In 3-4 years you are going to have issues drinking good beer period (Because a lot of breweries are making the switch)

A good list of Breweries represented.....Stone has some excellent beers.

The Mayflower brewery has been doing some good stuff as well.

Yea, I know - its the metallic taste I can't get by.

I'll just have to pour it into my Block Island Beer glasses made by Eben Glass Works

Dennis, they've come a long way with the cans. I drink Heady Topper from the can (as instructed on it), and don't notice any metallic taste. I understand where you're coming from though. It's hard to get past the whole beer in a can thing.

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio

they are not the cans of old... all craft beer cans are lined to stop the metallic taste and the freshest beer u can get comes from a can.... no sunlight or O2 most last and taste fresher much longer...nothing wrong with pouring it in a glass for drinking
