as a QLDer

i went stubbies, only way, if it was meant to be in a tin, the pub would serve me a drink in an old baked bean can.

but no they are served in glass,

Also been a bundy boy, the local drop in a bottle for pure taste, premixed or straight.

Glass stubbies is the way to go, camping anyting always glass for me, i dont care if i can fit less in i just take more eskies.

I only buy beer in bottles, unless it's an English or Irish Ale, which seem to come in big cans.

When I drink beer, I never drink straight out of the bottle. Pouring it allows it to properly mix.

And I don't touch CUB, because I can drink out of the toilet for free.

Beer always tastes better from the glass, also the colder the better.

Bloody hell... now I feel like a beer...

Stubbies all the way - Canned beer tastes metallic and wrong, and I always spill down my front with cans... I'm special.

Any aperartus is sweet in my view, though stubbies for special occations, hence the huge bogan factor drinking tinnies at say a wedding, lol.

Glass really cold, to the point of just forming ice tastes best for me. but tinnies travel better when you're out fishing or camping.

Finally - a poll worth voting for

Useless trivia:
One of my mates stepdads is a fisherman - has been for all his life. They never take cans as they used to corrode at sea - so he always drunk out of stubbies. He wont drink out of cans - he will give a slab of cans away rather than drink them - He can taste the difference he reckons.

the old goon bag.

and once youve smashed 4 litres of your favourite $12 wine, you can blow it up and use it as a pillow.

love the goon.





and glass FTW.

tinnies = crap

stubbies for sure although as stated when fishing or camping definitely tinnies as they are easy to dispose of ect ect. if you don't like the way cans flow, you dent the can just below the opening and it is supposed to flow smoother. I'm somewhat skeptical as to whether or not this actually works it seems to, but could very well just be a mental thing...

Love the beer from a stubby.

Just a pain in the *** the amount of space in the bin that stubbies take up though.
