The advantages of the can are many.They’re greener than bottles: lighter tocarry, both empty and full, quicker to chilland you can transport more in the samespace. They don’t break as easily andwhen they do, they’re not dangerous –which makes them perfect for the beach,boat and arena. That’s why you’ll find agrowing array of craft cans at beer bars,restaurants and outdoor drinking venues.Portable and packable, backpackers findthem lighter to pack in and much lessbulky to pack out; a quick stomp on anempty can flattens it nice and quick. And,aluminum gets colder more quickly andchills beer faster than bottles.Worried about quality? Don’t be! Thecans are lined with a thin film of an inert,water-based resin, so the only “metaltaste” you’re going to get is if you lick theopen hole as you drink the beer from thecan. The way the canning process worksleads to less air in the package; air is oneof the worst enemies of beer freshness.Even better, cans are skunk-proof! Skunkinessin beer is caused by one thing – light– and the can is 100% proof against that,more than brown, blue or ruby-coloredglass bottles.As if those are not good enough reasonsto bring cans with you on your summeradventures, they are also super recyclableand environmentally friendly. Cans arehere to stay and we couldn’t be happier!15
