I picked up a 12 pack of summer ale at savemore beverage on my way home. The guy there was telling me about today being the first time ever Sam Adams released Cans. I was surprised cuz they were always about the Dark brown bottles and the high sided boxes to protect it from sunlight. But I guess a can does just as good. I also got myself a bottle of Dog Fish Head TA Henket ---

Look at it this way, go to any brewery, all beer is brewed in metal containers, going from that to a packaging can shouldn’t change the taste just like it shouldn’t change in a bottle. It’s the same with the idea that beer on tap always tastes better. ---

Redds is a Miller/Coors label that is essentially a wine cooler/malt beverage disguised as a beer. I think it’s meant to compete with Mike’s Hard and Twisted Tea type beverages. Having me a Sierra Nevada Torpedo right now. Good as always.
