On January 22, 1959, the Coors Company, based out of Golden, Colorado started packaging their beers in aluminium cans for consumers.</p> <p>Tin cans had been in use since as early as the 1930s. &nbsp;Coors figured out that aluminium was better as the cans chill faster efficiently because of their thin and light construction. Aluminium beer cans also changed the way beer was transported for consumption.</p> <p>{googleAdsense}</p> <p>The aluminium beer cans of the Coors Company were printed with an iconic image of Wilson peak, located in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado. Wilson Peak is situated close to Telluride in San Miguel County.</p> <p>The information is telecast on a local&nbsp;Channel during the&nbsp;History Colorado programme that provides the viewers with a historical look at moments and facts that are "Unique 2 Colorado".</p>
