Best bottle ever:

I can't recall what the actual beer is like, but the bottle is cool.
At $100 a case though, it's not your everyday drinking beer. I think the exorbitant cost is because of the elaborate bottle design :D

I had one of these last night (thanks flatmate!). Not too bad but nothing particularly special. Pretty average lager, easy to drink, very light in colour and taste (sadly). The bottle is awesome though :D

I think it was about $18 a 6 pack?

I will remember to quote this next time I go to a snobby beer bar.
" You sir are a prick!"

I reckon that drinking out of the bottle is preferred for beer that you could do with out smelling. For anything tasty a glass is better but sometimes you just gotta do what you gotta do.
 
if its cheap beer, i have no issues drinking it from a can or bottle; otherwise i prefer stuff from a glass. the only time i think its weird is when i order a beer and its served in a competitor's glass. such as ordering a delerium and getting it in a chimay glass.
 
If I had to choose between a cold bottle, or a warm glass, for the beer to be served in - the cold bottle would win every time. This assumes of course that we're talking about lager. I prefer medium ales for taste and actual enjoyment of the drink.
 
When you put it that way. Sometimes a bottle is better.
You're making me think of a glass that's come straight out of a dishwasher at the pub and is hot and still smells of detergent= shithouse
 
Damn good beer, I love amstel light, Heineken, Beck's, and cheap but very good beach beer Is Miller High Life lol $3 for 4 16OZ Cans., I live in south fl , I also prefer the bottles, if caned I would like a cup please :)
 
i'm normally a lager person but have recent branched out into ales and stouts and have liked what I have tried so far. I had a bottle of this the other day

"Paradox Smokehead is an Imperial Stout aged in whisky casks from the Isle of Arran distillery. The smooth, robust stout has been completely infused with the aromatic fruit and ginger flavours of the Arran malt to deliver a deliciously complex flavour. "

really smooth and warming with that kind of coffee taste that stout has and the vague taste of whisky underneath as well, also ridiculously smool for 10% abv! also had another bottle from the same brewers

which is a really tasty IPA really bitter and fruity and refreshing
 
I've actually had pretty bad luck with them overall (then again, I've been in the Pacific NW, where we're spoiled by the beer selection).

That would be horrid. People have been murdered for less.
 
I almost always need a glass to drink beer out of unless it's macro swill.

Right now all I have is a weizen glass and a yuengling pint glass. Looking to buy a tulip glass in the near future.

You're really missing out on the beer drinking experience if you're not using a glass for a highly aromatic beer like a IPA/DIPA. It really is a sin.

My drinking years are not very many, but nonetheless, this is a damn good beer! I may try something I like better one day, and I hope I do, but for now, this is it.
