I used to use ice when I visited the outlaws up North. In and around Hua Hin you can normally get it cold enough - the trick then is to drink it before it gets warm :wink:

It has to be cold for me so its ice ice baby all the live long day...

Don't like fizzy beer anyway being a real ale crusty beard so the ice melting makes it a bit flatter... :cheers:

I normally start with a few and then go onto the red wines for maximum spinny effect.

I'm with Big Boy! In Udon, I found I had to use ice - large bottles, sans condom, decanted into mugs just warmed up too quick. In HH, mostly small bottles with condom (whatever the neoprene sleeve thingy is called) seem to retain the chill long enough. I've had beer in HH which was over chilled to the extent that it turned to ice when the cap was removed!
Had enough of the trolls. Going to sleep. I may be some time....

I know what you mean, and that first drink of the day up north is usually before the sun is fully up!

Ice and the juice of a whole lime. MMmmmmm

When that cold sour taste hits the back of my throat I know it's been a god day and the night will be even better when I, like RC hit the vino.

Sacrilege I know but hell, I paid for it. :cheers:

That was going to be my reply exactly. Makes for a short evening or afternoon though if someone keeps filling your glass. Pete :cheers:

Ice in beer! disgusting, agree with previous post stick to drinking the small bottles which will keep cold when it is put in a stubby (condom) or if you still insist being cheap Charlies and buying the biggy ask for an ice bucket and put the beer in the ice between pourings.

The only water that should be in beer is the water used in its brewing. I would have never even thought of putting ice in beer until I moved here and still don't allow it unless the beer is not cold... then it is the last one I'll have at that establishment, or if I know I'm in for a long afternoon of large Changs with the boys. Then I allow it so as not to get drunk too fast... :mrgreen:

If you were to try that in a Pub in Australia, you would either; not be served, or thrown out the door. Probably both, in that order! :cheers:

It is - without doubt - a crime :twisted:

However

At our place we offer it cold from the fridge or if a customer wants it, we have a supply of 'Iced' glasses in the freezer, with or without a layer of ice in the bottom.

Each to his own - the choice is yours :thumb:
