    I prefer can's.

    They keep the drink colder and makes the drink taste better. Especially with coca cola.

    I prefer going in the can. I cant fit my penis into a bottle


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,739 ✭✭✭✭minidazzler


    Depends on the drink. Beer from a bottle or draft, Coke is better from a can.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,554 ✭✭✭✭alwaysadub


    I prefere bottles-with soft drinks i can close the bottle and bring it round with me if i have to.

    Cans of Coke and Club Orange are much nicer than bottles.

    I find the less of the drink is in the 'container' the nicer it is so Coca Cola in order of taste goes like:

    Can
    350ml bottle
    500ml Bottle
    1.25L Bottle
    1.5L Bottle
    2L Bottle

    Presume they do this as it'd cost you more to buy 6 cans of the 'really nice' coke than a 2L bottle!

    Prefer bottles, I feel obliged to drink the entire contents of the can soon after opening.

    I was under the assumption that coke tastes overwhelmingly better from a bottle. :confused:
    (edit: glass bottle that is.)

    I prefer cans for beer. You don't have to go and a refill as often and you can crush the can in your hand when you're finished to try and make yourself feel manly. :)

    Bottle is better in a bar fight....

    Minerals in a can. Beer in a bottle.

    It's the same with a 2L of Coke to be honest, you get about three hours to drink it or it's gone flat....no matter how hard you screw the cap on :mad:

    I think you were trying to sound manly, but just said that your penis is small enough to fit in a bottle :D

    remember the supercans in the early 1990s? I miss those.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 542 ✭✭✭cleremy jarkson


    A chilled 500ml plastic bottle of coke is the nicest in my opinion.

    And with beer, cold cans are better than bottles. So satisfying just knocking them back.

    beer and lucozade from a bottle, all other soft drinks from a can


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,475 ✭✭✭KaiserGunner


    When it comes to beer its has to be bottles but with soft drinks has to be a can. Pity beer doesnt come in 500ml bottles and cans of soft drinks dont come in 500ml cans.:(

    Was only thinking something similar in the car on the way to work!

    PINT or Bottle? For me its bottle ALL the way!!

    That depends on how broke I am going to the pub.

    Every beverage tastes better from a glass bottle.

    I much prefer a can when drink coke, fanta, etc. When it comes to beer, I think bottles are way nicer. My favourite would be fanta and coke out of the pump in mcdonalds and kfc.

    Yeah cans of minerals are 100 times nices then in a bottle, particularly coke and bottles of beer are 100 times nicer then cans of beer


  • Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 11,017 Mod ✭✭✭✭yoyo


    Cans FTW, even prefare cans over bottles for beer, first there usually bigger (standard bottles are 33cl, beer cans 50cl) and they arnt as flat as bottles, also prefare drinking from the can than from the bottle spout (I actually have to pour a bottle into a glass to drink it), If I'm out in a restaurant and theres only bottled beer on offer I'll go for a soft drink instead, really can't stand bottled beer... Draught is of course the best option but its too costly for me :):o

    I was actually having a debate with a friend lastnight about this.

    I prefer cans especially with cider! If I get cider in a pub or store I would buy it in a can I find it nicer than bottles or pints. I love cans of coke but only buy them in a 6 pack to put in the fridge. I tend to go for a bottle when I am out and about because I can close them.

    Beer is nicer from a bottle, minerals and cider are nicer from a can


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,289 ✭✭✭parker kent


    Glass bottles rock. Drinking from can sucks in comparison. I don't drink anything that comes in plastic bottles (other than water) so that is not an area of my expertise.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,737 ✭✭✭✭kylith


    Cans of coke taste much better than plastic bottles, but the handyness of being able to close the bottle wins for me.

    In Japan you can get aluminium bottles of Coke; best of both worlds. I don't know why they don't bring them in over here.

    I can't remember the last time I drank a soft drink I just seem to have gone of them completely.

    Alcohol is much better from the bottle, even better than pints in some cases. I've been drinking bottles of Guinness lately and it's lovely. Last time I went to the pub I went drinking pints of Guinness and was in a horrible state the next day with farts that would strip paint of the walls, don't get that with the bottled Guinness.

    I would say I'd love if they sold the bottled Guinness in the pubs but it would probably cost over a fiver for one bottle if they did.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,038 ✭✭✭jackiebaron


    If the can is empty you can't throw it at the cops as effectively as an empty bottle and it doesn't make that lovely tinkling sound upon impact.

    But the best missiles are jars of mayonaise. The mess they make is incredible. Garda patrol cars and personnel plastered in wads of stinking white goo.

    Bovril and Marmite jars are a close second.

    cans keep the drink colder and tend to taste better, but there's more to drink from a bottle.

    this thread has left me feeling quite conflicted.

    Coke from a can is the best drink ever. Those glass bottles used to be my fav, it's all can town now

    Cans for soft drinks

    Bottles for alcohol


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 375 ✭✭Raedwald


    I enjoy drinking soft drinks out of cans, however I would generally drink beer out of bottles whenever i'm at house parties or at home.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 688 ✭✭✭Roomic Cube


    coke from a can is so much nicer!
