However I recently found a Czech newspaper article from 1887 that talks about the importance of beer color, clarity and appearance due to the widespread use of glasses, and it notes that only the Bavarians at the time were still drinking out of ceramic mugs, rather than glassware, "like we used to, back in the good old days."<br /><br />Not a big fan of most cloudy "craft" beers myself.Evan Railhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17375264107101932021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2558050635605413616.post-79912280372507701372015-10-22T12:32:49.238+01:002015-10-22T12:32:49.238+01:00Great stuff Ed.
