Us Australian's are notorious for wanting (sorry, needing) our beers to be ice cold - and for good reason. With summers effortlessly reaching a scorching 40, keeping your golden nectar cool is a must for optimal enjoyment. We think the idea of sitting back, beer in hand with a cooler by your side full of frosty beers is close to perfection. So, to help us find that perfect cooler, we reached out to our mates at Tentworld. Tentworld are the experts in all things camping & the outdoors. We asked them to recommend the best ways to keep your beers cold - whether it's on the back deck with friends, on your boat, or out on a camping trip. We reckon with these 5 recommendations, you’ll be set for any occasion or lifestyle. 

Here are our top choices: 

What: Yeti Roadie 24, $299, Tentworld

Best for: Durability

Why you should buy it: The Yeti Roadie 24 comes in 4 colours and has the most comfortable carry-handle that we've encountered on any icebox. It holds 18 frosty beers along with a generous 11kgs of ice, ensuring your first and last beers are icy cold. Its slim design means it’ll slide behind the front seat of the car, giving you quick access to ice-cold drinks no matter how long the journey. It is also tall enough to fit a nice bottle of wine or soft drinks. Bonus points go to the Yeti Roadie 24 Cushion, which fits snugly on the roof of your Roadie 24 Hard Cooler - if you ask us, it’s great for taking a load off and having a think (or drink!).

What: Dometic Cool-Ice 13L Rotomoulded Icebox $79, Tentworld

Best For: Indestructibility

Why you should buy it: High outside temperatures, uneven terrain, dust and mud? Well, we are in Australia so there’s a high chance of all three. Luckily, the “indestructible” Domestic ice boxes will take this in their stride. This award-winning icebox is equipped with extremely effective insulation, and once the cool packs have been placed inside they will keep your beer, meat and everything in between fresh. The height is perfect for taller bottles, and the addition of a strap makes it all the more portable. Strong and lightweight, you’d be hard-pressed to find a better all-rounder.
