I have a recipe for onion rings and it calls for 1 cup beer, but can be substituted with carbonated water. My question is do you think I can substitute with pepsi?|||All the no-s are mistaken. I have done this and it is good. It is also good with ginger ale or 7 Up or plain old club soda.|||It just doesn't sound good, you know what I mean?|||Yuk-no!
The sugar and color would be a big problem.|||I wouldn't try it, it just wouldn't taste good. I would omit the beer and increase the water.|||You can do that,but, did you know that cooking with beer disolves the beer, there is no alcohol after cooking with it. But Pepsi sounds like a really good idea.|||no I wouldn't|||Heck yea, I think it would give it a nice Carmel color and flavor. I have a southern cook book and they do all kinds of things with cola, fried chicken and vegges and cakes and cookies. Go for it !!

What is the name of the pitchers of beer they serve in brazil?
While on a trip to Brazil, I ordered a pitcher and they brought out a tall, circular tube filled with beer. On the bottom was a tap and you poured your own beer through them.
I am wondering what they are called and where I could purchase one. Any help is appreciated.|||Are you talking about this: http://images.quebarato.com.br/photos/bi鈥?/a> ?
If so, it's called "chopeira" (draft beer container, in English) or "torre de chopp" (tower of draft beer, in English). In Bondfaro, a website which searches prices of a product around all Internet, I found several stores in Brazil which sells it. There are several formats there, you just have to click on some and choose the best for you. Here's the website:
Bondfaro: http://www.bondfaro.com.br/chopeira.html
I found some few on Amazon.com too, mainly chromed: http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?u鈥?/a>
I hope I've helped you!

What is the difference in Lager Beer and Pilsner Beer?
What is the difference between Lager beer and Pilsner beer? Also what is the difference between ale and beer??|||The differences begin during the brewing process. Whether the beer is an ale or lager is defined by the type of yeast used in the brew and the temperature at which fermentation takes place. Ales are brewed with top-fermenting yeast which allows for rapid fermentation at warmer temperatures. Lagers are brewed with bottom-fermenting yeast which ferments more slowly and at colder temperatures. it is all just dependent on how it is brewed, each brewing process produces a different, unique beer. All are good!|||A Pilsner is a lager. Ales are beer, just not a lager. Ales and Lagers are brewed differently.
Here are some examples...
Lager: Pilsner, Bock, Black Lager, etc.
Ale: Stout, Porter, IPA, Wheat beers, etc
EDIT: Stay away from Wikipedia! Why do people put stock in what it says? People can put anything in there.
Go to allaboutbeer.com.|||Oh man - you need to get out and get your self a "sampler" from your local micro-brew pub. I was not only educated on this subject by my bar tender, I also got to sample each type of beer.
You can read all you want here, but if you experience it, you'll remember it.
Lagers, Ale's, IPA, wheat, stout, etc. The brew pub is your wikipedia of beer answers.|||Pilsner is a German style of lager. And in British terms ale and beer are the same thing. The diference between lager and ale is lager is fermented at a colder temperature and is aged before serving.|||Pilsener is a type of lager and ale is a type of beer.

How to make your own beer labels?
Can anyone tell me how to make my own beer labels? More specifically what type of labels, size and where to purchase them.|||I make my beer labels with an inkjet printer on Epson high DPI paper. I attach them with a glue stick. Much better and cheaper than what you can buy. The combination doesn't run when it gets wet and the label slides right off after briefly soaking in warm water.
You can get the paper at places like Office Depot, Staples, etc.|||You can use either a graphics program or a word processing program to prepare the labels. Print them on bond paper or on prepared label stock. I glue the labels to the bottles with milk. The labels can be peeled off after you wet them thoroughly. If you want to buy label stock, go to a large stationary or computer store.|||There are beer making stores online, like http://www.homebrewit.com that specifically sell labels that you can customize to put on your own homemade beer. It's already pre-designed and sized for beer bottles and some come with nice graphics already on them. You can see specific labels here: http://www.homebrewit.com/aisle/1180. They're at a good price too depending on which kind you want.
Otherwise, if you're looking for something a little fancier, there are label creating programs you can buy to customize your label even more.

Is it safe to drink beer that has been in a house during termite tenting?
My house was fumigated a couple months ago and I left a case of beer in my closet. Is it safe to drink it?|||yes. But it may now give you cravings for wood.
Good luck|||Now the can is still unopened right???
Then its safe to drink it ... but please clear the can first! wipe it clean if possible wash it!

How long does it take for room temperature beer to get ice cold?
I'm throwing a party. I have a ton of beer in bottles and cans that I need to be cold for the party. However, I don't want to ice them too early and have all the ice melt off. How much time do I need to allow for the beers to get cold after being iced in coolers?|||i'd say at least 2 hours, and I'd put some in freezer or fridge just to have a batch of cold beer before hand...|||Your question depends on how large the containers are (its thermal mass), what they are made from (thermal transfer abilities), how hot they are when you put them in (starting temperature) and if there is enough ice to compensate. That being said putting them on ice will not make them ice cold. It will make them about 35F. It takes about 5-10 minutes for 12 ounce cans depending on how warm they were to begin, how many you put in at a time, and if you can get it totally surrounded by ice. Cans cool quicker then bottles as glass is an insulator and aluminum is very good and thermal transfer.
Keep it in a fridge until it is time to transfer it to coolers. Oh, and once you buy a new fridge take your old one and put it in the garage. It is what we know as a beer fridge.|||If you put the beer in the cooler with ice on it, it only takes 8 minutes for the beer to get cold and good enough to drink.!! bottoms up!|||Refrigerator - 45 minutes
Freezer - 20 minutes
Ice water - 5 minutes
Ice water w/ salt - 2 minutes|||The best way is to fridge the beer now if possible or at least keep them in the shade, and put them in the cooler with ice on top 30 minutes before the first one will be drunk.|||pour liquid nitrogen over them, and they'll be icey cold in an instant.

What is the best beer to use for onion rings?
I usually use Coors Light (it's what my dad drinks), but it kind of taste a little funny. I've been told that it may be because it's a light beer. What brand of beer would work the best? I ask because I don't drink, so I obviously don't have any preference for beer. I'd like to know what works the best.|||I try to not use anything too expensive that I would rather be drinking. Rolling Rock makes light and tasty onion rings.|||When I made it I used a de-alcoholized one as your do not need the alcohol, so any one like O'Douls or the Michelob one with 67 calories, it does not fade like real beer and has less carbonation, here in Canada I use Labatt's 5 or Molson Excel we sell that in the grocery stores, we do not have real beer there it is sold in a specialty store.|||Melissa, I use a dark lager, It's a little darker than Budweiser, but not black beer like Guinness.
I have used Budweiser and Molson X, it's okay, but not as good and robust as the darker beer.|||Nothing too hoppy. I find that any ordinary lager works very well.|||Dark beer has more taste than light for cooking.|||room temp bud light!

Why exactly does cheap beer make you fart more than more expensive beer?
When I drink Natural Light, I fart A LOT. When I drink Keystone Light, I fart somewhat. When I drink Amstel Light, I hardly fart at all. This has held true for Coors, Bud, Pabst, Heineken, etc.
Is there an ingredient in beer that makes you fart that the lower the price, the higher the quantity of that ingredient in the beer?
Not kidding, the question is crass and silly, but it's true and I really want to know! It would be nice to save money without being an embarrassment!|||Carbonation. Cheap beers tend to be over carbonated because much like serving it ice cold it masks the flavor.|||Try drinking unfiltered German wheat beers.

Is it illegal to brew beer if you're underage?
Im 19 and I have brewed beer with people of drinking age, but Im thinking about buying my own equipment. Is that illegal?|||It is illegal, yes.
They don't card you to buy equipment or ingredients, though, and I can't think of any reason why you would ever get caught.|||who cares lad! just buy the equipment and let the good times roll! any other country in the world ud be legally drinking!|||Each state has different laws. I would call your states office to see what are the laws in your state. For instance in the state of Louisiana it is legal for an 18 year old to sell alcohol but obviously not consume it.|||As long as you don't make a big deal of it, I'm sure no one will really care.

How do I know if beer or soda is spoiled?
I left beer and soda in a cooler for two weeks. The ice obviously melted and now I am wondering if I should simply trash them. Thanks.|||If they are still sealed there is no reason to worry.
More people, until the late 19th/early 20th centuries, drank more beer/wine than water.
the reason for this is water is boiled to make beer, also yeast converts the grain sugars to alcohol which helps to preserve the drink. This made beer safer to drink and would allow you to keep it longer.
Soda is also boiled/pasturized when made. It is then sealed. This makes it very difficult for bacteria et all. to get in.
The Beer will last longer than the soda but both should be good to consume. Just rinse off the bottles/cans in case the water from, the ice and cooler was dirty|||it won't really spoil but it can lose some of its fizz|||Beer or soda do not need to be refrigerated if they are not opened. Just put them in the fridge.

How can i make myself like beer?
I cant drink more than one sip of beer at a time? I have tried many different kinds of beer and all of them make me feel like im gonna puke because its so nasty. But i really wanna be able to drink beer because im tired of liquor. How can i "train" myself to like beer?|||practice, just drink alittle everyday till your downing 6packs like there nothing|||I don't think it's possible but I could be wrong. Some people naturally like some things and hate others (and vice versa). If you don't like something already (what you mentioned that they all make you want to throw up) and you force yourself to drink it, it's going to have a negative effect and you'll end up hating it even worse.
I've wanted to like beer but I can't stand it no matter what brand it is. But I like other drinks instead (both alcoholic and non) so I'm perfectly fine that way.|||beer is one of those things you either love or hate. Try it with lemonade (sprite if your American) Say 3/4 beer to 1/4 lemonade. It's called a shandy and its not a bad way to drink beer if you want to train yourself.

Try a gin rickey - cool and refreshing, and not girlie-sweet.
Gin, lime-juice, sparkling water.|||Why would you want to "MAKE" yourself like or do anything? If you don't like beer and want to get away from the hard stuff, try wine. You may have to acquire a taste for this too, but it's not as yukky to do (at least, that was true for me.) I like the light and slightly sweet variety, like white Zinfandel. Be careful with wine though because if it's too sweet and/or cheap it can reallllly make you sick (like Boone's Farm).
Drinking wine's also classier than beer OR cocktails. But if you can't come to the point where you like either one, and drinking is a major form of entertainment, order virgin drinks, like Virgin Mary's.

WHY DO NOT HAVE TO DRINK JUST BECAUSE YOUR FRIENDS DO!!!!!! I AM 60 YEARS OLD NEVER DID LIKE AND NEVER DID DRINK|||Why do you need to like beer? you dont need to drink beer to be cool. I know everyone seems to drink beer as a socal drink but ive found i get more respect when i say" thanks but i dont drink beer" dont be afraid to drink what you like in socal settings. dont worry about it. real friends wont care what your drinking.
just keep it under control|||I would suggest trying a few micro brews. There is a huge taste difference between like Bud, Coors, and Miller, to Blue Moon, Killians, Newcastle, Pete's Wicked.
First beer I would reccommend is a Blue Moon with about 2 OZ of Orange Juice.
Next try Petes Wicked Strawberry.
Also there are quite a few Cider Beers, Very Sweet, like Hornsby's.
Those are a few of my favorites.
Corona with Lots of Lime is awesome too.|||Oh my gosh girl! If you don't like it, don't drink it!!!
I don't blame you for not liking beer, it is nasty. There's no way you can "train" yourself to like it. And why on earth do you want to? Why don't you try wine or something instead. Or better yet you could try laying off the alcohol.|||you cant make your sefl like it
you like it or you don't like it|||Try Sparks or another malt liquor. It's not beer, but it's not hard liquor either. I personally only like Sparks, but many others have a sweet taste with very little malty aftertaste. If you don't like beer then don't drink it!|||mmmmmmmmmm
think of all the studs you'll get.
god it tastes so good too.|||Practice, practice practice..
Or..
Try Wine...|||don't start with beer. drink beer only when you are a little bit drunk. start with light beer.
How do you clean a beer spill on a mattress?
I want to make sure it doesn't sit and mold up. *someone* spilled beer...any measures to take?|||Pat it up the best you can, then clean with Resolve. If you have one of those Little Green Clean Machines, use that lightly on it. Then put a towel over it to absorb any leftover moisture.|||by u stopping to drin coz already it is spoiling ur health and upon that ur mattress|||LYsol basin,tub, and tile cleaner should do the job.|||Use a carpet spot cleaner like "Spot Shot" or "Resolve" and let air dry (preferably in the sun). Then spray with "Lysol" and let that air dry (also in the sun if possible).
How do you avoid getting a hangover after drinking draft beer?
I typically only drink bottled beer because draft beer gives me a huge hangover. Regardless of what I drink I always drink 32 ounces of water and take 4 ibuprofren at the end of the night. This always works unless I am drinking draft beer. Any other recommendations?|||your taking 4 ibuprofen everytime you drink, theres a problem. you are going to build up such an immunity to those pills they wont be effective soon.
i have no idea why draught beer does that vs. bottled beer. draught beer is much better quality|||eat food. drink lots of water and pace yourself... thats pretty much all you can do|||try to get as sober as possible before falling asleep. also, ibuprofen in some cases has been known to make your hangover worse but not always.|||Eat greasy food and drink a few bottles of water. Also, if you can, stay up until you start to sober up.|||Have wild sex before going to sleep.|||NAC (from vitamin shop or online) and Vitamin C really works... NAC is the "secret ingredient" in expensive hangover pills. Vitamin C helps NAC work better.

Does anyone have an amazing beer and cheese soup recipe?
I live in a small town, and we have several small business owners. They have the best beer cheese soup, and I have yet to find anything anywhere near is good. Help me?|||Beer Cheese Soup
1 cup butter or margarine
1 cup finely chopped celery
1 cup finely chopped carrots
1 cup finely chopped onion
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon prepared mustard
8 cups vegetable or chicken broth
1 (12-ounce) can beer (preferably flat)
2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
3 tablespoons freshly grated parmesan cheese
Chopped fresh parsley
In a large soup pot over medium heat, melt butter or margarine. Add celery, carrots, and onion; saute until tender but not brown. Remove vegetables with a slotted spoon, reserving butter in soup pot. Place vegetables into a food processor blender; whirl until smooth; set aside.
In the soup pot over medium heat, make a roux with reserved butter or margarine, flour, and prepared mustard. Gradually add chicken broth, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook 10 to 15 minutes, stirring constantly, until mixture just comes to a gentle boil and is thickened.
Reduce heat to low. Add beer and stir to combine. Mix in pureed vegetables and cheddar cheese; simmer another 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until cheese is melted. Remove from heat. Serve in soup bowls topped with parmesan cheese and parsley.
Makes 8 servings.|||This looks like a great recipe! Two of my boyfriend's favourite things are beer and cheese :)
|||The key is using a really good beer.
here is mine:
In the bottom of 8qt stock pot, saute until tender over med heat:
1 T each: olive oil and butter
1/4 cup each diced into 1/4 inch pieces - onion, carrots, celery.
Salt and pepper to taste.
Once these are tender, add 2 T flour. Stir over low heat for a couple of minutes. Add 2 cups milk (I use skim - or use vegetable or chicken stock). Turn heat back up to med. Stir until thickened. Add 2 cups shredded cheddar (I like sharp) and stir until it is melted. At this point, if you want a smooth soup - use the immersion blender. Add 1 cup of chicken (vegetable) stock and 2 bottles of a good lager (light or dark is up to you). Simmer on low for about 20 - 30 minutes, checking on it occasionally. If it gets too thick, add vegetable or chicken stock to thin it.|||HEARTY BEER CHEESE SOUP

Are there any alternatives to lactose when making beer?
Someone I know wants to make beer but he can't get hold of lactose powder to make the beer. Now he's wondering if there are any other sugars he can use that can do the same thing.|||Yup.
Fructose
Works a treat|||Grain, malt, hops and yeast + distilled water = ingredients for making beer--at home or professionally. Lactose powder is not necessary.
Since beer is mostly water, do not use anything but distilled water.
Adding molasses instead of sugar can make a deeper, warmer flavored beer.|||Both Dextrose and Glucose are the best in terms of high production with low after taste - Fructose as suggested above does have an after taste but one that supports / harmonises the taste of the beer.
Sucrose (table sugar) produces a high level of sediment and often has a peculiar after taste in finished product.
Sugar additives can be avoided by ensuring that enzymes such as maltase /amylase are given time to act upon the grain to breakdown the complex starches into simple sugars.|||Yes using Malt extract of the type of grain that you are using will help greatily without giving any of the side effects to the Beer.
First question is this a from grain or from malt extract brewing project. If it is from Malt extract than there is no need for the Sugars unless all you want is to max the alcohol content and you will get a very cidery flavor from most sugars
Beer is from Malted grains (Barley, Wheat being most common)
Hops (a flower that adds bitter and is a natural preservative)
Yeast (the type breaks the beer family down into to two types: Ales and Lagers)
Water
Agents added to beers can range from different items used to clarify or flavor a beer. But the above is the basic that has been around for a good long time.|||Lactose and Gluten free beers exist, most common one is Red Bridge, but there are some others... he can use commercial sorghum... but I think it may be even harder to find.
B:
The Lactose or Gluten come from the malted hops.|||Why use lactose, beer should be made from malt.

How many bottles of wine and kegs of beer for a wedding reception?
We are fortunate enough to be able to bring alcohol to our wedding. We have 100 people coming, with at least half that can drink like they belong in a fraternity. We would like to keep within our budget so we are going to have beer and wine only. How many bottles of wine and kegs (or cases) of beer should we get?|||Make it so everyone can have just a drink or two.... Please dont be liable for drunk driving and a death of a friend or someone else.
You might consider saying a small speech like..."We would like everyone to join us in celebrating our special day, please have a drink with us."
Then have "servers" pass out EITHER a glass of wine or a glass of beer. You could have 3 or 4 of each kind of drink on a tray and have them served.....
The purpose of the drink is to celebrate the wedding. A symbolic gesture of good will... not a free for all party.
Congratulations on your wedding!|||Well usually the rule of thumb is 3 drinks per guest. So do the math...about 6-7 glasses of wine in a bottle and 24 bottles of beer in a case (no kegs to at least class it up since it's a wedding). But if you think your friends and family are gonna get f...ed up worse than the newly weds, then just increase to please the masses. P.S. approximately 27 shots in a liter of liquor just in case.|||Talk to a liquor store about your situation. You can buy more than you need and take it back if unused. Most (not all) liquor stores will do this.
I would think a few half kegs of beer and 2 cases each of white, red and rose. Again, make sure you can take back what is not used.|||sammie, you are lame. she already said all guests will staying in the same hotel and no one will be driving. It's a celebration, not a business dinner! Geez I say go have some fun, it's your wedding!!!|||The more the merrier.
