Canned beers are finding themselves a niche in the craft beer world for a variety of reasons - cans are cheaper to produce, easier to recycle, better for the environment, and cheaper to ship (less fuel). Not to mention, zero light can reach beer in a can. Plus, with new water-based liners, aluminum will never touch beer. All that said, Oskar Blues in Colorado deals almost exclusively in canned beer, and Dale's Pale Ale constantly tops the charts - not for best canned pale ale, but for best pale ale, period. We love this beer, and with it being fall and tailgating season, put down the cheap canned beer and pick up some craft-brewed canned beer! Dale's Pale Ale = winner, in every way.
