Food Fights: The Biggest Culinary Scandals Of 2011
Can your beer get too cold? Coors Light wants to make sure there is absolutely no doubt that their beer is the coldest available with the launch of Coors Light Super Cold Draft. If you are looking for it at your local pub, rather than using a traditional beer tap, Coors has developed their own counter-top 'glacier tap' that sits independently from the other brews. The handle on the glacier tap forms a layer of ice as the beer is poured, resulting in the beer being an average of 5 to 10 degrees cooler than a typical draft beer. If it is that cold you probably can't taste it anyways, but maybe that is the point.
Coors Light has also developed a cold-activaton bottle, where part of the label turns blue when the ideal serving temperature has been reached. Now really - though I kind of like the glacier tap idea, is it honestly that difficult to figure out when a bottle of beer is cold enough to drink?

Sound like the ONLY way to drink a Coors. *blech*
That stuff is nasty. Give me a real beer anyday!

Like we used to say about Thunderbird and Night Train (in your raspiest wino voice): How's it sold? Nice and cold!

The whole extra cold thing, I'm guessing, may be because dorms usually don't have a cold place to stash beer. When you're sitting in your room drinking a warm beer, I bet the promos look hella good, and make college students want to flock to bar to spend their ramen money on extra cold faux-lager.

The only time a beer is to cold is if it is frozen. Personally Fultoun County seems to LOOOOVE Coors Light and we are proud.
