The experts said flavorful, high-end beer couldn't be put in a can. The folks at
Oskar Blues Brewery in Colorado said otherwise.
They introduced canned, craft-brewed beer in 2002, and it has been a spectacular success. Their flagship beer,
Dale's Pale Ale, is a remarkably big, flavorful and well-hopped beer that will impress even the biggest bottle-only beer snobs.
It has a copper color, rich aroma and 65 Bittering Units. That's brewers' talk for "it's hoppy as hell."
