Our friends at Oskar Blues pioneered great beer in a can and, as mutual members of the canned craft club, this partnership was a perfect fit. CANfusion is a coming together—a fusion, if you will—of flavors from across the spectrum of brewing: spicy rye, tangy wheat and a bright citrusy hop aroma.

Oskar Blues is the granddaddy of canned craft beer. Like us, they have a fun-loving passion for the outdoors and bikes. It was a natural fit for them to adopt cans as a portable, durable way to tote their favorite beer on the trail, and in the process they paved the way for all other craft brewers to follow.

Reviewed from (very long-standing) notes. Consumed in late 2014. Poured from a 12 oz. can into a Fat Head's pint glass.

A: A mildly hazy bright copper, with average visible carbonation and a thin white head that fades quickly.

S: Lightly toasted bready malts and light resinous hops.

T: Biscuity malts and a mild rye spiciness up front. Resinous pine, citrus pith and grassy hops swell up on the back end and linger with a significant bitterness in the hang.

M: Average heft to the body, and a good amount of visible carbonation. The alcohol presence is well-hidden for the listed ABV.

O: Well, it's not at all what I expect in a bock beer. Nor anything that would have made me call it a lager at all. But it's a nicely hoppy, easy to drink beer that I enjoyed. Ratings are given as to my preference for a beer in general. I'd estimate ratings to style to be significantly lower.

Canned 6/3/14; drank 7/14/14 @ the Yarchives.

Poured from the can into a glass.

Clear orange/red hue.

Big cream-colored head; strong lace.

Mild citrus, wheat & fresh soap nose. Refreshing!

Medium thin mouthfeel.

Mild mango & fresh wheat flavor, with a mild hop bite flavor. So yes, "mild", but refreshing & easy to drink without being boring. Good.

On tap at PreFunk. Dark golden, creamy head, some rye sourness added to the Bock malts. Hints of a sour ale, very interesting. Complex, and delicious.
