But this has given you the chance to drink coffee in its natural state - black, hearty, rich and flavorful. Coffeehouse coffee is just a drink that mixes in a bit of coffee — 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sounds like not being able to go to his local coffee shop is really grinding his beans. 5 hours ago, henrietta said: I used to buy coffee when going to work, and now during the lockdown I just drink black untasty coffee, and I miss the latte from my favorite coffee shop Welcome, why straight to black untasty coffee? There is something in the middle, it's like saying my car broke, I guess I need to crawl to work backwards, quite the extreme from one to the other. I know it says henrietta, but I can't see from here and these days your not supposed to judge that by looks. . 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do realize there are laws against things like that. But I have to say, we left to go out of town once and I forgot coffee in my old pot, when I got home it had fuzzy mold 1/2" thick. I had to scrub it, and run it through the dishwasher a couple of time before I got enough nerve to use it again. 8 minutes ago, dirtmudd said: Maybe that's the cure for covid 19..

I’ve heard the reason Corona (the beer, not the 🦠) tastes like pizz water is due to being bottled in clear glass bottle. Maybe Modelo actually tastes good and Corona actually sucks, clear bottle or not — 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators dtel Posted April 27, 2020 Moderators Share Posted April 27, 2020 Or Modelo taste terrible when bottled but changes for the better in the clear bottle. I don't think they see much light after bottling and surely not after being sold. Then 30 minutes later your throwing it away, your done with it, it was only rented. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Modelo actually tastes good and Corona actually sucks, clear bottle or not — I think I agree with you if I understand you correctly ... I've heard the criticism of clear bottles as well as the criticism of green bottles (probably propagated by brown bottle lovers in dark, smoke-filled rooms); but I think the distinguisher is the beer not the bottle. if your beer sits there so long that the sunlight will alter the taste of the beer, you probably have a bigger problem than the bottle. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Belikin and Crown - I think. It was kinda funny because once in a while there was a beer shortage and we heard the 2 beer companies were sabotaging-sinking each others beer barges from the mainland. Did a tour of the rum factory in Orange Walk-best rum I ever had. Supposedly filtered through animal bone charcoal. Flew over huge, what used to be Coca Cola orange orchards (Fanta), now all growing weed. Good times. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
