen many times in many places all of the above crawling all over the stored beers. I prefer my beer in a chilled clean glass if possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I put my lips on the part of the bottle that has been covered by the cap, not sure why one needs to stick any more of the bottle into their mouth. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canman Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 (edited) You never know what has pissed on the bottle.Capture dirty cans.PNG that's an urban myth: http://www.bmj.com/rapid-response/2011/10/30/leptospirosis-cans-urban-legend You would be suprised what is contained in some of the foods you eat. An example I am familiar with is ice cream. I had a girlfriend in Australia who worked in QC at a factory which manufactured ice cream. She once showed me the "QC bible" in which was listed the various tests and max permitted levels of a variety of substances. One substance was foreign protein contamination. The allowable levels aproximated one cockroach per 100l of icecream manufactured. That figure always stayed with me and I doubt things are any differant in other countries.

If the item is still wet from the infected rat urine, it is possible. Once the urine has dried the bacteria dies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lempereur Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 I'm not fussy.. totster I am fussy, drinking beer from a glass is more tasteful than from the bottle, Belgian beer is one of the best, you do not drink it from the bottle, it is a sin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
p_brownstone Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 You never know what has pissed on the bottle.Capture dirty cans.PNG Exactly - I cringe whenever I see some macho type drinking directly from the bottle in Thailand. Leptospirosis is a major problem here, a major source is rat urine - and as anyone who has been around the Bar areas knows, rats are everywhere, particularly in the storage areas. In addition there is often a ring or rust under the car which is left on the bottle when the cap is removed. Drinking from a glass is both far safer and far more civilised!

Naam Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 i say from a decent clean glass is better some people couldn't care less what you say and drink their beer as they please. personally i wouldn't drink out of a "decent clean" glass but insist on a 100% clean glass. in Thailand the latter is never guaranteed because the glasses are washed with tap water. no 100% clean tap water = no 100% clean glass. glasses can be contaminated in many ways. the content of a beer bottle can only be contaminated in a brewery. insist that the bottle is opened in your presence... case closed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivan96822 Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 Beer snobs... I will take it right out of the bottle no problem.

Guest Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 It's the content over form which matters. Who am I kidding, drinking Leo. It's the cheap price, moderate taste, together with enough ethanol to kill the slowest synapses to make me absolutely fabulous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
