- Have a freezer specifically for beer in the home (kept at -2 to -3 celsius).

- Beer rarely comes in liter bottles (compared to neighboring countries at least), usually in cans of 330 to 500 ml. This minimizes the amount of beer you take out of the freezer at once.

- Once out of the freezer, the container is put in an insulating sleeve (this is very, very common).

- Several people are served at the same time from the same small container, into small drinking glasses such as the one shown in the picture. Drinking straight from the can is also common, but remember, cans have insulating sleeves.

All of these strategies ensures that the time that the beer has spent warming up before you drink it is minimized, without you having to worry too much about it (besides having to go many times to the freezer to fetch a new one, which is why the beer freezer is usually very close to the social area).

Brazilian beer is usually very weak (similar to American light beer, maybe even more so), and if drunk anything but very, very cold it's just disgusting. Brazilians will not accept beer that is not ice cold, unless the situation is really desperate.
