I saw it at the grocery store and decided to give it a whirl. I usually do not like to "fruit the beer" as it were, but this is nice. The taste is smooth with a hint of orange, and the blackberry aftertaste is subtle and not overwhelming. Now, this is definitely a "treat" beer and not one I could consume regularly. It does, however, lend itself to be a "beer between beers". All in all, very enjoyable. I am enjoying one as I type. I saw it at the grocery store and decided to give it a whirl.

Long Trail's heat recovery system is green and saves that company lots of cash in fuel costs. Their 12-pack box redesign is great for the environment AND saves them huge of material costs.

Most of the craft beers in a can have been tasty. Maybe someday, we can get a 30 rack of dales pale ale. That would be a very amazing day.

Is Coors still brewed in the rockies? Nope. Is Sam Adams brewed in Boston? Nope. It's a catch 22. If you change the name of your brewery, you lose brand recognition. If you don't change, consumers might be confused about your product. I think the brand recognition is more important, so I agree with their decision to keep the name the same.

And I love all the craft beer coming out in cans. It really challenges the notion of how craft brewers can serve or deliver their product.
