re: Why is bottled beer so much better than canned beer?

Bad beer is best cold. The aromatics in staple domestic lagers have a shitty nose, every single one of them which is why nobody likes them warm and preferably just before ice crystals form. Lots of good better is much better at warmer temps up to and including room temp.
The same goes for freshness. Cheap domestics don't age well, many good beers actually bottle age fantastically. I have bottles that are 10+ years old that are better and more complex than they were "fresh" but like wine some age far better than others.

Germanic peoples were storing water. That's it. The Slavs would boil it every time or they'd get sick. Germanics figured out you could brew it with grain and store it long term. They gave it to their children, it had little flecks of bread in it. It was just their clean water.

This may be the gayest post I've ever read here.

While true an ice cold high life out the ice chest after doing yardwork is the greatest drink ever created

Glass is not recycled much and it’s heavy and supply chain issues fuel prices but in a bar fight bottles are handy

Depends on the beer IMO. Miller lite from a bottle is great. Yuengling is better in a can. All are better on tap. Just my opinion, TIFWIW.

The subject of complex vs fresh often comes up during caution flags at the NASCAR race and then a fight breaks out

I prefer carton or plastic bottle beer myself

I used to go for draft but a lot of places don’t clean their tap systems like they should and I’d occasionally find bits of unknown foreign substances in my beer. Preferably I like it straight from the bottle or poured from the bottle into an iced pint glass.

Agreed, Op needs to let us know which beer he drinks at room temp and how much.

Every drink tastes better bottle out of glass than aluminum. Even orange juice. I love the orange juice out of glass bottles.

I like the smokier dark beers at just at around 55 degrees. But I drink them during the winter time.

I truly appreciate the breadth of knowledge you bring to this board. From watches to jumping out of airplanes. You are a true polymath.
But you're wrong here.

The aluminum bottles are the worst
Everything tastes better in a glass bottle

because you taste the aluminum can that its in, same goes for soft drinks or anything else. glass doesnt add any flavor to whats in it, aluminum does
Aluminum cans are lined... no products ever actually touch the aluminum.

I drink Budweiser. Can, bottle or those 16 ounce aluminum bottles. Doesn't matter which.
Posted on 7/3/22 at 7:31 pm to armsdealer
This is correct. Your tongue touches the aluminum. That is where any perceived taste comes from.
Once again the best way to drink a beer is a cold in a glass.
I do agree a cold Budweiser in a bottle slaps differently than in a can especially when it is 100 degrees outside.

One of life’s finest hidden pleasures is an ice cold pony bottle of Miller High Life during the dog days of summer.
