Draft Beer Bar Beer drinkers Poll: Bottled, canned, or from the keg...?
Beer drinkers:
How do you like your beer?
Out of the can?
Out of bottles?
Or from the keg (draft beer)?
There are advantages & disadvantages to all 3 kinds.
Bottled usually tastes the best but they are a pain to recycle.
Glass is also very breakable and much heavier than cans.
Canned doesn't taste as good as bottled but it gets cold quicker and they weigh less & are easier to recycle than glass.
Kegs (draft beer) are the cheapest (per glass) and has the ''draft'' taste but you have to buy a lot of it at a time unless you go to a bar for ''draft'' beers. It also tends to be more 'foamy'.
So which kind do you prefer? Why?
(Adults only, please)
I don't drink anymore (quit in 1991) but when I used to drink I preferred Genesee Cream Ale & regular Genesee beer in bottles. I'd drink it ''on tap'' in bars sometimes, too.
Cans were a last resort...
i know what you mean....bottles are very easy to break. especially when you are drunk. and cans....get the can taste. and kegs are very foamy.
where im from though....we normally drink coors light...or genny out of cans. so im going to say cans

How to Clean Draft Beer Lines
My wedding reception site has no bar-any ideas for setting up a simple bar with just wine and beer?
My wedding reception site has no bar, but we would like to serve wine and beer. My fiance thinks a plain keg is too "redneck". Any ideas for creating a bar with beer and wine without a bartender? Can we rent a draft machine or something like that? We are having a champagne fountain but we want to offer other options. Thanks for any input!
Contact your local rental company. They would have all of the equipment to setup a bar. You can also purchase the alcohol from a place like Costco or Smart & Final. It will be inexpensive and you will more than likely be able to return the unopened bottle with no problem.
