What's your favorite canned beer?

Thu Jul 01, 2010 12:33 pm

Hey BN'ers. Getting ready to go to the beach for some R&R on Saturday and was wondering everyone's opinions on their favorite beer in cans, excluding BMC of course. Would like to get a good variety to take down on the beach with me. I have had and love all of the Oskar Blue's beers, and have had 21st Amendment's Watermelon Wheat, which I am not a fan of. I have also had Caldera IPA (?), I think. What else do ya'll recommend? I am on the east coast, but have pretty decent access to most beers.
Primary: Surley Bender
2ndary: ESB and Black Forest Stout (which has formed a pellicle, guess I'll ride it out)
On Tap:
Evin Twin
Belgian Stout
In Bottles:
Tasty's APA
Black IPA
Bourbon Barrel Aged RIS

newcastle out of the can is wonderful...but my favorite beer out of the can might have to be Brooklyn Lager, or Ska Brewing ESB Special Ale

21A IPA is my current favorite.
(I'm not a fan of the WW either.)

Well, so far I've already gotten 21st Ammendment IPA and Brooklyn Lager, so I guess I'm on the right track. :jnj

Oskar Blues, for sure. I must say that on the golf course, a can of Shiner Bock beats the bejeebus out of BMC. I've only had canned 21A beer a couple of times, so I'm no help there. New Belgium cans Fat Tire, too.

Drinking fat tire cans and man, they are good! I also really enjoy Sly Fox Pike(land?)'s Pilsner. Hoppy and dry, great for watching some music at a summer festival!
