Beauty and the Can

Cans went stale. On our watch. And we never even noticed.

The drinks didn’t, of course – canning is comfortably the best way to keep your drink in perfect condition, but the cans themselves got a bit – well… boring.

We’re all used to seeing the soft drinks and beer giants using their familiar brands to sell their wares and their familiar cans have filled supermarket shelves for many, many years – it was an identi-kit fridge selection almost anywhere you went in the world.

What a delight then, to see a gorgeous revolution being led by the craft market.

On the theme of names, this one is a cracker… Ever wondered what the name of the amendment that made it legal to drink in the USA was post-prohibition?

Here’s a beauty of a can that will give you a clue:

Want moor? Even a more ‘classical design’ can offer so much more than we ever saw in the 80s…
