No they don't melt in a camp fire. Beer cans are typically aluminum which has a melting point around 1200 degrees fahrenheit. A typical campfire can reach temps around 900 degrees fahrenheit.

Aluminium can melt in a wood fire but more commonly the metal oxidises instead. Steel cans won't melt in such a fire, but they oxidise heavily.

About maybe 5 minutes tops, if the fire is really hot. You can melt cans instead of hauling them.

It may melt, but chances are it will leave a shriveled and slaggy mess for someone else to clean up. I have, however, seen really thin cans disappear in a specially hot fire.
