Are the 4-packs of Torpedo going to be 16 oz. cans?
yes they will be
I wonder if this is the first “can conditioned” beer. As apposed to bottle conditioned. From what I understand, the beer only gains around 1/2 of its carbonation from the re-fermentation in the can/bottle.
New Belgium’s Fat Tire was the first “can conditioned” beer produced in the US. It’s a fantastic way to drink Fat Tire.
