Which keeps beer colder, a glass bottle, or metal can?

Answer 1

Definately a bottle.But it stays colder longer when you put a zip up beer cozy on it.You can purchase them at your local beer store and they also come in a variety of colors too.Bottoms up!

Answer 2

As both a degreed mechanical engineer and a home brewer, a glass bottle will keep the beer cold longer than a metal can because the metal conducts heat more readily. This means that the heat (a form of energy) is allowed to enter the beer faster through a metal can than through a glass bottle. The downside is that the glass bottle also means it takes longer to cool for the same reason, but I think the bottles are better anyway because the cans seem to affect the flavor of the beer.

Answer 3

I think glass bottles are better then the can, and the best way to keep that glass bottle cold is to turn it upside down in the ice, it works great! Can doesnt taste as well as when in a bottle.

Glass
