There seems to be a movement of craft beer in cans. Not sure what that's about, but I tried a couple. While it felt less classy, I was not disappointed. I wonder what the economic/ecologic advantages are (or disadvantages?) More importantly, check out this cute cow!
1) Moo Thunder Stout: Butternuts Beer and Ale hails from NY at what was once a dairy farm. I highly recommend you check out their website; it's quite entertaining. The Moo Thunder Stout pays tribute to their dairy farm past. It pours black as night, with 1 finger of brown head. It smells very sweet - marshmallow, malts, coffee with sugar. It tastes roasty, with a sweet edge of caramel and coffee. It feels creamy. It's good! A little too intense to drink a whole lot of, but fun.

2) Mama's Little Yella Pils: From the Oskar Blues Brewery in Colorado. They also make a Ten Fidy, something I have only read about, but sounds delicious. They modestly describe it as, "...the beer equivalent of decadently rich milkshake made with malted-milk balls and Heaven’s best chocolate ice cream." Ooooh man! Another day, hopefully. Now back to the Pilsner.
