Both - But mainly drink Pale so have to say stubs. Drink a bit of Coopers Mild Ale these days though, and would choose the tinned version

for me it's not that simple...........

When I was a West End drinker I prefered it out of a can (or tap), imo it taste below par out of a bottle

My doctor advised me I had to switch brews to a low carb, Super Dry is now my brew of choice, prefer the flavour out of a bottle but the can isn't that bad and after 1 or 2 can't tell the difference, added bonus with cans is they hold more and usually for the same cost

Other beers, it dependss on the beer, some are better from glass, some from the can

great question. it wasnt long ago that i usually preferred stubbies, however lately i seem to be drinking much more from cans.

going camping a fair bit lately cans store much better in the waeco or esky, and seem to take up less room elsewhere while waiting their turn to get cold. there is just something about an icy cold can in front of the campfire that appeals. that and the beer i have been drinking lately seems to be only available in cans so its a double whammy to stubbies.

if the choice was to include tap though, id agree with others and that wins handsdown.

I'll rarely drink tap beer these days, for some reason it seems to Hit me quicker than the stubby version

Cans for the fact that they are easier to recycle, I think the taste is better in a bottle though, the CC's & Cola in a bottle is the smoothest drink going.

Tins, as I've said in another thread - taste better, colder than echo's, easier to stack in fridge/esky & they bounce if you drop'em.

Its actually a proven fact that bottles stay colder for longer than cans.
Cans do get colder quicker but once theyre at fridge or esky temp bottles are either the same temp (if you skoll them) or colder.

Cans for me generally, simply because they are easier to recycle.
Though at this time of year its stubbies of Dark Ales or Stout

Stubbies all day.

Interesting the difference in taste, I really enjoy Coopers Pale on tap but not a fan in a bottle.

How are Cans easier to recycle?
I just chuck my empties in a big bag near the bin and when it's full, I take to the recycling depot for my $40 each time.

You don't stack them and count them before you go do you, like my tight ar$e old man does? ;)
