They just posted on their facebook that they bought a new canning line and are planning to be canning Edward, Abner and Ephraim. This exciting, however it's April first so I don't know what to believe on the interweb anymore.

So much for having an original idea: http://t.co/urbLUn5b Also I remember last year Allagash announcing Coolship Max, a canned tropical fruit flavored energy drink/coolship product as a direct competitor for the extremely popular Four Loko.
