    First off...aluminum cans?

    Second, confusing that in some locations I read 4-packs, others 6-packs...even on OBs communications. Can anyone confirm?

    Third, originally this was being released to stores on the 8th. Now it looks like it's available RIGHT NOW and only at The Tasty Weasel. Can anyone confirm if this will hit shelves?

    I thought they were debuting it at the CBC first?

    Yeah, I already spoke with Shikes. Looking for confirmation, especially if it hits shelves.

    Anyone picked some up from the Tasty Weasel yet? Tried it? Worth a one hour drive each way?

    Not my style either, but I can handle it. Intrigued because it's a collab between two solid breweries. Might have to try it on tap first! Maybe a good warm day beer.

    Not a favorite style but I can enjoy a Belgian Pale Ale done right and I am in the mood for one as I type. Too bad I had no desire t make the drive up to the Tasty Weasel to grab some given its finals weekend.

    I'm confused, they're testing an experiment on a resealable container. Then say, "Melis recommends that people pour the 8 percent ABV beer into a glass and let it breathe.."

    I don't think resealable and drinking from a glass are mutually exclusive. Gives you an option to drink some now and later. Or just to drink from the can.

    I think they're having fun with the new containers, obviously not craft brew friendly!

    Just got back from the weasel. 7/can to drink there. 17/4 pack. Not bad at all. Medium bodied belgian ale.

    No, I meant the beet is not bad at all.
