Re: BAWLS in Cans

Am I the only person who can taste a noticeable difference in the exact same beverages (from the same bottling plant nonetheless) in aluminum cans versus plastic or glass bottles. For me I always seem to think that sodas or energy drinks - especially Mountain Dew - almost always taste better from plastic bottles. There is always like a "hard tap water"-like taste to beverages from cans... :-/

Bottles (whether plastic or glass) are always better tasting, so I'll stick to Bawls in glass bottles.

Is this a sign of Mountain Dew addiction, when you can tell differences like this? It's like being a Dew Connoisseur. "Why yes, this is a vintage 2006 Dew, from the Ayer, Massachusetts bottling plant. And that slight after-taste is a definitive sign of aluminum cans, and quite possibly a tad bit too much citric acid... "

Seconded. Although, when we get the cans in our market, I'll be sure to check them out for arguments sake.

Re: BAWLS in Cans

Both my mom and I notice this taste too. But we prefer cans. I just look better with a can of dew then a bottle of dew. But I like to drink the orange dew out of a bottle b/c orange is my favorite color and I can see more orange.

Re: BAWLS in Cans

Ooh, I was going to buy another case of Bawls soon, but maybe I'll wait until 7-11 or CompUSA stocks the cans...

I understand exactly what you're saying. Drinks in glass are always better. For a simple comparison for the doubters out there, acquire a glass IBC cream soda, and then find any brand of canned cream soda. Sample each, and you'll find that the one from glass tastes much better. Personally, I have no idea why this happens, but it does...

And the Bawl's in cans is still friggin awesome.

I keep all of my blue bottles from any BAWLS I ever drink, simply cause they're freaking awesome. Not sure I could really care for any cans.

I have two cases in my basement as well, and I really have no idea what I'm going to do with them. I keep pushing to throw them away, but my brother won't budge on the issue.
