341 ml bottles of beer?

[Mayne]

Just fuck off with this glass bottle format please. I've gotten off my computer chair now twice as much to drink beer.

Tallboy cans of beer is how beer should be drunk.

and the bottles are fucking heavy too.

341 ml? How much is that in real volume? Like a pint? (or one of those 12 oz types?)

hmmm, no.

Bottle always taste better. I always found tallboy tasted strange and flat. It piss me off many of the local craft went cans.

Just buy bomber bottles.

Or get a mug and pour two beers at once.

Or get a mini fridge to put next to your PC.

I prefer a growler or something in between, but my typical "bottle" is a 650ml bomber.
341ml is weird, 11.5 oz ....

We have lots of 12oz bottles (approx 354ml) ..
US sized Pint bottles are not completely unheard of (473 ml)

As a craft beer lover, I'll take 16oz cans (and can growlers) over glass any day. No light, no headspace for air, no breakage, no cleaning growlers...all win.

I'm even okay with 12 oz cans. And since I don't have a car, cans are great since I have to carry everything from the store - they're much lighter than bottles. Unfortunately, most craft beers at my local grocery store are still bottles.

I built a 4 tap freezer in my basement and I get 1/5 barrels from the local brewery.

Why do you freeze your beer?

I usually can't finish a growler before it goes flat. I wish 16oz bottles were more common.

I often drink with a friend or a group of friends, so, if theres 2 of us, a growler is perfect, if theres like 10 of us, we normally bring many growlers, but, we may all try a small couple ounce sample of each thing or something along those lines ... try out interesting new brews...

That said, if I'm at home, and drinking, It is usally with dinner, and Im most likely drinking some kind of stout or some other beer with generally very low carbonation....

Ah, I'm the only one in my house who drinks beer so if I bring a growler home I have to finish it myself.

A can of Murphy's stout sure sounds good tonight, though.

341ml is 12 imperial ounces but only 11.5 real American ounces.

0.008317 firkins.

Which is 2.011438571416 quarribles. Remember there are 241.8466488 firkins to a quarrible. Unless you're talking about *dry* quarribles, in which case it's 178.346892.

I disagree. I'm more sensitive to bottle taste than I am to can taste. Pouring into a clean glass helps a ton, though.

The switch to cans is for many good reasons:

--packaging cost
--freshness
--temperature regulation.

Aluminum cans are superior to bottles for all of these metrics. If taste is that important to you, though, you should be pouring into a glass anyway. The sensitivity to aluminum or glass bottles is mostly eliminated.

341ml is 12 imperial ounces but only 11.5 real American ounces.

And yet your gallons are smaller.

Admit it: your entire system of weights and measures sounds made-up.

Solution - don't buy bottled beer?

I used to love drinking the 7oz "Pony" bottles of Rolling Rock. They never got even close to warm. 42 to a case of the returnables. In a bar, they were something like 45 cents each. Of course, you had to go to a real bar, with an attentive bartender who puts your next drink down in front of you before you ask. But that's just as true today, no matter the drink size.

 

[MongGrel]

I usually buy pint cans myself.

But pour them into pint glasses.
