Ideal drinking and serving temperature Non-alcoholic beverages: The ideal drinking temperature is between 6 and 10 degrees Celsius.
Ideal drinking and serving temperature Beer: The ideal drinking temperature is 8 degrees Celsius. Fluctuations in temperature should be avoided to prevent the loss of carbonation. Warm beer produces more foam, losing the refreshing carbonation and dulling the taste. If the beer is too cold, it becomes cloudy, loses its natural shine, doesn’t foam and becomes unplatable.
Ideal drinking and serving temperature Wine: Wine has to be served at the proper drinking temperature to fully display its bouquet, aroma, character and taste. White wines are served colder than red wines.
Wine glasses • for red wine • for white wine • for sparkling wine
Serving beer Pouring drought beer The requirements for good beer service are: • Good storage conditions. • Protection from direct sunlight. • Even and uninterrupted CO2 pressure. • Meticulous cleanliness of all dispensing and pouring utensils, beer lines and glassware. • Never use beer glasses for other beverages.
Serving beer Serving bottled beer: Mise en place: • Serving tray • Glassware Pouring bottled beer: When pouring a bottle of beer, take the glass in your left hand, hold it slanted and pour the beer slowly. If the beer is poured without tilting the glass, too much CO2 will dissipate, and too much foam will form. Wipe beer bottles before storing them in a refrigerator or cooler.
