When the store clerk asks me, “Paper or plastic?”, I sometimes get a glazed look over my eyes.
However, when I go to the store to purchase beer and ask myself bottles or cans the answer is easy. Beer comes in clear, green, brown, opaque bottles and cans.
I recently compared Newcastle Brown Ale in the can and the bottle and found the canned beer more enjoyable that the bottled beer.
Why would it make a difference? UV and florescent lighting changes the hop compounds in beer. The change results in an unpleasant aroma referred to as skunking.
If you like your Corona, grab the case. If you the Lowen brau, grab the case. These beers are very delicate and are better protected in the case than they would be in the six-pack.
