the same way people call us beer snobs for looking at the colour and aroma of the beer we happen to be drinking rather than just skulling it.
generalisations are a bad thing.

unless you are talking about dutch gold drinkers in whitch case they are all scobies <!-- s:lol: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_lol.gif" alt=":lol:" title="Laughing" /><!-- s:lol: --> *

to be fair, i've never seen anything other than cooking lager coming in cans, hence my perception is slightly skewed I think!

My question was really, if you go into the off license and you beer of choice is available in both bottle and can,would you,
a choose bottle over can if the price was the same,
b choose bottle over can evan if the bottle was dearer.

Assuming no widgets or other foul play, can both times. Here I think it's only going to come up, for me, with Budvar. And with the green glass bottles it's a no-brainer.

id choose cans if the same price. easy to recycle and less likley to smash in my experience.

i have never used larger in cooking

i find guinness extra stout, old speckeld hen and a IPA i cant recall the name of from supervalue nice and drinkable.

[b:19dh72pr]There's nothing in the canning process that would do this.[/b:19dh72pr]

Funny, I thought Deuchars was a widget can for some reason. I've never tasted canned Pride, but the bottled version is pretty damn fizzy to begin with, IMO.[/quote:19dh72pr]


There possibly is

If you are canning a beer , you batch pasteurise , as far as I know , then can it , there's a shorter open time from dispense into the can to sealing .

If you are bottling a beer , it's poured into the bottle , sent around the line pasteurised enroute to the capping station and a tiny jet of water is injected to fizz it up a little before capping .

THis takes about 25 mins on the bottling line I saw

If you take the same batch of beer and carbonate it identically , the canned one will probably retain more carbonation .


That's my understanding anyway
