    Revolution Rosa should be back out by that time.
    Seek a trade. It's summer in a glass.

    Hard to find/limited: Night Shift Morph (just finished one, so my opinion may be biased)

    Normal: Ten Fidy, easy.

    I second Two Hearted and Sculpin.

    Thinking a bit outside the box, with it being summer, and thinking of something that would be more approachable to the non-craft crowd, I would consider Pilsner Urquell.

    I think that's a seasonal, too.

    if you're not trying to trade for your cans there is a decent selection you can find near you. i'll reiterate that sn pale ale/torpedo is abundant and cheap. sculpin is pricey but is a great ipa. modern times is also a good pick with lots of variety. saint archer has a good white ale in cans for your non serious beer drinking attendees as well. congratulations and cheers!

    I haven't seen it mentioned yet, and maybe you are already planning on it? But I would think you might have some guests with a much less refined palate than many BA's here... some that might just want some cheap tasting american lager.

    Also you may want some kind of wheat beer, I don't know if Cisco is available in CA but you I would recommend Cisco Grey Lady as that comes in cans.

    How about The Kimmie, The Yink & The Holy Gose from Anderson Valley for something a little different.

    Plenty of great choices already, to add one that I have yet to see mentioned.

    I see the L.A. Location. Tallgrass Ethos or Nebraska Brewing IPA will go toe to toe with all the other quality brews! There are no losers here!

    Honestly this sounds like" the best or most expensive beer I've ever had in a can that has no availability where I am for a whole bunch of people coming to a "cheap down home themed " wedding where maybe 15% may be craft drinkers." Rather than an honest answer. I'd go with a pilsner or lager in a can and a pale ale and maybe a small supply of something heavier. I would definitly go with SA pale ale because its available and great beer in cans. For pils/lager I'd go with Two Roads Ol Factory if available if not Anchor Lager and probably Ten Fidy or Dales Pale Ale for the heavyier brew:slight_smile:

    Ten Fidy is the obvious choice.
    Hop Crisis and Monks Blood from 21st Amendment are great.
    Troegs is canning now too. Tough to beat a 16oz Troegenator.
