Cans are for men. I can take a bite out of a beer can, I dont want to bite a bottle.
Ever try crushing a bottle on your forehead? It hurts...

I'd get a loan. With investors like us on this forum, all your profits would go down the drain ( or more to the point, down the throat ).

Most of the people were interviewed there.

Just kidding...

Maybe "we" have a multiple personality disorder...let me ask myself...we all agree, "yes"
How well do you thing the Amarillo farmer has his field guarded?

That kind of shoots a hole in the convenience theory. Now you'd have to buy beer in cans and take glasses with you.
I already do this anyways. I don't find it inconvenient. I can't remember the last beer I drank directly from the bottle or can, but I think it was the same year Windows 3.11 was released.
What I want to know is when is someone like Blichman Engineering going to come up with a canning system for homebrewers...

I always think of it as a thick, sweet taste that coats and lingers on the tongue. Attenuation and too many non-fermentable sugars would be things to look at.

I think spreading the word amongst the brewing community will do the most damage...although it doesn't really help your financial loss.
