Somewhere just west of Moratalla this morning. A bit of abandonment for @XTreme, only spoiled by my bike.

I think there's quite a bit of deserted stuff up that way Ray!

It’s for sale if you want a tent that’s named after you.

Can't get much more typical Ribatejo tasca than this

 

Very simple but nicely done bifana sandwich and a tap beer: 2,5€

I was on the bike and it was the first warm day of the year for me, at 28º that hit the spot, sadly I had to ride the bike home or else I'd have stuck around for a few more.

Just your normal daily use pilsner. I like simple beers.

Had a 4€ craft beer the other day, with my brother and a friend, to be honest it’s money wasted on me. Would much prefer a nice wine instead.

I like a normal pilsner as well. Problem here in the US is that all draft beers are now about $7-8 each (7.2 Euro). Not sure how this happened, but in the past couple of years the price of draft beer has gotten out of hand. I haven't noticed wines, but sure they've gone up accordingly. 

I blame the "craft beer" craze where every town has 6-7 small breweries in it - and all think they're beer is the best shit ever. Most really suck - andf aren't worth $8 for a 12 oz. (30 ml) glass.

It didn’t sound right so I checked it, 12oz is 35cc, or 350ml.

The typical Portuguese tap beer glass is 20cc, which is what that is in the picture. This is perfect for keeping it from dying in your hands, and on hot days you don’t end up with a warm glass as it doesn’t last that long. A normal beer bottle is 33cc, so very similar to what you have, but a few years ago some genius came up with the Mini which is a 20cc beer bottle, we should hunt that guy down and make him prime minister, no more warm beers on a hot day!

Somehow now it’s all pints and english style glasses in specialist beer bars, fucking hipsters!

Oops = my conversion was off a decimal point - sorry about that.

I like a tall glass- as in your pic - with about 25 ounces. That's the perfect serving for me.

I'll post some pics of the beers in Texas next week when I'm there - fucking gallon buckets with a handle on them!

That’s what I don’t get, assuming you’re talking about sitting down and having some beer, why not have a smaller glass and enjoy several less stale and colder beers than one larger serving each time? For the same money per cc would you enjoy it more?

when you have a bottle of wine you don’t go filling the glass to the brim time.

I probably drink faster than some - don't recall the beer getting all that warm.

Maybe a I have a drinking problem - I dunno.

Why not? The misses throws a wobbly when I use the glass I've been drinking out of , soft drink tumbler for example. Apparently "its not the same if you don't use a wine glass", taste the same to me.

there used to be a night club in the isle of man and they sold your beer in four pint plastic jugs ( the palace lido)

What would she think if you drank it straight from the bottle after all it already comes in a glass why dirty another

And it’s obviously made out of wine appropriate glass.
