The Yeti thing
Posted: Sat May 27, 2017 9:24 pm
Yeti makes coolers and various drink holders. In my part of the country they are very popular and kind of a in the know fad. The ice chests they make are good and really expensive and people don't leave them in the bed of their trucks unguarded less they be stolen by fashionable thieves.
I bought a drink holder for my wife a year or so ago because she has a thing about her beer remaining ice cold long enough for her to sip it empty. I got some can beer the other day, usually I get bottles and put them in an insulated sock, but there was a special on cans and the Yeti does cans or bottles. So .. since my wife really doesn't like the holder for various reason that I don't share, I tried out the Yeti.
One thing about the Yeti is... it ain't cheap. This aluminum canister cost $25 ,although you can get them on sale on and off for less. For what I paid for it I could have gotten a case of better beer than I usually drink. But...I digress.
In any case. With a full beer it weighs in at 22 ounces. Without a beer it's about 9 ounces.
Bottom line... it keeps the beer relatively cold. The down side is the weight and that you can't tell how much you have left by lifting it. You get down toward the actual bottom and it feels like you have half a beer left. But... whatever.
