I'm trying to post an image - but I can't get it to work. I don't know why - so if anyone would help me, it would be really great! I uploaded the pic: www.totallost.dk/happy_halloween.jpgThe I wrote before the link and the /img behind... But you can't see the image in here...

I don't know which is worse, beer in a green bottle or beer in a can.

I can't pull up that pic at the moment (or your avatar pic, for that matter). Perhaps the internet is down.

I don't know which is worse, beer in a green bottle or beer in a can. English isn't my native language... but can beer be "worse"?? (unless - puked - of course). I think beer in a bottle (regardless the colour) is better than beer in a can... but I'm open for debate ;D

I think beer in a bottle (regardless the colour) is better than beer in a can... but I'm open for debate ;D What do you mean how can it be worse? Beer is awesome if you get the right kind. Now the reason bottle color matters is the issue of skunking. When they say a beer has skunked, it's not just a analogous term for the flavor. It's literally what happens. When light hits beer, it creates a reaction in the hops that produces chemicals similar to what your garden variety mephitis mephitis will produce should you tick one off. Now green bottles and clear bottles don't filter out enough light, so the beer in them goes skunky faster. It's why Corona always tastes extra crappy. It's a pretty bad beer to begin with, but it goes skunky in the bottle fast. The lime that people drink with it helps mask the skunky flavor. Cans on the other hand don't allow any light in. But then your beer comes off tasting a bit metallic. It's why I've never figured out why some British beers insist on using clear bottles (I'm looking at you Newcastle!). Almost every beer worth drinking (and even some that aren't, like your MBC varieties, interestingly enough) puts their beer in brown bottles. Brown bottles cost more, but it keeps your product fresher for longer.

What do you mean how can it be worse? Beer is awesome if you get the right kind. Can I play the "English isn't my..."-card again? I meant: beer is always better (never "worse") Corona isn't really beer - just a poor excuse for getting drunk! SO right - cans are for food - not for beer! I never thought of that before - but you are SO right... a lot of the really good beer IS in brown bottles... and when beer is good, the angles sings

and when beer is good, the angles sings Are those acute, right, or obtuse angles? (I'm guessing you meant "angels".) I bet the Anglos sing when the beer is good as well.

There's a couple of weird things going on. In the OP, the first line of the post is [image]. Right clicking on that and selecting "View Image" brings the picture up. I can grab the image URL and stuff. But when I tried to post this, quoting the OP and testing the IMG tag for myself, my post was screwed six ways from Sunday. Anyway, for my own test of the IMG tag, try this. Well, it seems that Total Lost and I have the same problem. Maybe there's a permissions issue in the board that doesn't let ordinary users like ourselves post images? Or is there a size limit? Selecting the IMG code from my album gives this. Much better, no?
