Ice cold beer at Indy

6130 · 08-19-2018, 02:51 AM

Beer is a very serious subject to me. I have traveled the world over, to experience great beer.

Only American adjunct lagers, light lagers, and American malt liquors (semi-fermented rice water products marketed by mega-breweries as a potable liquid) need to be served ice cold, because they taste and smell so bad that ice cold is the only way they can be tolerated.

The very best beers (Imperial Stouts, Barleywines, Belgian Quadrupels, etc.) are served at room temperature.

Just remember no matter how much you pay for your beer " You only rent it "

That is definitely the truth!

That might be true with overly-carbonated urine-colored low-alcohol American mega-brewery adjunct lagers, but unfortunately it is not true with truly great beers. I'm currently packing an extra 15 pounds above my normal healthy fighting weight, at least 10 of which seem to disappear if I abstain from beer for a few weeks.

Yet we digress from the original topic of how to keep beer cold or for those that like beer at a temperature other than "real cold"--- what can be done other than owning stock in an
ice company or driving back and forth from the local retailer in the Indianapolis area to buy ice----we have several suggestions from dry ice to inside a RV refrigerator to those frozen ice" things" in the cooler--Anybody got any other constructive ideas??? FED 387

I will do some testing with the frozen ice "things". What would you like to see? I'm new to the Stocker game and not sure how you even cool down your "beer intake". But, I would love to see if it can be done. I do know that I can freeze a beer with a reusable ice pack. Disclaimer: I do not sell the Arctic Ice, we just manufacture it and thought it might work in this situation. Please let me know your thoughts.?

Chad, I see a real opportunity here...you can make custom ice packs for each intake casting! No mess, no hoses, just slap 'em on! Sign me up for a pair of 954s for Chevy!
