New Canned Beer of Choices for Coachella 2012

[frizzlefry]

I don't understand the love for OG Lokos, the caffeine actually took away from my inebriation, now chugging one of those babies almost gives me a good buzz

[Neighborhood Creep]

They're disgusting

[fatbastard]

I normally don’t drink while on the polo fields but anything that’s been sitting in ice for the night would be awfully tempting.

Cans are a great idea for the festival. Better than plastic cups and its the best way to sell beer (according to breweries). It keeps the light from contaminating the product. Anyways glad beer is a big deal again. Please check out a non profit charity I started: ales4autism.org

had Blue Moon cans while camping and freezing this past weekend and it was kinda arse. Too sweet. Thumbs down.

Still on the Modelo or PBR train.

I get Oskar Blues and Maui cans here in AZ, but I've never seen some of the craft can beers mentioned already in this thread. Maybe we should all bring regional craft cans from our respective areas and have beer trading meet ups in the campgrounds a few times each day.

[303dubbin]

oh man glorious!
newcastle in cans is alright as well.
oskar blues, avery(not sure if they are big enough yet but oh so delicious)

[Geno_g]

Sierra in cans would be great but I haven't seen it yet...

You should try it on a giant polo field when it's hot as shit out. Quite the difference.

[303dubbin]

i would get sunshine over blue moon any day of the week

[Gribbz]

There are a ton of beers I would take over Blue Moon.

[303dubbin]

i mean me too but i was just talking about if you were looking for a wheat beer specifically. white rascal from avery above both of those two!

[Gribbz]

I know, I've just never seen Sunshine in cans.

Head over to Papago; they have a lot from San Tan brewery and Prescott Brewing in cans. So does Total Wine.

I imagine. Blue Moon is okay and I'll have it on occasion in draft or bottle form, but just wasn't feeling the can while sitting/standing as close as possible to the fire to stay warm. My brother had requested em...he also drinks Newcastle (gag).

Blue Moon tastes like laundry detergent. Getting through a case of those sorta felt like this:

Thought i would share the place we bought our cans from last year..

I was at Papago on Tuesday, and they have a great selection. I wish Prescott canned the Achocolypse Porter.

Sierra Nevada in cans?!?!? Definitely getting this for Coachella. Is this going to be widely available?

[mmsk123]

I believe they just started making it, so hopefully by April it you'll be able to find it easily if you look around a bit.

Edit: Just did a quick search: "We’re expecting a March release of both Torpedo and Pale Ale cans." Perfect.

[Neighborhood Creep]

Bell's are about to start canning.

I would be a mess if Two Hearted was in a can by then

[Premium Roast]

those Sierras look nice. Stellas too.

We'll be bringing out some Sixpoint cans from Brooklyn (16oz!) and New England Brewing Co. Cans. Gotta support my locals!

[OldTownBob]

I bet the hipsters will love these 16oz tall boys...
