“Thank you for the hospitality, my lady.” Alucard took the mug of beer and stared down inside of it for a moment. This was definitely not his type of drink; but he was already having enough difficulty blending into this city. So he took a swing and downed it like medicine. 

He kept a straight face as the alcohol burned his throat and warmed his stomach. “Very, good.” That was polite speak for: I won’t be taking another sip.

However, he still needed to pay for his drink too. So, he took out a few gold coins and handed them to the barmaid.
