The fine art of beer transport

A lot of guys pretend they can tell the difference between various types of beer. Mostly, they're just making this up. I enjoy beer as much as the next man, and there are certainly some beers that are better than others out there, but a lot of male beer talk is plain nonsense.

So I am not plugging a specific kind of beer here. But I do endorse this kind of can. The profile of the aluminum here creates a much stronger, more durable container than your normal, straight-sided version. Which is pretty important if you're going to drag it over rocky roads and have no running water at your destination.

Sometimes people tell me that I must have learned a lot by living up here.
"A little bit," I say.

My brand is "BEER" preferably cool. Stored in the shade is good enough. Cheap is good free is better. Other than that I'm not fussy. Beer taste like beer.

I found on the boat that bottles worked better for long range. I actually had cans wear through from constant vibration on two occasions. I think that means I wasn't drinking it fast enough. Bottles are heavy and contrary to popular belief hard to break so make a better weapon when empty.

This is making me thirsty.

It seems blogger has eatem my previous comment...

I know no 'real man' (or at least no real bloke) should ever admit this but I don't like beer.

This is a bit ironic when I live in Germany, but there we go. I come from the UK and I don't like soccer either.

Nothing against either, I hasten to add, and if your idea of a good time is drinking beer and watching soccer, that's fine by me. I'll probably not join you though.
