Message joet P admin beers 2900 º places 125 º 16:16 Tue 11/7/2017 I know Americans typically think of cellar temperatures as "warm". This is not what I'm talking about. What's more interesting to me is the idea of having a late Fall or Winter, seasonally appropriate beer at warmer than ambient temperatures. Quelque Chose comes to mind, as do Gluhbiers as holiday spiced beers intended to be served warm, but what else is there like this in the wide world of beer? https://www.ratebeer.com/beer/unibroue-quelque-chose/1924/ Has anyone had stout, spiced or not, warmed in a mug while out in the snow? I haven't but it sounds pretty attractive.
Message SarkyNorthener beers 5200 º places 142 º 16:37 Tue 11/7/2017 We have had this served in the U.K. Over the past few years. Warm mulled cider. https://www.ratebeer.com/beer/westons-henry-weston-mulled-cider/299700/

Message 77ships P beers 14200 º places 918 º 17:06 Tue 11/7/2017 There are 2 or 3 Glühkriek’s in Belgium or at least there used to be, I haven’t seen them in a while. Like a warm lemonade, sweet candy, quite enjoyable, they never found much commercial interest. I have once had a quadruple warmed up to 150 Farenheit, it was utterly revolting, one of the worst things I have ever tried. I don’t think that I want a warm stout.
Message Leighton P beers 33724 º places 1204 º 17:15 Tue 11/7/2017 Bottles in the microwave, start at around 30 seconds. Cans should not be put in the microwave; better to warm them up on the stove top.
Message Bitterbill beers 3241 º places 25 º 17:34 Tue 11/7/2017 I drink beers on the warmer side. Microwave, no.

I can imagine Deschutes Jubel Ale from the microwave could be stunning.
Message slowrunner77 beers 19964 º places 499 º 18:20 Tue 11/7/2017 Never a stout (though I'd be open to trying it). Unibroue's Quelque Chose and Cascade's Gluh Kriek are the only two hot beers I've had off the top of my head, and I really liked them both. The closest I've come to a hot stout is an Americano in one hand and a nitro Rasputin in the other, sitting on the deck of Crow's Feet Commons in Bend, overlooking Mirror Pond.
