Half Acre moving to CANS!

Here is why we’ll be moving to cans:

1. Cans allow no light into the beer. For a craft brewing company like ours that tries very hard to keep all of the natural qualities of beer intact, doesn’t pasteurize or use stabilizers, it’s important to preserve those elements. Cans offer the best way to do that. So, with Oxygen pickup in the canning process as low or lower than any other and beer never touching the can itself due to a protective lining, beer is safer in a can.

2. Cans are nearly 100% recyclable and are less than one-third the weight of a bottle, so the overall environmental footprint is much smaller.

3. Boats, beaches, bike paths, ball games, rock shows, retreats, riding skateboards, hiking, handgliding, fishing, Frisbee, on and on and on; no broken glass. Drink it, crush it, get it out of there.

So, off we go. Should we “need” to shotgun a few beers along the way, we’ll be able to do that too.
