$8.49/6pk for Beer in a Can?

Post by bravedave »

"Dale's Pale Ale"

Great beer in a can. Could be the next big thing?

I'm not much of a beer connasewer (tee hee) but hubby would probably try it, even at that price, as he is quite fond of pale ale for something different sometimes.

I've heard good things about that brew.

Dale's Pale Ale is in the cooler at my favorite liquor store, but I've never tried it or even looked at the price.

In the interest of research, I'll pick some up next time I'm at Chambers.

$8.49!!!

Where do I sign up. In Canada its $11 minimum for a six pack. That's just the national brands. The micro or premium costs more than that.

BeachBumm- Yeungling is even cheaper by the case at Sam's Club. That's what I buy for parties.
I can't imagine a beer in a can not having that can taste but I'd try it once.

Generally, I'd prefer my beer in bottles, but there are places where bottles are not allowed, so to be able get good beer in a can would be a welcome change.

I prefer bottle beer, but I've never tried it so I'd give it a whirl.

Only if I had to.
If you want an experience, go to a Jimmy Buffett concert.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

Life is short, live long!!

I'd rather be a wiseass than a dumbass.

The same brewery also makes a great Scotish Ale called "Old Chub" which they can as well.
