    Cannonball’s canning line is up and running as of yesterday. They started with 16oz 4pks of Mindbender (WC IPA).
    My understanding is that they’ll be canning their core beers with variable availability to purchase only at the brewery.

    Looks like they're using Wild Goose.

    That's awesome. Hit them up once when we lived in Denver. Always loved their beers. Had a bunch of them on tap at Falling Rock too.

    Apparently they blew through the first round of cans quickly, but more are coming. I think this kicks major ass. I'm a huge fan and I never see Cannonball taps anywhere on this half of town. They just straight-up don't seem to send anything east of I25 anymore. With these cans, I'm at least motivated to head to Golden so I can bring a crate of goodies home.

    They only have Mindbender so far. Maybe it'll be the only beer (occasionally) until they get the artwork for their other beers

    Probably the best beer news I’ve heard in a while. Hope it’s not too difficult to get as they roll it out. Always love to take a trip up to Golden.

    I didn't think they sent anything outside the brewery. Maybe a one-off here or there? This seems like a philosophical shift for them. (I considered them like Comrade - although Comrade sends kegs out)

    At least when they first opened you could get their stuff at some of the multi-tap places. I can't recall which one(s), but that was my main exposure to them. At the time that would have been Stapleton, Peak to Peak, the Crafty Fox, Falling Rock, WoB, and such...and I just realized that literally all of those places are now closed. The only thing I've seen lately was at the B&B anniversary 2 years ago. They had a couple kegs of Project Alpha.
