Forget Bottles, What About Cans?



or you could just keg.

I really don't think there's a feasible home option. Even a tiny used canning line can run you $50K easily. The thing is it isn't some small machine you could squeeze into your basement. It's an actual line that takes up huge rooms in a factory. If you find anything different, let me know.  smile

That's simply not true anymore.  Many micro/craft brewers are turning towards canning over bottling, including 21st Amendment, Half Acre and Ska.  It's cheaper, uses less energy, protects the beer better via no light being able to penetrate...and most importantly, whatever they do now regarding the lining is definitely not the same as a Stroh's circa the 1980s.  All of the beers I've had over the past couple of years have ZERO metallic taste to them, and I'm sure many others would agree.
