Question: What would a reason be for Letting a Beer warm up after being chilled in the Refrigerator!?
I know some cultures, German for one, Drink it warm!. However, I have heard of a German taking a cold one out and letting it warm up unopened even though there where room temperature beers available!.Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
Cold numbs your taste buds, which is why most American Lagers suggest really cold temps and are designed to be more thirst quenching than flavorful!. That's why they call those kinds of beers "Lawnmower Beers", cause that's what you'd go for if you were really hot!.
Other beers are designed to be tasted, so they are served cool, but not freezing cold!. It's a misconception that English beers and the like are served 'warm', but relative to how cold US lagers are, it is warm only by comparisson!. Usually it's cellar temperature, which is 55-60 degrees!.

Buy beer for the flavor and leave thirst quenching to ice water!. Cheers!Www@FoodAQ@Com

Most European brews, and a lot of better US brews taste better when not really cold, Temp recommendations vary from 40 to 65 degrees!. They really taste better when they ar a little warmer!. The cold brew numbs you taste buds and takes away from the experience!. Try it yourself, drinking the same beer cold and after it's had a while to loose some it's chill!. The better the brew the more difference you notice!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Good question here!. The beers from Europe are sometimes served at room temperature of 65* F!. It is still chilly but not cold like here!. They also us more hops and other flavorings in their beers while beers here are made from rice!. Our beers are weak and watery but that is what we have grown to like!. If a beer is cold and brought up to 65* F you can really taste the difference even in our light beers!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

traditionally beer was meant to be drank warm!. it stays fresher refrigerated though for two reasons, the temperature, and also fridges are dark!. chilling the beer first reduces the carbonation, and therefore the foam!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

You would take a higher quality beer out to warm up a bit so you can better taste the flavors!. Your German may have wanted a warmer but not quite as warm as room temp beer!. !. !.Www@FoodAQ@Com

The only thing I can think of IS IF a slow pokey drinker was drinking it - non intentional!.


I used to only drink warm beer, liked it better for some dumb reason!! Www@FoodAQ@Com

That and possibly for cooking - like if you were adding beer to a batter!. Www@FoodAQ@Com

Poor electrical like the British!?
Dark Beers like Stouts or Bach's taste better when room temp!.
