New Coors Aluminum Pint Bottle

You can now get a proper pint of Coors Light.

Coors just launched its new one-pint aluminum beer bottle. That’s a full 4 oz. or 33% more than the usual 12 oz bottle.

Personally, I prefer the smaller “pony” bottle which is about 5 oz. With the regular 12 oz bottle, the beer gets warm in my hand even before I finish it. So the pony is perfect for me.

I can’t complain about the advertisement for this new 1-pint aluminum bottle though.

Check out the neat commercial below.

Aluminum Bottles vs. Steel Gallon Drums

I wanted to devote this post to our 1-gallon seamless aluminum bottle.

Industrial aluminum bottles get very little attention but they play a huge, unheralded role in the storage and transport of the materials that are at the heart of end products like perfumes, vitamins, etc.

The seamless aluminum bottle is an ideal alternative to the more widely used steel gallon drum. First of all, it is 3 times lighter than its steel counterpart so there is the immediate advantage of lower transport costs. The content weight to container weight ratios are better with aluminum bottles. It takes a lot less fuel to transport a gallon of essential oil in our seamless aluminum bottle compared to steel drums.

Handling of aluminum bottles is also easier for humans. Their lighter weight makes them easier to lift. Moreover, aluminum bottle geometries allow for much easier pouring of contents. Take a look at the flat and wide opening of the steel drum in the picture. You can empty the an aluminum bottle to the last drop more efficiently.

I’ll write a little more about the advantages of our seamless aluminum bottle in my next posts.
