Ani Posted October 6, 2025 Posted October 6, 2025 Do people prefer drinking bottled beer or cans ? In our local Supermarket I reckon it is 75/25 in favour of cans. I hate drinking beer from cans. Yes I have been bored and need to find something to pass the time, shopping for weekend beer on a Monday won’t end well. Quote

Buy almost exclusively cans but just pour it into a glass. Quote
Jol_BWFC Posted October 6, 2025 Posted October 6, 2025 Bottles at home, cans on the train to an away game. Quote
Casino Posted October 6, 2025 Posted October 6, 2025 Prefer bottles, brown ones Cans are ok for rivvy stuff Quote
tomski Posted October 7, 2025 Posted October 7, 2025 Bottles but not offended by cans. Cans are better when travelling Quote
Dr Faustus Posted October 7, 2025 Posted October 7, 2025 Bottles dear boy, though I really struggle with lager Quote
gonzo Posted October 7, 2025 Posted October 7, 2025 Pint cans for me. Need the hits and know where I'm at volume wise Don't mind the bigger bottles of Heineken if there's an offer on. Quote
Spider Posted October 7, 2025 Posted October 7, 2025 Less impurities in cans. But real men drink from glasses anyway Quote

I should have said the assumption is glasses are not available, so away trip on a train is the best example. I agree on pouring out of can when possible. Quote
Zico Posted October 7, 2025 Posted October 7, 2025 Cans, though at home everything gets poured into a glass anyway Only time I'll drink from a can is on a train, and that is preferable to bottles for me Quote
Dimron Posted October 7, 2025 Posted October 7, 2025 Draft Guinness from the can into the glass if I drink at home. Lager is piss. Quote
Whitestar Posted October 7, 2025 Posted October 7, 2025 Always pour into a glass, and I'm very fussy about which glass, got hundreds but there's only about 4-5 I'd ever use, I'm the same with cups and cutlery. Quote

We have one specific fork that my step daughter hates. If they ever come for Sunday dinner and I set the table, there it is ! 😂😎. It is a shit fork. Quote
Whitestar Posted October 7, 2025 Posted October 7, 2025 Got a nice wine glass that holds nearly a pint, on Christmas eve (& only Christmas eve,) i like to sip Guinness original out of that glass. Quote

LOL, exactly the same, we call it dog fork as its probably only fit for using to get dog food out of a tin. Can't bring myself to throw it out and we don't have a dog. Quote

Ani Posted October 7, 2025 Author Posted October 7, 2025 I do think if drinking in the house you need a proper beer glass, you can not be using a Vimto glass Quote

Have you tried the nitro surge? if it’s done right it’s very good. always drink out of a glass and won’t drink out of plastic glasses no matter what , so never have a pint at the match or anywhere else where people can’t be trusted not to drop, chick or smash into someone. partly taste as I think it tastes crap but also down to a healthy dose of stubbornness and being contrary .
