    I saw a stack of 12-pack/12 ounce cans of Torpedo this evening at my local bottle shop. The manager said that it's the first time they've ever had them. Previously I've only ever seen the cans in 4-packs of 16 ouncers. I did a quick search and couldn't find any mention of this. All the old threads only refer to the 4-packs of pints. I know the standard Pale Ale has been available this way (and recently Nooner) but I've never known Torpedo to be available in this configuration. I was just curious if it was something new?

    Anyway, I'm thrilled for this option. I happen to prefer cans but I also prefer 12 oz to 16 oz. The great thing about SN is that they're making everyone happy.

    I haven't seen this in NJ, but if they make it this way I will be sure to pick some up.

    I've been drinking it in cans for several years. Granted most of those times I bought cans while I was on hiking trips and I cannot recall if I have seen cans in bumfuck Indiana before.

    We have it in cans, I just can't remember if it's 12 or 16 ounces

    We've been making 12-ouncers for about 6 months. We started them out in a few select markets and they're seeing a wider release across the country now. I for one, am stoked about them. 16-ounces is fun if you're having one, but I like to have more than one!
