Ice around cans of beer works well, but in the beer?  No!

Umm, we put ice in the beer here in Africa cause no matter how cold a 355 mL bottle of beer is here when you get it.. by the time you get half done you need to pour it in a glass with two or three rocks to get it cold again to stomach. Of course after 8 or so you drink whats in front of you, lol.

  The fastest way actually to get a brewski cold is to use ice with water surrounding the beer.. more surface area and you get cold beer within 25 minutes colder than if you had it in a fridge.. and with the water and melting ice moving the Heat CoEfficient from the warm cans of beer.. they will get really close to freezing.. without freezing. Er.. from what I remember form Thermodynamics anyhow, thats about what I remember from that course.

And to get it even colder, add salt to the water. The only problem with that is you can not use the ice in your drinks.

I sometimes add salt to my beer. Not much, just a couple of shakes.  I like the taste and it also creates a thick head.
