Cottrell canned at one point. Perhaps they stopped?

Edit: looks like they don’t can their own brew anymore. Maybe Narragansett or they got rid of it altogether. The Chesters Beer in that link appears to be no longer made.

Just an update for you: Cottrell Brewing in Connecticut does not can their beer. They only bottle it.

I didn’t notice this the other day, but Pete’s Place and Krebs/Choc Beer are the same people. I believe Pete’s Place is the restaurant and Krebs/Choc is the beer. See the link for more info.

Very interesting information regarding the craft beer in a can. We are in the process of introducing a craft Mexican beer into the USA. I have a couple of questions: Why can?? what are the advantages versus bottles. What companies do you recommend to buy the cans from and the equipment to do the canning???
Thank you, Jose

Ignore my comment, I didn’t think to look for “The” Brewer’s Art.

Brewer’s Art in Baltimore is about to release their canned Resurrection in the next week or so.

Hey – just wanted to let you know that Rochester Mills is actually in Rochester, MI not Rochester NY.

By: tom

tom — Wed, 26 May 2010 18:36:46 +0000

this is really interesting, but I want to know is which of these breweries are using recycled aluminum?

This is something that would compel me to purchase one over another, but it’s rarely made available.

M!LLKING it Productions is indeed Scott King from the defunct King Brewing Company. The M!LL part of the name comes from Rochester Mills Brewing Company, based in Rochester, Michigan, not New York as stated on your list. Because RMBC is a brewpub, they created Millking It to release their beers into distribution, beginning with their IPA in 16oz. cans. Ann Arbor-based Rave Associates will be their distributor for southeastern Michigan, including Detroit and northern suburbs. We also sell Keweenaw Brewing Company beers, exclusively packaged in cans.
