I stand corrected! :oops: That must be one of those urban myths that I fell into. You always hear the line of "It tastes so much better on draft!" that I assumed it had to be different.

A popular misconception. I drink draft unless there is no other choice.

There are many factors that can cause a difference in draft v. bottle flavor:

1. Package size; a bottle heats/cools faster as it contains less liquid

2. Draft is maintained cold (except for delivery) from the time it is kegged

3. And again, a keg is a larger container and less sensitize to wide thermal swings. Heat kills man.

Hope this helps...

See you Saturday!

I joined this just to post this reply (I've been on here years ago, but just found my way back)

My brother-in-law works for Norfolk Southern. They frequently have "beer concentrate" tanks.

Must explain why Budweiser is the way it is.
