Does beer taste the same as it smells?

I passed by the Budweiser plant todey, and damn...brewed beer smells good! Most foods taste the same way as they smell right? Is beer the same way?

try it yourself

and in my opinion, most beer smells terrible

there is a huge miller plant down the road from Karens work... driving past there makes me want to puke. so yea, beer taste like it smells :D

mmmm beer

why, how old are you?

Beer smells and tastes like shit.

My dad works for the Budweiser brewery here in Houston. What you're smelling is the grain cooking so that they can start actually making the beer. They cook it under a lot of heat and have to let some of the pressure out of the cookers, and with the pressure comes some of the smell. Did you pass by the brewery in Van Nuys? I've been to Wisconsin, Chicago, Cincinatti, Fort Collins (Colorado), St. Louis, and L.A. with my dad when they've sent him for training, so I've learned quite a bit about it. Even though, I'm not old enough, he's let me try beer and alcohol before, and once you've got a few in you, you really don't care what it tastes like anymore.

Beer doesnt particularly smell great, but an ice-cold pint on a hot summer afternoon tastes about as nice as anything :D

beer is yummy sooo good in fact i'mma go get one now

and once you've got a few in you, you really don't care what it tastes like anymore.

very true. just play a few games of beer pong and then you can drink til you pass out.

IMHO beer tastes like shit, but i'll drink it if i'm at a party. i usually pound shots but nobody buys hard liquor any more.

There's a Budweiser brewery around town and it smells like wet bread or something when I drive by. Not that I'm a big fan of that brand but it does taste better than that smell.

i live in milwaukee and when I go to Brewer games at Miller Park its smells pretty bad for like 2 miles cause Miller brewery is right there.

Beer smells and tastes like shit. I really don't get the fasination for it.....

Some do, some don't

I brewed my own beer, and it smelled f'king awesome, the best beer I've ever smelt, but it tasted like shit.
But that was 5 months ago, and the beer has improved dramatically, and kicks ass....except the last 50ml is horrable

american beer sucks......try ukranian, russian, or canadian beer and you'll be happy you did

it might suck to you but when you grow up around it and thats all u drank...then it doesnt suck so much

-Monty Python

Did you pass by the brewery in Van Nuys? .

Yup, that's the one. So the smell is just grain cooking? Damn, and I thought that's what beer tasted like...

My dad: "here son, have a sip of this beer"
me/age 9: " *sip* EWWWWWWW, this tastes awful"
My dad: " damn right,don't ever drink in your life again"
*leason learned*

OH YEAH!!! Ukranian & Russian beer!!! They're known for making the best!!! :rolleyes:

The best tasting beer I've had comes from the Lost Coast Brewing company. Smoothest beer I can think of, and I've had a lot of different kinds from all over the world.

When I was younger (many many many moons ago :mad: ) I tried it out and said "you guys like this crap" but like everything in life one gets accustomed to things and I like it.

BTW it is true, american beer is very watery compared to other beers around the world. I myself like belgium white.

Hey boss pass me a beer. :biggrin:

TS out (to the deli to get more beer for work)

Belgian beer is very, very good indeed :D

There are actually some very tasty american beers. They are made made very small companies. Look in Specs to find a bunch of good stuff. I prefer beers from Europe.

beer is yummy sooo good in fact i'mma go get one now
Yes, just talking about it makes me......... Hey wait!!!! I've already been drinking for 2 hours!!!! Alot of people say they hate the taste of beer. Me too, when I was 17-18. After I had several whiskey hangovers(and fights.) I decided it was time to move to something cheaper and less dangerous. I've since then been head over heels in love with beer, be it cheap beer, Hamms, ect. I love Molson, St. Pauli Girl, Bass, Budweiser, Miller, ect. In closing..... Beer is good.

Thank you. Yes there are. I worked with a guy from England. He drank his Bass and Guiness. But he loved Budwieser, Lienkugel, ect. When I lived in Mo, there was a small brewery called Boulevard Brewery in K.C.M.O., that he loved. They don't distribute nationwide, it's a shame because I have to travel 8 hours to get my beer of choice. My point is there are a few American beers that deserve recongnition. They are not watered down or lacking in flavor.

Belgian beer is very, very good indeed :D


Is stella artois Belgian?

Yep. There are better belgian beers though :)

If you can drink black coffee, or coffe with little cream and no sugar, then coffee kicks ass.

I mean beer...

Years ago I went to a party and decided that I didn't much care what my beer tasted like as long as it was cheap and ensured a lack of memory, so naturally I bought a flat of TNT...I drank one and tried to give the rest away, but nobody wanted it. The moral of the story is, good beers are great but bad beers are the worst thing that has ever made it into your mouth (yes that includes the night you passed out and your friends took all those pictures of you).
