I’m such a beer snob haha. Technically it should be served like this. I was sent a glass like this for Secret Senna and use it more than any other.

Sort of like a chalice?

1906 is really good, I am amazed at the quality of their products

This one is more akin to an amber, but 1906 also makes darker beers that are also delicious.

frankly after plastic bottle wine in the plane I deserve this.

Sort of. The trick with the glass I posted is that is keep the head together better to allow you to smell it better while still making giving room within the glass to get your nose in and smell.

I have a theory, which is kind of odd.

I believe that if a beer that is meant to be served in a glass tastes good from the can/bottle, then it’s going to be fantastic if served in a glass.

This restaurant gives out wine glasses because they don’t have those, they have normal beer glasses but they serve lesser stuff in those.

Has anyone in Galithia made fun of your seseo yet?

“Come on, watch this...say “Civilizacion” again!”

Believe it or not, some Galician dialects actually have seseo.

Wow, I didn’t know seseo existed anywhere in Spain. Interesting...

IMHO Galicia has the least thick accent; the easiest to understand as a foreigner

On the other hand, I get the Mexican jokes here and the Immigrant jokes in Mexico so *sigh*

Seseo is the norm both in southern Peninsular Spanish and in the Canary Islands (apart from Latin America, of course.)

“Galician” is the Romance language of Galicia, up in the NW of the Iberian Peninsula. Similar to Portuguese, both being co-dialects of Latin (think of the relationship between Dutch and Flemish and you’ll get an approximate idea).

Funny part is that some regional variations of Galician have seseo too.
