The shape of the container sends the bubbles in different orientations which greatly affects the smell which affects the taste.

I don't like Miller lite but it just tastes different in an aluminum bottle.
You can't beat drinking beer out of frosty mug.

IDK why. But I love an ice cold draft beer.

Ok, hear me out…I worked at a brewery and had this argument many many times.
First off, same beer…absolutely no difference between bottled keg and can. Even growler fills are same batch of beer.
I do agree can tastes different. Proved it in a blind taste test. The reason, believe it or not, is…..
Your nose. As in the aluminum is affecting your taste buds when you put it up to your mouth and it’s that close to your nose.
Solution (or confirmation) is to buy a can top twist cutter/opener from Amazon or TikTok. Game changer. Every can beer tastes like draft now and goes down super easy.
TLDR- aluminum beer can, nose affects taste buds

May be psychological. I swear I read that someone did a blind test (must have poured into tasting cups) and no one could tell whether the source container was glass or a can. Could perhaps be misremembering, but that is what I remember.
Would make sense that pouring everything into a similar glass does even out differences.
Even though there are certainly differences in how it is stored, the main difference comes from what you drink it from. That's why there are wine, champagne, lowball, beer etc glasses.

Im just going to put this out there. Old English 800 tasted great nearly frozen in a glass 40oz bottle. This was in the 90's and early 2000's. Now they are in plastic 2 liter looking bottles. when it's warmer than near frozen it tastes like shite.

Nothing makes an IPA taste good is all I know. Maybe dump it in a glass, swirl it around, dump it out, then wash it and drink the dish soap?

I don't drink anything out of a can. Can't stand cans..

IPAs are a pretty wide brush to paint with, but if you don’t like drinks with a bit of a bitter backbone, you won’t like IPAs. For anyone who likes that flavor profile, like with herbal or tonic based cocktails, IPAs can be quite good.
