Conclusion: A cheap beer cozy can be just as effective as a more expensive cozy, provided you get the right type. :confused:


On the other hand, an ineffective can cozy, while it may improve your grip on the can or keep your hand dry, will not do much to keep your beer cold. :huh:



So regardless of the price, the ones that work the best are the effective ones. And the ineffective ones don't work well at all.


Sounds to me like they had to make up the conclusion because they drank all the beer before they got any real results! :p

The only thing they didn't test is what the damn things were invented for an that's the heat of your hand when you're hold the beer. those smucks :banghead:

It's good to see that the art of science is not dead.

When I was young(er) a passing fad was the beer brick. This was a block of clay moulded into a cube with a hole in it the size of the bottom third of a beer can. There were fired in a kiln and then painted. The end result was a block which, when frozen, gave a heat sink which kept an open can ice cold.

They disappeared into time with the trilobites and the sabre-toothed gerbil, never again to be seen.

Excellent, gekkogecko.

Now, what did sabre-toothed gerbils taste like?
