Which do you prefer when you are drinking beer?

Bottles or cans?

You don't think it tastes different when it comes from a can?

Prefer to drink out of bottles. Prefer cans much more once empty. Throwing empty bottles at a trash can across the room is a little riskier.

Depends on the beer but I mostly drink beer that only comes in bottles so there really isn't a choice.

But for example I prefer PBR from a can rather than a bottle.

Draft > Bottle > Can.

Canned beer loses too much flavor.

Bottles unless I'm going for the Wade Boggs then its cans. Draft beer makes me fart.

This. Could be my imagination, but canned beer tastes metallic to me. Draft by far then bottles for me.

Bottles, but I don't get the hate for cans. There are some really legit beers that are canned now, mostly uber-local microbrews (Half Acre in Chicago, Surly in Minneapolis, Dale's from Colorado). While bottles may have a stigma of pouring "better" beer, cans are more than OK as long as the beer is more than OK. Just pour it into a glass and enjoy!

I am sure posters such as etb, snotbubbles, and jordo all prefer bottles, because they probably think it somewhat resembles a penis. I choose bottles, because I feel like the beer tastes a bit better from the bottle.

I prefer bottles, but generally go cans for several reasons.

1. The throw away factor is under rated. Garbage night alerts the neighbors within a two block radius that you are indeed a fricken' lush.

2. The stack factor. The mini fridge is set at such a cold temperature that eco friendly tree huggers everywhere would cringe. Bottles simply don't store as well.

3. When I am going to be drinking, I'm not going to be just sippin' a couple, Imma pound a bunch, and safety becomes an issue along with the stack factor.

Really doesn't matter much to me but I don't like to switch between the two. If I start out drinking cans I like to drink cans all day; same with bottles.

That.

Cans are for large parties and car rides.

Either way it's going in a glass when I drink it so I have no preference. No difference between the two.

If draft was a choice, I easily would have gone with that.

The best way I've found is re-heating in a skillet on a stove. But I will eat it cold.

It's mostly bottles for me, if I don't have draft. There are many microbrews that are using cans now.

Oh yeah, without a doubt. Hurp.

Bottles have a metallic taste as well, from the bottle cap. I actually prefer cans, but it also depends on the beer.
