Which is better？Canned beer or bottled beer?

Whether it is canned beer or canned beverages, the taste is better than bottled, because the canned packaging can match the taste of beer very well. The following is the relevant information compiled by NAVAN about which is better to drink, canned beer or bottled beer.

What is the difference between canned beer and bottled beer？

Despite much evidence to the contrary, some still believe that the bottle itself is a sign of beer quality. This is a misconception carried over from decades ago by high-end beer and "import beer" brands.

There are many advantages to canned beer over bottled beer, some of which have to do with keeping beer fresh.

CAN completely blocks the light from the outside

Exposure to sunlight is the enemy of novelty beer, as it causes oxidation and the dreaded "stinky" taste when the light shines on the beer. The brown bottle blocks the light better than the green or clear bottle, which is part of the reason Heineken is notorious for its foul smell, but the canned one is better than all the bottles. Light cannot penetrate aluminum, which gives them a great advantage in terms of novelty.

CAN are well sealed

It probably doesn't matter if you're drinking packaged beer for the first three or four months (the recommended shelf life for most beers), but over a long period of time it can make a big difference. Bottles with corks still allow tiny amounts of oxygen to enter the bottle, a process known as micro-oxidation, which is why Belgian beers still have residual yeast that will continue to ferment lightly and "aged" beers. That's a good thing for bottled Belgian beers, but if you want a fully airtight container, a can will do just fine.

Canning technology has improved over the past decade

Total Package Oxygen (TPO) is a measurement of how much oxygen is left from the dissolved oxygen in the liquid itself, and how much oxygen is left in the top of the can or bottle. The higher the dissolved oxygen and/or TPO content, the faster the aroma and flavor of the beer will be broken down. When it comes to packaging, oxygen is the enemy. "In terms of filling, the technology has gotten really good.

Beer's metallic taste doesn't come from the CAN

Some say aluminum packaging leaves a metallic taste in beer, but beer cans are lined, and the metallic taste may be the result of a problem that surfaced during the brewing process, not the packaging. If the beer comes in contact with anything other than stainless steel it can develop a metallic taste during the brewing process, but most breweries these days use stainless steel, water chemistry or improperly stored brewed grains can also produce a taste known as metallic smell.

In addition to the technical advantages of canned beer, I am more inclined to choose canned beer because it is more convenient.
