So is warm ice cream and cold soup.

[-] Slovene@feddit.nl 10 points 7 months ago

Icecream soup ftw!

[-] chonglibloodsport@lemmy.world 28 points 7 months ago

But if iced coffee tastes great, what about hot beer? We do have hot wine (mulled wine).

Welcome to German Christmas markets, where you can buy and (without irony) enjoy hot, spiced beer. And wine. And several other beverages.

[-] chonglibloodsport@lemmy.world 5 points 7 months ago

Okay that’s amazing. I need to visit at Christmas time! My family is German but I’ve never been to Germany!

[-] RamblingPanda@lemmynsfw.com 4 points 7 months ago

Just make sure you go to a nice one (I'm not of any help, I'm not the Christmas market type of person), some are really touristy/fake.

In the Wind in the Willows they mention mulled ale, so it is a thing or at least it was in 1908.

[-] Deconceptualist@lemm.ee 3 points 7 months ago

[-] jeffw@lemmy.world 3 points 7 months ago

I prefer a steamer for my beer

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 13 points 7 months ago

I was confused for a moment because I was thinking of a chilled coffee and not a hot coffee that has gone cold.

[-] pruwybn@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 7 months ago

Yeah, I thought about that too, but I thought "coffee that's gone cold" would make the title too clunky.

I know a guy that likes his beer how he likes his coffee: hot. He buys a case of Hamm's and tosses it in his truck for when he gets off work. He's a construction worker so he's mostly working while it's 90°F (30°C) out.

[-] theodewere@kbin.social 17 points 7 months ago

if he has some cheddar in there he can have hot Hamm's and cheese

[-] kautau@lemmy.world 8 points 7 months ago

If he takes it home, throws it in a pot, adds some broth, a potato. Baby, he’s got a stew goin

[-] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 2 points 7 months ago

I hope he doesn't drink and drive. I assume he is responsible but you never know. You should not drink a beer and then immediately drive.

[-] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 6 points 7 months ago

You know… they are. I had never thought of it, but damnit you're right.

The metal cutlery in the drawer and the drawer itself are the same temperature.

[-] recapitated@lemmy.world 3 points 7 months ago

Warm sprite and water are the same effervescence.

[-] Gamers_Mate@kbin.social 3 points 7 months ago

What is the correct temperature for an Irish coffee?

[-] Karyoplasma@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 7 months ago

Depends whether it's your first or your 21st.
