What's the Perfect Beer?

My company has the answer. My store is one out of 10 right now to serve the Perfect Beer, and believe me it is great!

It is the perfect temperature, served in the perfect glass, and given the perfect pour.

My guests love it! We have also been given a chill chamber to keep our aluminum bottled beers at 22 degrees. Now that's a cold beer. I can't wait to crack one open myself and drink it when it's 120 degrees outside this summer, here in Arizona!

Beer taste better at Applebees!

Have you ever had a perfect beer?

This is my cheer that I came up with for the Perfect Beer:

At 22 degrees, we make those bottles freeze
38 and less, that's what keeps it fresh
With the perfect glass, that's what makes it last
and with a one inch head, it leaves you room for bread
That's our Perfect Beer, so come on now let's cheer!

Beer Taste Better At Applebees!

The perfect beer is the one in front of me right now.

Have you ever heard of the comedian Jeff Dunham? He is a ventrilaquist (I'm not sure how to spell that) Anyway he has this puppet named Buba J and he LOVES BEER. When asked what's your favorite beer, his line is "An open one"
He also said that AA is for quitters and he knows that he's had too much when he runs out :o) It's pretty funny stuff. You can find it all on You Tube

Also, did you know that when there are bubbles on the inside of your beer glass, it means that that spot is dirty?!

I was at the WoW convention last year, and we were all lucky enough to do a beer tasting with Gordon Reisch, a Master Brewer for Anheiser Busch. Before that weekend, I had never really enjoyed beer. Now that I know what I am looking for in taste, temperature, and what they do on your palate, I LOVE beer. To quote an old Tom T. Hall song "Whiskey's too rough, champagne costs too much, and vodka puts my mouth in gear, what I'm trying to say is I like Beer!"

(By the way, you're right, those aluminum bottles at 22 degrees are perfect!

Kristen, I've been curious about this for a while, so perhaps you could help me with a question I've had about this process. I'm assuming this is beer such as Budweiser, Coors or Miller (perhaps even Lite/Light), as I don't know any others that come in aluminum bottles. They all clock in at around 4.5% abv. How does this beer not freeze at 22 degrees fahrenheit? I realize you have to take into account alcohol having a lower freezing point but, at 22 degrees, even a much higher alcohol beer (we're talking 10%+) should theoretically freeze. Budweiser and other industrial american lagers should freeze around 29 degrees or so. Maybe even a little higher. I'd love to know how they keep this beer from turning into a beersicle.

Also, seeing bubbles on the side of your glass doesn't necessarily mean dirty. It just means there's a nucleation site there. Could be a micro imperfection in the side of the glass.

It's the special aluminum that helps prevent it from freezing.

I know it's not really dirty, but it is not Beer Clean, and it does affect the taste of the beer. Especially, if you have a frozen glass that was put into a chiller before it was completely air dried.

Just so you know Jeff, Lagunitas is coming to the Taste of the Nation, Philadelphia on June 2nd at the Loews Hotel in Center City, and also they are doing a "Beer Tasting" Dinner with Patrick Dinh of Tuscarora Mill Restaurant in Leesburg VA in July. Not sure where you are based out of, but just thought you might want to know.
