    You are limited to the only ones in Australia. Mountain Goat Fancy Pants and the range from the Australian Brewery.

    Six String should be canning by now, but i haven't spotted any around.

    Coopers Dr Tim's is canned. Plus James Squire Golden Ale is available on Qantas flights.

    I'd forgotten about that. The Pale Ale is a very worthy number.

    As well as Mountain Goat Summer Ale. I'm a bit of a fan, but opinions from beer geeks seem to range considerably.

    It's not bad. All the better when served in a VB stubby holder as done at one of the better restaurants in Canberra.

    For what its worth, I actually think PBR is pretty good if you need a canned beer when fishing/camping/ thirsty.
    But in the company of a small block at 9500 rpm and some c&w in the background, it becomes a cultural experience....

    I think you mean PBR... best served with fixed gear bikes and a side of hipsters with neckbeards, tight jeans, and ironical t-shirts tucked under a vintage chambray

    Mountain Goat Fancy Pants for me, much prefer it to their summer ale.

    Liked for the user name. Welcome to the forum.

    And yes, Fancy Pants is a very nice beer.

    Six String have now started getting cans out there. Golden Ale, Dark Red IPA, Hefeweizen & Pale Ale.

    Fancy Pants is pretty damn tasty. I heard Mornington tweaked the Pale recipe when they started canning, worth picking up a pack?

    I was at the release party for canned Fancy Pants and it was great fresh, it gets my vote for what its worth.

    I believe its worth it - can't wait for the IPA to get canned though....

    Fancy pants is real good, if for no other reason it slightly resembles a can of coke, so you can have one on the train after work.

    Had the Six String Red IPA yesterday. Infinitely smashable and the whole range is well priced.
    I wish everything was in cans.

    I'd probably go with Fancy Pants too
