Chopp

Method

Pour ice cubes into a tall chilled glass, filling it about one-third full. Take an Argentinian lager beer, preferably served from a tap at the bar or opened fresh from a bottle, and pour it slowly over the ice at a slight angle to create a modest head. Fill the glass until nearly full, allowing the foam to settle naturally. Serve immediately whilst ice-cold, typically accompanied by snacks such as peanuts or chorizo. In Argentina, chopp is traditionally enjoyed as a casual social drink, often consumed in bars or during gatherings with friends and family.
