The Big Fat Beer Thread
TRVA123:
They've actually found in studies that it is the weight of the bottle, it makes it seem more important. Its like if you're drinking out of a heavier glass vs. a light glass.
Although I would agree that canned beer will taste different from bottled beer. Bottles will let some light in, which can change the flavor of the beer.
I'm not saying one is better or worse than the other, just that there is both a psychological factor and a chemical factor.
i think one of the best pumpkin beers is from Lakefront, their barrel aged pumpkin is amazing.
Method of Madness:
My favorites are The Greater Pumpkin by Heavy Seas (which is bourbon aged) and Warlock by Southern Tier (a pumpkin stout).
Dogfish's Punkin is solid, but I haven't had it in years.
bhtooefr:
Really, the way to do it is a double-blind test, with the beers poured into glasses.
Method of Madness:
Preferably not with Coors Light.

Listen, dude, I know it's not good. It's just better than fucking budweiser. It's tastier than Michelob Ultra, the beer I just sampled tonight on my aunt's urging.
Don't judge me. I can't afford all the good beer I want, and I'm stuck in a place without a decent fucking bar. The closest one's main claim to fame is that it's the cheap strip club where a major meth syndicate in a nearby state capital got its start.
I came here to review Michelob Ultra as being fairly fucking tasteless. It has that in common with Bud, and Bud Lite. At least Coors Light has that weird nutty flavor, when it's from a glass, anyway.
Also, the 'weight of the container' theory's off, because I had a 12 oz. bottle and a 24 oz. can. Giving value to the heavier, the aluminum can should have won, despite the lesser flavors.
