    saw this on TG twitter this morning...seems as if they are going to put Sue in 16 oz cans. This excites me...big time

    Saw this too, this is awesome. Hopefully they do the rest in cans too.

    That would be great. They just tweeted that canning will begin mid summer. Love it

    Now if only they could start distributing to MN so I didn't have to drive to Hudson...

    Awesome news. I hope we get a reasonable price point, like no more than $10 for a 4-pack. That would be fantastic.

    This is great. TG is one of my favorite breweries but I tend to only drink their beers at home or on draft as bringing bombers to certain social gatherings is usually a pain. The thought of drinking Sue or Zeelander cans at a Brewers tailgate, fishing, or in the stands at a race makes me very happy.

    $7 for 22 OZ....highly doubt it will be any cheaper with cans.

    I don't think they will be selling 4-packs for $19.99

    Well I'm with ya - hate those bomber prices! Just worried since they will be 16 oz cans.

    I would imagine a price similar to Surly sine they're now both competing in Iowa - $10.99 - 12.99/4 pack?

    I'd pay that for sure. If it gets into Abrasive territory ($14.99 -17.99/4pk) then I think it's easier to pass up.

    If it gets into abrasive territory, I'd still pick it up (though less frequently) since Sue and Abrasive are not even close to being in the same league. And yes, I know they are different styles. Still not even close.

    Until New Glarus gets distributed in Minnesota I'll always have a reason to visit Nova

    I could pound (literally) Sue...all day, in a boat.

    I would love Sue pounders!

    I agree. I'll drink a Sue over an Abrasive any day of the week.:grinning:

    Oh yeah I can see how my post was ambiguous. I meant that Sue blows Abrasive out of the water. I would pick Sue up any day of the week as well, even if it is priced close to Abrasive (I just hope it's priced cheaper)
