And a filet in a burger box with plastic cuttlery is also known as Outback's Curb-side Takeaway. Very popular actually...

Is there a reason for the rules other than ritual?

BigV · 06-23-2005, 11:15 AM

Dear rupip:

Thank you for a very informative post, an excellent first post. Welcome to the cellar. We all look forward to more dispatches from Salzburg.

If you can stand the racket, that is.

Sweet! I love the idea of different glasses for different brews! It's like a tea ceremony! I love stuff like this. It's what makes the world go 'round!

(I also love the smilie.)

I'll have one of each, and by the way call me a cab........

I tried to resist.

Really.

BigV · 06-23-2005, 06:30 PM

I feel the same way about coffee.

Except the part about not wanting a second liter.

(Referring to the beer pitch picture.)

But who would see this particular advertisement??? I'm assuming though, that the field's rather remote...

Head on down to "N'awlins" They like to sell 10oz beers, even in stores.

xoxoxoBruce · 06-23-2005, 11:03 PM

Thanks Rupert.

OK, so each type of beer must go in a specific type container. Do the different Brands, of say lager, get served in the same mugs or must they be Brand specific?

rupip · 06-24-2005, 02:17 AM

thanks for the warm welcome

@ prof. russotto: european cans are mostly 333ml - but I wanted to keep it simple, in order not to confuse you guys

- which was obviously an unnecessary fear!

@xoxoxobruce: usually the brewery pays quite a lot to the restaurants / bars in order to be the primary supplier. its is a very good business. They not only provide all the glasses with their logos on it, but sometimes also the tap technique or even parts of the furniture.
So it is quite unusual to not have the right glass for the desired beer. some bars however don´t give a shit about that rules, are independent and put the beer in a glass without any brand

xoxoxoBruce · 06-24-2005, 04:02 AM

Oh, I see. We've been seeing that with Coke and Pepsi here, buying exclusive rights at fast food chains and school campuses.
The beer companies commonly pay to paint their name on independant supply trucks here.
Thanks again for the beer culture lesson.

Beer comes in bottles, what the hell do you need glasses for?

Oh, REAL beer. I'll just lay down under the tap and you keep it running, all right?

LCanal - you're right.
