    I turn the first empty into a spitter. Cans aren't with a shit to spit in.

    In a glass. You have to live in a complete shit hole to not be able trip over a few microbreweries when out and about. Whether from keg, growler, or crowler, I am drinking out of a frosted glass. Unless it’s Yuengling as I’ll drink that stuff out of can, bottle, glass, and them some.

    Bottles also work as fish whackers in the boat.

    The pole isn’t about what you do with the beer after the container is opened. You can pour the can or bottle of beer in a glass.

    Draft beer isn’t on the pole as it would win by a country mile.

    Growler or crowler is the most typical way beer ends up home with me. It’s a crowler tonight as I wasn’t planning on beer tonight, so I left my insulated growler at home.

    These days the original question has been blurred due to the massive diversity in beer producers and their preferred packaging style. When I was a kid, there did seem to be an elitist preference towards bottles, but with the rise of microbreweries, the tide has shifted due to the premium preservation characteristics of the can vs. a translucent bottle. If I was still consuming beer the old way, I’d do cans over bottles due to disposal. I can no longer recycle glass via my municipal waste disposal service, so cans are more cheaper as I get charged more for trash than I do recycling.

    I voted though I probably like cans better when I think about it. They're lighter and less noisy. I do like drinking from a bottle over a can though.

    Recycling cans and bottles in the 10cent deposit zone can be as simple as putting them on the curb with a free sign.

    Rainier is better in a bottle but I never get them. Coors Light and Original I have no preference, I enjoy them either way, all the time. Found Busch in a bottle in Nevada and it was delicious. Rolling Rock in a bottle was amazing before they sold out to Anheiser Busch. I still get cans though because they’re easier to dispose.
