Family belongs to a swim club that the 2016 season starts this weekend. Have a bit of a tradition going that started last year, on Friday nights about 8-10 families who are all members get together, we grill various things (the club has BBQ pits) the adults hang out while the kids play, etc.

Being a swim club the club has an icon-clad ban of glass. We can't even bring in glass pickle and salsa jars, need to transfer it to another container before we get there.

Last year my beer game on Friday nights was mainly brews from Abita, NOLA, and Tin Roof, as they have multiple options in cans.

Looking to step up my game this year. What are some good beers in cans that I can find in New Orleans? I generally roll towards IPAs but a number of the other guys are more blonde and pilsner drinkers.

A growler fill is also an option as most Fridays I can swing by 504 Reserve on the way home as it is near my office.

Thanks in advance!

Great Raft has their three main beers in cans and I am pretty sure they are all fairly available in NO. Southern Drawl, Commotion and Reasonably Corrupt. Commotion is my go-to.

Oscar Blues has several IPAs that are available in BR. I have to think that NO has them also.

Anything by Oskar Blues would be a good option. I've seen Bell's Two Hearted Ale in cans. Also, there's always crowlers.

Wow, thanks everyone. Maybe I'll start this weekend with some Great Raft and work from there. This list should last me a while. Thanks again!
