Usually between 12 and 18c. The fuller the wine, the higher up on those number.

We have an off license/wine shop that I managed for a bit around 20 years ago and was sent on certified evening courses about wines and whiskeys, think level 5 was diploma and official wine master level or whatever the term is, I went to level 2 or 3 before fokin' off to much sunnier and happier climes. After 20 years that's pretty much the only bit of information I retain from them.

Nice, never shy away from learning a skill for free!

Beer.

Icy. Cold. Beer. First time in four plus months.


Actually it isn't icy, isn't cold, and isn't actually that nice.

We had a load of spicy ass chicken for dinner and oddly got a hankering for an icy cold one.

Went down the 7.
They only had Thai shite.
Okay, Singha. 4 cans that had obviously just been put in there 5 minutes before.
Ice fridge. One dodgy ass ripped bag left stuck to the bottom, if bags of ice were dogs, this one was Yogi's arsehole.


So, a luke warm glass of crappy Thai beer with big cubes of ice that have hair and crumbs and shiz on 'em.

Oddly enough it doesn't go down half as nice as I remembered.
