Shower beers are life changing!
The shower beer was the go-to in college. Worked until 8 and had to have a shower before I went down to the watering hole and the more beer you had at home the less you had to pay for at the bar. I'd say it was born out of necessity more than anything else.

While I appreciate the solid job of multitasking the pregame and the shower beer...you have not utilized the shower beer correctly.

I've done the shower beer after a good hunt. 15 days in the backcountry. Fly back to town. Pick up a couple cold ones on the way to the hotel. One down in the shower (a long HOT shower) and the other one while shaving and making nice for the evening.

Other tricks?

Pop some glasses in the freezer...I like a frosty glass.

That Alaskan amber is good ...along with Gordon Bierch Marzen. My favorite though is Paulaner...or the US substitutes Blue Moon or Shock top. I'm probably the only guy around that doesn't like IPA's.

You can never count out the shower beers. Hopefully I'll be having a cold one, standing over a nice Wyoming antelope this year.

Put a little salt in that slushy ice water in the cooler

+1 on the salt, and one trick is to use the taller aluminum cans (like 16oz Lites) and make sure the ice/water/salt mix doesn't cover the tops. Less likely to freeze, and you don't get the salty taste on the pop-top of a regular can.

And not at all conducive to the outdoors, but I'd be remiss not to mention that Twin Peaks restaurants spend over $100k on their tap systems so they can pour tap beer at well below freezing, with a temperature gauge on the wall (if you divert your attention to see it) and beer freezing at the top of your frosty mug.

A little trick am sure most people know. If you have warm beer and a cooler of ice, and need a beer now because the lawn doesn't mow itself. just roll or spin the beer in the ice cooler for 2-3 minute it's cold enough to drink..

Deep fried halibut for dinner here tonight. Ice-cold Yeungling pilsner in a frosted glass.

When I’m on the calls in the elk woods I always sneak a couple beers In my pack. When the shooter finally gets it done I break them out and always get a really big smile, even though they are likely warm. Sadly the mood gets pretty serious when we start breaking down the animal.

Saw on the Stone Glacier website someone packing out a bull and poppin’ a celebratory brew on one of the bulls brows sticking out from the pack and shotgunning it. My kinda person. Headed to bear camp with yeti full of cold ones.

After working all hours of the day welding, an ICE COLD Sierra Nevada Pale Ale or 805 in the shower is a game changer. I feel better now knowing that I'm not the only one leaving emptys in the shower. The right ratio of salt and ice water will get them cold real fast, so does 20 to 30 minutes in the freezer, time depends on temperature of beer. On a triple digit temperature a partially frozen beer can be quite refreshing.
