Drinking beer straight from the bottle is the most direct route to "Bloat City". If you use a glass, the CO2 escapes faster from the beer (a glass has a larger opening) and you won't get as bloated (if at all).

I saw this on a documentary from Stella Artois beer, so I know of what I speak.

You're right that drinking beer from the can is tacky (the only acceptable time to do that is on the river, IMO). Drinking out of the bottle is just as bad. And you never, ever want to be tacky.

I think drinking beer at all is kinda tacky too, but if you're going to drink it, drink out of a pretty cup (without letters). Happy early birthday! Hope it's a great southern fete!

Yeah, WTF? Beer drinking etiquette is a oxymoron. You damn silver spoon sorority girls, just turn it up, drink it up, and end it with a satisfying belch.

BTW: I used to hate beer, but some how acquired the taste for it. I don't know how, maybe it's from smelling it all the time at bars or whatever.

Agreed! I've always preferred beer to mixed drinks or straight liquor, and I don't think there is anything tacky about it (although I do agree that drinking from a can is a no-no, find a plastic cup for that shit! )

Beer Drinking Etiquette…If you showed up to the party empty handed and have the pleasure of a host that is providing you with free beer do not bitch about their selection.

In my college days, those who drank beer drank it out of a glass -- and sitting down.

I have to say that these days I couldn't give a shit whether someone is drinking from a bottle, can, or glass. Don't worry about it and just have fun. Someone who would be offended by not drinking from a glass is a pretentious ass.

I guess I'm just a tacky girl. But then again, I think it would be even more tacky to be at a bar, be given the beer in a bottle, and then ask for a mug.

Before I graduated college I hated beer. Now, I like beer but the beer I like doesn't even come in cans. I don't like to unnecessarily dirty glasses so I have no issue drinking from a bottle. Course, right now I'm drunk on wine.

Holy shit. No really. Holy shit. I think that calling people tacky for drinking something they enjoy is tacky, but hey, have at it.

I drink beer however the hell I feel like drinking it -- sometimes out of the bottle and sometimes out of a glass and sometimes out of the can (although the only canned beer I really drink is Gordon, which belongs in a glass because it is magnificent). And I don't give a shit what anybody thinks of it.

If drinking it out of the bottle is tacky, wonder what's thought of beer bonging? Which i'm guessing many people in this thread have participated in during their college career....

That's tacky. Keg stands and Edward 40 hands are so much classier.
