An aluminum can wherein, when the light reflected by the outer surface of the body portion of the aluminum can is evaluated based on the LCH method by using a multi-angle spectral colorimeter, the aluminum can features a ratio C15h/C15w of 0.6 to 1.4, the ratio C15h/C15w being that of a saturation value C15h of the light reflected at 15 degrees in the direction of height and a saturation value C15w of the light reflected at an angle 15 of degrees in the circumferential direction based on the light regularly reflected from the light that is incident at 45 degrees in the direction of height and in the circumferential direction.
