The canned craft beer revolution has really caught on since Oskar Blues rocked the industry by shunning bottles and putting their award-winning brews in aluminum. Just over a year ago, Intuition Ale Works was the first craft brewery in the entire state of Florida to can their tasty brews, now there are many that can including Cigar City and Green Room. The latest local brewery to join the ranks of craft brewers putting beer in tubes, as the Aussies put it, is Bold City.
According to a press release from Bold City:
“Dukes Cold Nose Brown Ale has been canned and is our first canned beer. $1 from every case sold will go to support our local Jacksonville Humane Society!
“Bold City Dukes Cold Nose Brown Ale Cans will be available tomorrow in select areas/locations including ABC liquors, Total Wine & More, Broudy’s Liquors, Beer:30 and Grassroots Natural Market.
“Just around the corner, Killer Whale Cream Ale and Mad Manatee IPA will be canned in the coming months – so please stay tuned for further developments!”
Bold City Brewing Company was the first of the craft area craft brewers and has recently begun a major expansion to keep up with growing demand for their products. Future plans include creating an indoor bier garden in what used to be the brewing space of their brewery on Roselle Street in the Riverside/Avondale area of Jacksonville.
Watch for Bold City beer in cans to hit store shelves beginning Tuesday, June 25.
