    Ok, so my family is going out to Lake Mead, NV this weekend and we need some beers. Its a lake, and so bottles are out, thus the search for cans. Also, my dad and I aren't really big fan of hops and dont want to drink dark beers on a 100+F weekend.

    So my question, any decent belgians in a can? I'm in the Santa Ana/Costa Mesa area, so I will probably hit up Hi-Time or Total Wine, just wondering if anybody has suggestions.

    Blanche de bruxelles is in cans I think. Good beer.

    Avery White Rascal will do the trick.

    Rodenbach comes in a can in Belgium but I don't think that makes it over here.

    Wittekerke is probably your best bet for strict Belgians.
    Maui Brewing La Perouse is a Belgian style Witbier that is out right now and is tasty.

    I'd be happy with a 12 pack of Fat Tire cans for a non hoppy lake fix myself.

    Marten's pilsner. Belgian pilsner, you should be able to pick up 4 packs at total wine

    While not Belgian in origin or production, 21st Amendment's Monk's Blood is a Belgian Dark Strong Ale that is available in cans, although it may not currently be in season.
