I thought you were a contractor - why aren't you drinking Dom Pérignon?

Everyone thinks he is, but now we know it's chilled water in a DP bottle

I think it's more of how you phrased the question rather than what you asked that he has a problem with.....

Well its elicited the response that its also common with Australians and South Africans so its not Bobdom but being from a warm country that is the most likely cause.

[woohoo]

might be an urban myth but doesn't warm water hydrate you faster.

Oddly they don't like their tulip beer that temperature it has to be cold. Probably so they can't taste how tulip it truly is.

It's supposed to be drunk cold. You might as well say a cup of tea is tulip because it only tastes nice when it's hot.

Not that cold.

If you drink things at 1 degree Celsius you can't taste it. Ales and stouts are beer and they are drunk at warmer temperatures.

Only tulip beer is drunk very cold as the taste is foul.

Maybe they should freeze ale then

Ales are designed to be drunk at warmer temperatures. Lagers are not... even fancy craft lagers taste nasty (to me anyway) at room temperature whereas I'll happily drink real ale at room temperature. Similarly I would generally not like warm white wine or warm champagne... the whole taste profile varies massively at temperature.

Ice-cold lager is intended to be refreshing and only delicately flavoured. Not liking beer that cold because it doesn't taste of much is just your taste. The fact it's not very nice when it's warm is secondary.

I can certainly taste lager at that sort of temperature.
