Have You Ever Seen A Beer Can Like This?

This is a beer called Alberta Genuine Draft made by Big Rock Brewing. The beer itself is not very good but the can is very cool.

I feel like I would dribble that everywhere...

It's just like drinking from a glass

That was a craft beer thing six or seven years ago. First one I had was a Helles Golden Lager. The idea was giving the drinker a better ability to smell what they were drinking.

We are about a decade behind in this province so it's about time we got this cool new technology

 

[BROBS]

we have these things we use here called glasses or steins

Nope. Looks like you could cut your lip on the inner rim though.?

Hey! I like that!

If LaBatt Blue came in cans like that, I’d put them away too fast, though.

Looks like it was made for a serious beer drinker

There was a beer years ago that had that but I cannot recall the name....

I’ve seen them on some craft beers a handful of times. Kinda “hey, neat” the first time you have one. I believe it had something to do with less glugging when you drink/pour, and being able to see the beer. Something feels not correct about the openness of the can, can’t quite put my finger on it. Still kinda cool though, clever.

There's a couple breweries in the USA that have cans with tops like that, but it hasn't caught on. I thought there was even one design that could be either regular opening or full opening depending on which way the tab was rotated. Using a "topless can opener" is a similar idea that is trying to become popular with two competing options so far:

• Draft Top
• Go Swing

You know you have a problem when the regular sized hole is not fast enough! ?

itd be quick to pound a few down.?

I'd also be in trouble if Blue came in cans like this

 

[canucklehead]

I have drank a few (cases) of those. I like them???

Pork and beans cans. ?

Do you think ... maybe it's pregnant? If you put it in the pantry or under the bar for a few months, it might have a little six pack.
