• Glass Bottling Plants Are Shutting Down After Bud Light Boycott Slammed

    From Technobarbarian@21:1/5 to All on Tue Jul 11 09:00:24 2023
    I love this sort of stupid story. It's not like people are boycotting the entire beer industry. Budweiser's competitors appear to be picking up the sales Budweiser lost. So, for every job lost due to the boycott someone must be picking up more work
    somewhere else. Budweiser likes to talk about the poor sad people who are losing jobs because of something they didn't have anything to do with. No one is talking about the people who must be celebrating their gains.

    If and when the boycott ends I wonder if we'll be getting stories about the poor sad people who lost jobs because the boycott ended. lol

    Hey. I just had a very very beautiful idea. The most beautiful idea in
    all of history. Why don't we have an uncivil conversation about
    whether it's better to drink beer from bottles or cans? I'll start:
    So I prefer my beer in, like, you know, a chilled mug.

    However comma when I'm forced by an inflection point of unfortunate circumstances beyond my control to drink from a can or bottle, I
    prefer bottles because I'm unfairly disadvantaged by a nose that
    exceeds the length metric of the statistically average nose, and to
    get all of the beer out of a can, I have to tilt my head so far back
    that I sometimes fall down - or tip my chair over backwards. And the
    results of that event are too variable and numerous to bring into this discussion at this point at this time in the passage of time. Maybe
    later when this conversation inevitably goes off the rails?

    We might even have the opportunity to have a lively and informative conversation about the rightwing/leftwing ecological and ideological
    aspects of bottles and cans?

    I don't know for a fact so I will speak out of school for once in my
    life. Probably the ones hit the hardest are the distributors and their employees. I don't think it's as easy as telling Coors or Lone Star,
    etc. that they now want to be one of their distributors. I suppose it
    can happen but not overnight. In the meantime...

    I lack the words to describe how wrong you are. Beer loses too much of its fizz when you pour it into a mug, especially a chilled mug. The obvious right choice, even for you, is drinking very cold beer from an aluminum "bottle".

    Aluminum is the most ecological choice. Glass bottles are for troglodytes who don't recognize superior technology.

    ""WHY ARE ALUMINUM BEER BOTTLES BECOMING MORE POPULAR?
    When it comes to storing and transporting beer, aluminum bottles are becoming an increasingly popular choice. As well as being lighter than their glass counterparts, aluminum beer bottles have a number of advantages that make them the go-to choice for
    many brewers and tasters. In this blog post, we'll be exploring why aluminum beer bottles are gaining traction in the world of craft brewing.

    To begin with, one of the main reasons that aluminum beer bottles are becoming so popular is their weight. While glass bottles can be heavy and cumbersome to carry around, aluminum bottles offer a lightweight alternative that makes them easier to
    transport without sacrificing quality or freshness. This makes them perfect for those who need to bring their favorite brews with them on the go.

    Moreover, aluminum beer bottles also offer a great way to keep beer fresher for longer due to their airtight seal which prevents oxygen from entering and spoiling the contents. This is especially important for craft beers which require a certain level of
    quality control in order to preserve their flavor profile and aromas. Not only does this ensure that drinkers enjoy the best possible taste experience every time they open a bottle, but it also helps brewers maintain consistency in their products over
    time.

    Aluminum beer bottles are more environmentally friendly than glass ones as they can be recycled over and over again without any loss of quality or purity. This means that they're less likely to end up in landfills or clogging up our waterways – making
    them a great choice for those looking to reduce their carbon footprint while still enjoying a delicious beverage!

    It's easy to see why aluminum beer bottles are becoming such a popular choice among brewers and drinkers alike. Not only do they provide an easy way to transport your favorite brews without any extra weight or bulkiness but they also keep beer fresher
    for longer while being more eco-friendly than traditional glass containers. So if you're looking for an easy way to enjoy your favorite beers on the go without compromising on quality or freshness – consider investing in some aluminum beer bottles

    Can't argue with that.

    Moreover, aluminum beer bottles also offer a great way to keep beer

    What? How is a bottle cap on an aluminum bottle more airtight than a
    bottle cap on a glass bottle?

    This is especially
    important for craft beers which require a certain level of quality
    control in order to preserve their flavor profile and aromas.

    If you want aroma, you're not going to get it out of a small hole in a
    bottle. You get aroma from a mug - while you're sipping the beer.
    Unless you drink through your nose, you're not gonna get much aroma
    with the bottle stuck in your mouth.

    Not
    only does this ensure that drinkers enjoy the best possible taste

    I dunno 'bout that. I see a lot more cans than bottles beside the
    road, and an aluminum bottle is little more than a can shaped like bottle.

    It's easy to see why aluminum beer bottles are becoming such a
    popular choice among brewers and drinkers alike. Not only do they

    That article also says: -------------------------------------------------------------
    Do Aluminum Bottles Keep Beer Colder?

    It depends on a number of factors, such as the size and shape of the
    bottles, the ambient temperature, and the type of beer. However, some experiments have shown that aluminum bottles may keep beer colder for
    a longer period of time than glass bottles.

    The reason why aluminum bottles might keep beer colder for longer is
    bcause aluminum is a good conductor of heat. This means that it can
    transfer heat away from the beer more efficiently than glass, which is
    a poor conductor of heat. Therefore, the aluminum bottle can cool down
    more quickly than the glass bottle, and the beer will remain cooler
    for longer.
    -------------------------------------------------------
    Most - but not all - of that is bullshit. Since aluminum is, in fact,
    a good conductor of heat, how the hell is it going to keep beer colder
    longer? It won't. Beer will warm up a lot faster in aluminum. However
    comma it will chill faster.
    Follow the science.

    The best choice for me is a glass of draft. I like a chilled mug, but
    either way will do. I don't like a place that gives a fresh glass after
    each beer, and I ask them not to do so. They just taste better in the
    same glass you just drank.

    If the choice is between a bottle or can, if I'm somewhere disposal is
    easy, bottled always is the preference. Beer in the can has to be
    burped to let off some of the carbonation. If possible, I would pour it
    in a glass to give it a good head and let off those bubbles. In this
    scenario, a chilled glass is desirable. If not, just keep the beer cold
    before pouring. No glasses, make it work.

    It's all good!

    Glass Bottling Plants Are Shutting Down After Bud Light Boycott

    Hey. I just had a very very beautiful idea. The most beautiful idea in
    all of history. Why don't we have an uncivil conversation about
    whether it's better to drink beer from bottles or cans? I'll start:
    So I prefer my beer in, like, you know, a chilled mug.

    However comma when I'm forced by an inflection point of unfortunate
    circumstances beyond my control to drink from a can or bottle, I
    prefer bottles because I'm unfairly disadvantaged by a nose that
    exceeds the length metric of the statistically average nose, and to
    get all of the beer out of a can, I have to tilt my head so far back
    that I sometimes fall down - or tip my chair over backwards. And the
    results of that event are too variable and numerous to bring into this
    discussion at this point at this time in the passage of time. Maybe
    later when this conversation inevitably goes off the rails?

    We might even have the opportunity to have a lively and informative
    conversation about the rightwing/leftwing ecological and ideological
    aspects of bottles and cans?

           I lack the words to describe how wrong you are. Beer loses
    too much of its fizz when you pour it into a mug, especially a
    chilled mug. The obvious right choice, even for you, is drinking
    very cold beer from an aluminum "bottle".

           Aluminum is the most ecological choice. Glass bottles are for >> troglodytes who don't recognize superior technology.

    ""WHY ARE ALUMINUM BEER BOTTLES BECOMING MORE POPULAR?
    When it comes to storing and transporting beer, aluminum bottles are
    becoming an increasingly popular choice. As well as being lighter
    than their glass counterparts, aluminum beer bottles have a number
    of advantages that make them the go-to choice for many brewers and
    tasters. In this blog post, we'll be exploring why aluminum beer
    bottles are gaining traction in the world of craft brewing.

    To begin with, one of the main reasons that aluminum beer bottles
    are becoming so popular is their weight. While glass bottles can be
    heavy and cumbersome to carry around, aluminum bottles offer a
    lightweight alternative that makes them easier to transport without
    sacrificing quality or freshness. This makes them perfect for those
    who need to bring their favorite brews with them on the go.


    The heavier bottle helps keep me in better physical condition.

    Moreover, aluminum beer bottles also offer a great way to keep beer
    fresher for longer due to their airtight seal which prevents oxygen
    from entering and spoiling the contents. This is especially
    important for craft beers which require a certain level of quality
    control in order to preserve their flavor profile and aromas. Not
    only does this ensure that drinkers enjoy the best possible taste
    experience every time they open a bottle, but it also helps brewers
    maintain consistency in their products over time.

    Aluminum beer bottles are more environmentally friendly than glass
    ones as they can be recycled over and over again without any loss of
    quality or purity. This means that they're less likely to end up in
    landfills or clogging up our waterways – making them a great
    choice for those looking to reduce their carbon footprint while
    still enjoying a delicious beverage!

    It's easy to see why aluminum beer bottles are becoming such a
    popular choice among brewers and drinkers alike. Not only do they
    provide an easy way to transport your favorite brews without any
    extra weight or bulkiness but they also keep beer fresher for longer
    while being more eco-friendly than traditional glass containers. So
    if you're looking for an easy way to enjoy your favorite beers on
    the go without compromising on quality or freshness – consider
    investing in some aluminum beer bottles today!""

    You forgot to mention that the can also blocks sunlight. Sunlight is
    known to skunk a beer.

    I won't comment on the size of bfh's nose - mentioned elsewhere - except
    to say that it's often where it doesn't belong. HawHawHaw!

    I couldn't resist trolling the yeast piss snobs with a ridiculous post of the subject. If I'm going to drink a beer all I care about is that it's cold. But bfh makes a significant point. The way it smells is an important part of what he bought.
    Odors can bring back memories and moods. They can cause your body to release happy or sad chemicals. If I'm preparing someone for a flogging I let them smell my leather flogger. This helps to get the right hormones flowing. It's a learned response, but
    a good one.

    The only time beer had a significant role in my life was when I was in the Navy. I don't have any great associations with it. It doesn't bring back happy memories or moods. All I get out of the smell is that it confirms that I'm drinking beer, and
    I can smell it just fine without flooding my nose with that smell.

    I love this sort of stupid story. It's not like people are
    boycotting the entire beer industry. Budweiser's competitors appear
    to be picking up the sales Budweiser lost. So, for every job lost

    else. Budweiser likes to talk about the poor sad people who are
    losing jobs because of something they didn't have anything to do
    with. No one is talking about the people who must be celebrating
    their gains.

    If and when the boycott ends I wonder if we'll be getting stories
    about the poor sad people who lost jobs because the boycott ended.

    Glass Bottling Plants Are Shutting Down After Bud Light Boycott

    Hey. I just had a very very beautiful idea. The most beautiful idea in >>>> all of history. Why don't we have an uncivil conversation about
    whether it's better to drink beer from bottles or cans? I'll start:
    So I prefer my beer in, like, you know, a chilled mug.

    However comma when I'm forced by an inflection point of unfortunate
    circumstances beyond my control to drink from a can or bottle, I
    prefer bottles because I'm unfairly disadvantaged by a nose that
    exceeds the length metric of the statistically average nose, and to
    get all of the beer out of a can, I have to tilt my head so far back
    that I sometimes fall down - or tip my chair over backwards. And the
    results of that event are too variable and numerous to bring into this >>>> discussion at this point at this time in the passage of time. Maybe
    later when this conversation inevitably goes off the rails?

    We might even have the opportunity to have a lively and informative
    conversation about the rightwing/leftwing ecological and ideological
    aspects of bottles and cans?

    Theory don't mean squat if it don't work.

    I lack the words to describe how wrong you are. Beer loses too much of its fizz when you pour it into a mug, especially a chilled mug. The obvious right choice, even for you, is drinking very cold beer from an aluminum "bottle".

    Aluminum is the most ecological choice. Glass bottles are for troglodytes who don't recognize superior technology.

    ""WHY ARE ALUMINUM BEER BOTTLES BECOMING MORE POPULAR?
    When it comes to storing and transporting beer, aluminum bottles are becoming an increasingly popular choice. As well as being lighter than their glass counterparts, aluminum beer bottles have a number of advantages that make them the go-to choice
    for many brewers and tasters. In this blog post, we'll be exploring why aluminum beer bottles are gaining traction in the world of craft brewing.

    To begin with, one of the main reasons that aluminum beer bottles are becoming so popular is their weight. While glass bottles can be heavy and cumbersome to carry around, aluminum bottles offer a lightweight alternative that makes them easier to
    transport without sacrificing quality or freshness. This makes them perfect for those who need to bring their favorite brews with them on the go.

    The heavier bottle helps keep me in better physical condition.
    Moreover, aluminum beer bottles also offer a great way to keep beer fresher for longer due to their airtight seal which prevents oxygen from entering and spoiling the contents. This is especially important for craft beers which require a certain
    level of quality control in order to preserve their flavor profile and aromas. Not only does this ensure that drinkers enjoy the best possible taste experience every time they open a bottle, but it also helps brewers maintain consistency in their
    products over time.

    Aluminum beer bottles are more environmentally friendly than glass ones as they can be recycled over and over again without any loss of quality or purity. This means that they're less likely to end up in landfills or clogging up our waterways –
    making them a great choice for those looking to reduce their carbon footprint while still enjoying a delicious beverage!

    I always smell the cap or pop top when opening a "manly man" real beer.
    Gotta' make sure it's the proper vintage and doesn't smell like alcohol
    infused water. Like you though (what a surprise), my favorite beer is
    "cold". I do prefer a good amber however.
