You can find a whole range of craft beer cans in store and online at Morrisons. Here's why cans are ideal for craft beer...along with  some of the most distinctive designs to keep your eyes peeled for - all with equally distinctive flavours.


The craft of packaging beer

Cans - think of them as miniature kegs - are increasingly popular when it comes to craft beer. Lots of brands are expressing their creativity inside and out, with bright, colourful, arty illustrations - as well as some subtly stylish designs - to mirror their quirky brews.

Craft beer cans are also great for keeping the flavours intact. Bottles and cans both keep heat and oxygen away from the beer and prevent 'tainting', but cans have the advantage when it comes to keeping light - which can also harm the taste - away from the hoppy compunds inside. By this logic, it's also worth making sure you enjoy your craft beer in a shady spot to get the flavours at their best.


Benefits Of Craft Beer Cans:

  • Craft beer cans keep out heat, light and oxygen to preserve flavours
  • 330ml is ideal for serving in a schooner for the best taste
  • Lighter than glass bottles - good for camping or days out
  • Handy size for fridge storage, and chill quicker
  • Ringpulls mean no need for a bottle opener
  • 'Tinnies' are no longer made of tin or steel - no more metallic taste 
  • Cans are allowed in many places where glass is not - like festivals
