Beer cozy science!

Maybe these should be in the DIY forum?

Really, you expect me to believe anyone who drinks PBR knows where to buy bagels?

Crap beer or not it shows some devotion to the big outdoor summer drinking problem of temperature and insects. I just light up a charcoal BBQ - the occasional bit of smoke keeps the flies away, slip an ice cube into the higher ABV ciders (dehydration is a killer eh?) or shield the beer out of direct sunlight and drink it quicker. Just my own personal favorites but not scientific. Maybe I need to more further south and try more experimentation.......
