Well I believe a can of that stuff likely costs more than a bottle or two of beer.....and since I'm usually prepared and ALWAYS have chilled beer ready, I can go on with out this. But I guess in a pinch.

I think there was a Mythbusters episode where they tested a bunch of quick cool methods. If I remember correctly, the one that did the best was an ice slurry (ice and water mixed) with salt added to get the ice even colder.
