Question for beer drinkers
Does it really matter if the beer is kept cold from the time it leaves Golden, Colorado?

So why would you frost brew something, then let it get hot in a truck, and then cool it down again?

That would depend on what is leftover. Stuffing the day after Thanksgiving is awesome, especially with a turkey sandwich.

The reason for all the beer ad campaigns is because it is essentially the same product fighting for market share.
When you can't win on the merits, you win with gimmicks and brand loyalty. Born-on date. Blue can. Draft horses. Dalmation. Famous football players. etc. |

That being said, American macro brews are lacking in the qualities (taste) that are found in craft and many European brews. Thus keeping the beer cold covers up many of the taste flaws and "enhances drinkability." Finally, I love Coors.

Shipping beer in refrigerated trucks is simply a marketing gimmick.

Let's be clear on this. This is a political, not a culinary, statement.
