CansNot much of anything good, beer-wise, comes in a bottle outside of the barrel-aged stuff.
FWIW, I pour my beer in a glass like a sophisticated person. Superior culture. -

Yeah, seems like the only types left you gotta get from the bottles are barrel aged and high end Euro trash stuff- e.g., Begian sours or Trappist Ales.BleachedAnusDawg said:Not much of anything good, beer-wise, comes in a bottle outside of the barrel-aged stuff.

CansI used to think cans were ghetto, but now it all goes in a frosted glass…

CansI will state that use of a “coozie” with cans or bottles is over the fucking line in my house. We have friends that always serve beer Coozied, regardless of temperature, and it grinds my gears. I refuse them, and the wife once asked about it…”If you can’t drink it before it gets warm, don’t drink it”…

BottlesI 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.YellowSnow said:

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.Purple_Pills said:

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.Purple_Pills said:

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

BottlesSome beers are meant to be drunk out of cans. Oly. PBR. Colors Banquet. Rainier. Schmidt. Tecate. I guess shitty beers. Adds to the shittiness of them.
-
BottlesRainier 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.

Yes.

CansOne if the biggest factors for me is ease of storage. My garage is packed to the brim as it is with 2 SUVs and gear so no room for separate beer bridge. The main fridge is already crammed dealing with the needs of a family of 4. 12 oz cans are a far more efficient use of space than 12 oz bottles.
There's also the safety issue of outdoor recreational drinking with glass bottles. Seeing busted glass in the great outdoors really chaps my ass. -

When my Dad was still alive I regularly went on sand dune camping trips with him and the rest of my tuff, quad riding logger family. Environmentally responsible disposal of bottles and cans consisted of throwing them in the fire pit. Some of the cans would disappear into vapor but most just stayed there. I figured that the bottles would at least break down over time and go back to sand.YellowSnow said:

I prefer my Banquets in a can for the same reasons you listed.YellowSnow said:One if the biggest factors for me is ease of storage.

Cans are lighter and fit better in my beer fridge; don’t make a huge racquet when I’m dumping them in the recycling bin; and they’re safer in the pool and hot tub. Safety first. Beer always. -

Nothing changed with me. Just got call from DOS EQUIS 5 minutes ago and told me I was to show up in Maltby. If dad has stuff to do have him leave with you. I'll have Anna take me and Dad can leave with you, because Dad is always drunk. I would prefer u and dad leave together. I'll ask Anna. Shouldn't be a problem. If she can't I'll let you know

No preference. Only care what's in it. Some of my favorites are in cans, some bottles.
