    Up that way, I've really been liking Grey Sail's Flying Genny as a hot summer, boat, outdoor beer in a can.

    Went with Bitter American, Flying Genny, and Newburyport Pale and Green Head. Should be a good week.

    Nice hustle. Was surprised no one mentioned Greenhead from Newburyport. I've only had a sixer so far, but really enjoyed it and it fits your specifications. Have a good vacation.

    I may be in the minority here, but Harpoon UFO White in a can is so incredibly refreshing on a hit summer day. Plus, chicks dig it too

    Actually been loving the earlier recommendation of Hop Notch from Uinta. Drank almost a case of it down on Cape Cod last week and never once grew tired of it.

    I'll second that. Never had it from the can but most of Harpoon's offerings are pretty decent. Only ever had one bottle of the UFO White but I remember it being tasty and refreshing.

    All Day is nothing special. Buy local Wachusett Light IPA is every where and affordable $13.99 for 12

    Also maybe Larry will hit shelves early

    I wound up going local for the most part. The Newburyport Pale Ale and Green Head IPA were pretty good. The Flying Jenny was VERY good. The only non-local (Bitter American) I got was by far my least favorite. Wachusett Light is on my radar though. I have a golf tourney next week, so I'll probably be picking some up.

    Nothing like golfing with your buddies and drinking purple cans.
