    Tree House (obviously)
    White Birch
    The Bucket (RI)
    Wormtown (to can more than Be Hoppy)
    Foundation (ME)

    I know a short list, but seems like it will be the norm to have canned beer. I personally enjoy the format more than any other. Anyone know more NE breweries canning. Or even non NE places?

    Here's a few more brewers that can at least a portion of their offerings -- Grey Sail, 'Gansett (RI); NEBCO, Two Roads (CT); Alchemist, Fiddlehead (VT); Berkshire Brewing Co., Night Shift (MA); Bissell Bros. (ME). I'm sure there are plenty more I'm forgetting.

    I didn't realize that Foundation is canning now. Glad to hear they're gaining momentum -- They were making tasty beers when I was up there last spring!

    Cheers

    Ipswich. Wachusett. Notch.

    Keep in mind many of the MA guys contract with either a mobile canning operation, Wachusett, or Two Roads for packaging.

    Big non-NE guys that show up here: founders, SN, boulevard, sixpoint, troegs...

    Not mentioned so far: Newburyport, Baxter, Cambridge Brewing Co (Flower Child, Remain in Light)

    It certainly isn't the novelty it used to be. Personally, I wish breweries would pick one or the other format - enough over-crowding of SKU's already in MA.

    McNeill's Brewery canned at least one batch of Dead Horse IPA at Wachusett in 2014. Not sure if they're canning regularly, however.

    Smuttynose Finestkind IPA is supposedly being canned at some point, but I don't think they have stated when.

    I wish they would can Bouncy House! Another one, which I'm drinking right now, is Peak Organic. Their Fresh Cut is so good!

    Canned Nugget Nectar seems to be much nicer than the bottled sixers I used to buy. The hops are shining quite a bit longer now.

    White Birch is in the process of installing a new canning line at this time. Should be up and running in a few weeks. We should see a variety of 6 and 4 packs as spring arrives
