Choose your style....

That's hilarious... I forgot those things existed.

So.... anyone ever bottle in them? I'm going to give it a go next bottling session.

Yebisu beers are actually pretty tasty stuff.

We toured the Yebisu Beer Museum back in May and were pleasantly surprised by the quality of their beer. I'd purchase it again if it was available in the US.

Yebisu is the reason I qualified that statement with "mostly." My local sushi bar has it.

Getting a Sopporo at sushi bars is half the fun! The cans are awesome; super thick aluminium, I certainly wouldn't try to crush it on my forehead.

Great Canned Craft Brews:
Oskar Blues - freakin' amazing brews!
21st Amendment Brewery
Butternuts
New Belgium: I really think these taste different out of a can, in a bad way.

Yuri sandblasted some and reused them.

I actually had no idea Sapporo came in cans (man-can sized?) The sushi bars I go to have Sapporo bombers.

Also, off-topic, but strangely enough if anybody asked me what food Reno is known for I'd have to say sushi. There's an all-you-can-eat sushi joint on what seems like every friggin corner.

Til you go back to corner shop for another binge sixer, get home and crack one open to find you just took a giant slug of Castrol 10W-40.
