    Will I get any benefit to cellaring these since they are cans and not bottles? I was told cans do not age like bottles due to not having enough headspace.

    Rather than an issue with cans vs the bottles I think that ba Narwhal, like many ba beers, doesn't really benefit from further aging.

    SN is a skilled brewer and they aren't forcing ba Narwhal out when it's too boozy or something. In my experience is best fresh and as it ages it just gets more muted.

    Plus, they release it regularly throughout the year so there's no reason to hold onto it. It's always on the shelf
