Fat Tug is now available in 6pack 330ml cans. Fat Tug is one of BC’s most popular beers, and it might just be the biggest selling IPA in Canada. Driftwood Brewing have a super solid core of brews available and all only available in bombers. What has happened to make Driftwood release these cans? I guess it’s the trend now. I don’t think it’s adapt or die for Driftwood, more a case, oh well we might as well give this a go.



Cans have fast become a trend over the past year or two. It’s effect has hit most breweries, especially in the main core of Vancouver Breweries. Every release has a tall can, an interesting name and a bright pattern style design to go with it. Cans are also way more fridge friendly for consumer and for beer stores. It may feel like we are taking a step back, but perhaps cans are the future… until bombers come back in style.



So should we expect to see more can releases from Driftwood or will it just be Fat Tug? I expect there not to be. Fat Tug feels like it should be in a can, and maybe some of their limited release like Twenty Pounder. But I really can’t see the full core line being available in cans anytime soon.
