If this was worn, how would thermodynamics factor into this?
Would the beer cool you down to the extent of hypothermia? If the cheap lager is say, 2°C?
For ease, the ambient temperature is 21°C
What’s a body’s skin temp? 14°C or so?

An adult generates about 100watts of heat. Assuming 5l of beer, heating it up from 2 to 21 degrees would require 110wh of energy. So I don’t think you’d suffer hypothermia, just be pretty cold.
BTW race drivers use chill vests and they don’t have a huge effect temperature wise.
The vests can have a strong effect, but aren’t those using a cooler and a pump to have continuous flow?
I’ve used similar devices and on full flow they will cool your ass down, pronto. I’ve had to turn the pump down to it’s lowest setting.
Of course that’s using ice in the cooler, which I assume race drivers have.
