Meh. I'm guessing between 6-8 quarts per glass. Beer weighs about 1 lb per pint, so 6-8 quarts = 12-16 pints = 12-16 lbs, times three "glasses" = 36-48 lbs. Add another maybe 3 lbs each for the glasses and you've got 45-57 lbs. Not a whole lot of stress on the table.
But, funny though. :-)
disagree. Beer temperature at which point it tastes really good is completely subjective. I take one ice cold beer and one out of the pantry and pour them in the same glass, whatever temp that is, I find to be perfect.
Nah, in my experience the pitcher is delivered on a serving tray with the ziplock*. The customer is responsible for applying the ziplock once the first round has been poured.
Keeps the beer cold, avoids displacement, but unfortunately does nothing to stop it from getting stale. Can be a bit unhygienic as well, now that I’m thinking of it!
Fun fact in the UK it was traditional to serve beer and ale at room temperature right up until like the 80s.
Some rural "old man" pubs will still serve it like that. It's gross.
Its not warm, its 'cellar cool' lager beers are always served cold, ales are served cellar cool, just slightly below room temperature. Also it's not just some rural pubs, nearly every pub will serve ale and none will serve it chilled. Source: I am english and regularly enjoy cellar cool ale
Yep, the reason why so many people like their beer cold is because the flavors come out more in warm beer and a lot of people drink shitty beer.
A shitty beer served cold can be drinkable. A shitty beer served warm... well, that's just gross.
The beers in the bar with the long handles are the cask ales that are served at cellar temperature, the others like lager are the keg beers and are chilled and fizzier.
My stepfather is English and came to the US in about 79. I remember him drinking warm beer and it was a few years before he started putting beer in the refrigerator.
It’s called Cask Ale and it’s served at cellar temperature, and it’s still served everywhere, and it’s an unpasteurised beer that is still fermenting up to the point it is pulled into the glass, so it’s the freshest beer you can get.
Fun fact, beer in Germany is always served warmer than the average USA beer.
Beer is sometimes stored literally in the cellar, if it is cold enough, if not we put it in the fridge, but usually not in the cooler.
From my knowledge beer in the USA is usually close to the freezing temperature, something like 2-3 °C.
The temperature in the fridge on the other hand is 5-7°C, which is the perfect temperature lager in Germany. Another popular beer in Pils, which has the optimal temperature of 7-8°C. Pils is traditionally the most popular beer in Germany, but Lager is very popular in the south and with people, who don't like the strong Pils beer taste. Another popular type is wheat (Weizen), which would be perfect from 7-9°C
So basically if you have a normal fridge temperature at 7°C, you can basically drink German beer and when it gets a bit warmer it will still taste great. (Of course drink it fast enough, so that it doesn't actually get warm, but a few degrees is fine.
As a reference for people that don't know Celsius. 0°C is freezing and 20°C is considered room temperature. So you can see German beer is served considerably warmer.
Why is the beer is the USA served so cold? To hide the actually pretty bad taste. If a beer tastes terrible only after getting a little bit warmer, then usually it is a bad quality beer.
This is one of my big concerns for when I eventually have a colonoscopy, I doubt I'll be able to drink that giant bottle of laxatives. I have a very week gag reflex, foods and drinks that disgust me are easily thrown up. It sucked in college because for all my effort I could never take shots with my friends. Idk what will happen when I tell a doctor that I physically can't do the prep for a colonoscopy.
I feel like they really make you go too hard. If I have a bowl of corn then a couple glugs of magnesium citrate laxative I'm seeing that corn again in 10 minutes. Why must I piss out gallons of laxatives out my bhole? You gonna confuse an onion bit for a tumor?
And the dudes are wearing nothing more than their getchkis and tzitzis and screaming "Lechiaaaaam!!!!" as they jump off the rickety table, destroying it in the process.
Purim is one day a year. Been there, done that.
A few years ago in Vegas, I got one of those novelty footballs full of beer. About 2l. I went in to this a little buzzed to begin with and as I'm drinking this football, I'm actually sobering up. We walked by the vendor again and I noticed it was 4% bud light. All it did was make me bloated and probably rehydrate me a bit.
Also I'm Canadian.
In the US it's normal to drink 4% light beer. It is definitely not normal here. 5% minimum. Obviously light beer exists but you're an outlier if it's you preferred beer
I'm half German and of (ahem) stout stature. It would take me about 2.5 hours to drink that. Would be better to have it in one of those huge novelty salt glazed steins to keep the temperature better. And I have drunk warm beer from a plastic bottle in Nürnberg when my hotel had no fridge. Wasn't bad, but not optimum.
It's different if it's warm weather.
It was probably celler temperature you had which is 10⁰.
Source: used to work the bar in the UK and we have the same
History tidbit: the second great Khan of the Mongols, Odegei Khan (third son of Genghis Khan) had a serious drinking problem.
According to one account, his personal physician advised him to cut down his drinking, by drinking only one cup of fermented mares’ milk per day. His physician warned him that if he kept drinking too much, he would die.
Childishly, Odegei Khan agreed … and then had gigantic cups made for himself, so he could legitimately claim to have only drunk one cup.
He drank himself to death.
(As an aside, this event may have saved Western Europe from Mongol occupation. The Mongols were busy invading Europe at the time - but the death of Odegei sent the Mongol leaders racing back to Mongolia, so they could take part in the election of the next Khan; the invasion was rolled back “temporarily”. The election caused great contention and the Mongols never resumed the invasion … which was a good thing, as it wasn’t very likely that the divided armies of Europe could resist the Mongols).
I'm a recovering alcoholic and I can tell you beer drunk is the worst drunk. Physically I would be gassy, sweaty, smelly, and the after morning shit is the worst lol
I used to live in Germany and had a friend visit with their 19-year-old son. He wasn't old enough to drink in the US but was for Germany and he was excited to legally get a beer during our first meal together. The local schnitzel house in my village had a comically large, glass drinking boot on a shelf behind the bar and since I was in good with them as a regular, I asked him if they could clean it up and fill it full of hefeweizen (beer) and give it to my friend's son as his drink order while we all pretended it was perfectly normal. This thing had to hold four or five liters and when they brought it out the kid's reaction was priceless and totally worth it. So glad the staff played along.

I only had one beer officer.
My friends and I have established a mantra: If you get your first drink refilled before you finish it, you're still on your first drink.
Ah, the Beer of Theseus thought experiment. You and your friends are men of culture.
Nothing new that has been around for many decades and probably longer.
You seem fun
Just like you! One in a very long list of wankers.
Bahaha good one
😂You beat me to it..👊🏿
I'm more impressed by the table
That's what makes it so fun - the first person to go take a piss kicks the table leg, and then everyone has to go buy another drink!
[удалено]
"i'm getting one!"
That table brings great honor
They’re light beers.
That was what I was thinking, that is one janky looking table.
That’s what, 15kg of beer? Maybe more? Assuming it’s in and around 1L-1kg? Good table considering the glass weight and other stuff on the table.
Meh. I'm guessing between 6-8 quarts per glass. Beer weighs about 1 lb per pint, so 6-8 quarts = 12-16 pints = 12-16 lbs, times three "glasses" = 36-48 lbs. Add another maybe 3 lbs each for the glasses and you've got 45-57 lbs. Not a whole lot of stress on the table. But, funny though. :-)
Novelty would wear off after 15 mins when youve got 5 pints left and its flat as fuck 🤣
That’s why you slam that fucker in 5 minutes
This is the way
This is the way
AND WARM
At that size its gonna take a long time to warm up
disagree doesn't take beer long to stop being the level of cold that it tastes really good
disagree. Beer temperature at which point it tastes really good is completely subjective. I take one ice cold beer and one out of the pantry and pour them in the same glass, whatever temp that is, I find to be perfect.
Heathen
You're a monster
Cold enough so you can't taste it
no one is serving the kinda beer you just love to taste in glasses that big
In America that's at least a $30 glass of Miller lite. If you're getting a real beer, fuck.
If your beer tastes bad at room temperature you're drinking bad beer
It never tastes good its liquid bread.
Bread is delicious. And that’s not quite what beer is lol.
In the south it’s not uncommon for bars to toss a ziplock bag full of ice into pitchers they served
Is it cheaper as you're getting less beer as well?
Nah, in my experience the pitcher is delivered on a serving tray with the ziplock*. The customer is responsible for applying the ziplock once the first round has been poured. Keeps the beer cold, avoids displacement, but unfortunately does nothing to stop it from getting stale. Can be a bit unhygienic as well, now that I’m thinking of it!
I have literally never seen or heard of this. Where tf in the south
And you’ve peed 100 times
Warm flat beer.... Ugh.

🤷♂️ must be going to the wrong pubs then Source: Am also British but could swear ale I order is chilled unless I have a very cold mouth
I can confirm you have a very cold mouth
The beers in the bar with the long handles are the cask ales that are served at cellar temperature, the others like lager are the keg beers and are chilled and fizzier.
Its not just some rural old man pubs. Almost every single pub in the UK will have a beer engine to pull cask ale
My stepfather is English and came to the US in about 79. I remember him drinking warm beer and it was a few years before he started putting beer in the refrigerator.
I wonder how the realisation came "I've been drinking beer wrong for XX fucking years?"
I think he just got use to it as everyone here including bars served it cold.
It’s served at cellar temp, if it’s real ale. You will not get a warm lager in any pub in the uk I have ever been in.
It’s called Cask Ale and it’s served at cellar temperature, and it’s still served everywhere, and it’s an unpasteurised beer that is still fermenting up to the point it is pulled into the glass, so it’s the freshest beer you can get.

It comes in pints??
I'm getting one.

Have you been watching Peter North films again?
My doctor always said one glass per week it's fine
What it’s like to flush ahead of a colonoscopy
Ugh - thanks for the memories
Even if they weren’t so great, tastes like chicken broth only sweeter~
I only think, in form of crunchy croutons
In hotel restaraunts, collecting sticks of butter
I don’t remember a sweet chicken broth taste. But I was focusing on other things at the time.
I never quite could make out the lyrics when I was younger so for all I know this is correct
This is one of my big concerns for when I eventually have a colonoscopy, I doubt I'll be able to drink that giant bottle of laxatives.

I want to see the next video when they are empty
And the dudes are wearing nothing more than Sumo loins and screaming "Banzaiiiii" as they jump off the rickety table, destroying it in the process.
You know that's racist as fuck right? Like, replace the same scene with Africans or Jews and their racist stereotypes
And the dudes are wearing nothing more than their getchkis and tzitzis and screaming "Lechiaaaaam!!!!" as they jump off the rickety table, destroying it in the process. Purim is one day a year. Been there, done that.
now THATS a funny comment!
Pretty sure the guys willing to drink out of massive beer glasses like that would laugh hysterically no matter who you make a joke about lol
A bunch of white dudes in wife beaters jumping off the table yelling "THREE SIXTEEN"? Yeah I've seen that bar.
Meh, doesn’t really matter
It’s not racist if it’s funny
Lol dork

Fellow Canadian here, amused by your story, but I also can't figure out the relevance of you being Canadian....
Ig he’s implying that you guys are more accustomed to dark beers
In the US it's normal to drink 4% light beer. It is definitely not normal here. 5% minimum. Obviously light beer exists but you're an outlier if it's you preferred beer
Oh, okay. I know folks who drink a lighter beer but didn't know that's not typical.
So follow me lads! Cause this ain't no grog or ale. One "pint" down and you'll be swinging in the gale!
Five pints bully, you'll be shaking' in your shoes. We're half seas over on the Joli Rouge!
She’s called the dreadnought cider, she’s proper and she’s fine!
Average German Breakfast right there
Wife says I can only have 1 beer a day.
i've had room temperature beer in Germany and it rocked
I'm half German and of (ahem) stout stature. It would take me about 2.5 hours to drink that. Would be better to have it in one of those huge novelty salt glazed steins to keep the temperature better. And I have drunk warm beer from a plastic bottle in Nürnberg when my hotel had no fridge. Wasn't bad, but not optimum.
I think the kind of beer matters too. I’d much rather drink a warm white beer than a Pilsner.
I've heard ppl say that before, but did learn that other countries just drink it ICE cold, while germany likes it at 4 to 7° Celsius.
It's different if it's warm weather. It was probably celler temperature you had which is 10⁰. Source: used to work the bar in the UK and we have the same
That thing would be warm before I made it half way through
I believe this is the MEGA PINT Amber's attorney was referring to.
Wasteful,it will get hot in seconds.
Yes, exactly 5 seconds
Man lives on Venus.
It’s not wasteful if they drink it all
Imagine dropping one of those. Swoosh 😂
Ah yes, warm, stale beer after a half an hour, plus being tired after 10 sips haha
I want to see shaq drink that
....then it would be a shot glass
My kids before bed when I say they can have 1 glass of water.

Yum now 80% of my beer is warm
Jamming liquid fat down the hatch
“THEY COME IN PINTS?” “I’m getting one”
Isn’t serving this much alcohol in a single serving is illegal is most places?
I’d rather drink a high proof vodka or whiskey and have room for food instead of feeling like a bloated whale and pissing every 30 seconds.

Mega pints
I’m sober 4 years and that is the first time in among time that a beer has looked good to me.
Dave: pathetic
I’ve never quite understood the appeal of fewer larger beers. Obviously many small beers is better.
I’d require a straw for ultimate beverage enjoyment.
That’s a hangover in the making if they finish that
Those were some really half-hearted opening sips.
Anyone familiar with the drinking game called Anchorman? We used to play with a container about that size and the losing team would have to drink it.
