Two Hearted Ale is all cans now.


We get it in bottles and cans here.

What sucks is now all my favorite beers are moving from bottles to cans. There’s a difference.


I was ready to have a convo with you about beer but I can’t take anyone seriously that still has this antiquated view about bottles vs cans.

If you can’t tell the difference then I’m not really interested in your opinion. I’ve tested it recently on the off chance that I might have been wrong. I wasn’t wrong. There is a noticeable difference. I wish there wasn’t. My desired outcome of the test was that there would be no difference. That would’ve made life easier.

Most any beer industry professional or beer “expert” whatever you want to call them will tell you that the “beer is better from a bottle” belief is outdated and a myth. It’s all psychological. There have also been studies to prove that this is all in peoples heads.

If you want to talk quality, cans are better than bottles in a handful of different ways. This is fact.

LOL. Oh really? Ya think? Like they’re totally objective and unbiased. I trust my senses. Maybe you have a tin palate. I don’t. There’s a difference. Find a high end bourbon sold in a can then get back to me. JFC.

Why would a brewer who makes beer be biased towards a can or a bottle of their beer?

FYI, I used to be a brewer for a fairly large brewery. With advances in tech now, there’s really no difference in taste. And like I said, quality wise, cans are better in keeping light out and also better from presenting air into a sealed container. This is scientific fact.

I’m not sure what else to tell you.

I have an an almost decade old bottle of Three Floyds Dark Lord.

At this point, I'm almost scared to open it.

Should have just drank it around the time I got it instead of saving it for... something.


I watched a wine seminar years ago.
Besides describing wines

His main emphasis was “drink the wine!”
“Drink the wine” stop saving it.

I think this holds true for most everything

I'm the opposite I love cans and love seeing the expansion of great can options over the last few years.
