you just don’t get much smell when you put a bottle to your mouth. Much better is to drink beer from a glass.

many bars serve frosted glasses. They think that’s quite fancy and wonderful. But actually, I think that’s a bad idea. It turns out that if you cool liquids that contain gases, they really – the liquids dissolve the gases better and they – it is the gas coming off the liquid, which is part of the aroma, which makes, again, beer be so enjoyable to many of us.

just like you can have second-hand smoke, Ira, you can have second-hand lipstick.

Mr. HARE: Empathy is highly genetic in origin, modified and shaped by the environment, of course.
