No slam on a nice cool Corona on a 100 degree day though, but I'll stick with Yuengling as my daily staple.Sean Roperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14088913008510103386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34271052.post-84318484131358532112009-08-24T20:25:36.141-04:002009-08-24T20:25:36.141-04:00I knew you'd like this post.

Bottles must be much easier to work with for most breweries, however. <br /><br />Screw caps are indeed the future of wine closures. After opening too many corked bottles, I am a big supporter of the switch to alternative closures. <br /><br />Even if they are perplexing at times.<br /><br />Here's to easy-open shiraz.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03029488568891369801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34271052.post-79481104928004814902009-08-22T12:39:11.623-04:002009-08-22T12:39:11.623-04:00Its good to see your embracing the can and the sou...Its good to see your embracing the can and the south. Both good things!<br /><br />Since cans are undoubtedly superior to bottles in regards to filtering light and oxygen damage. As well as not needing any special tool to open the can plus events, parks and beaches appreciate or insist that no glass be brought in.<br /><br />I expect (hope) to see most every good beer especially the ones with precious hope floras that we hope to be intact when that can opens and releases that citrus resinous smell of west coast hops or noble hops with that rich spicy earthy aroma from our friends across the ocean.<br /><br />I think a similar battle is going on with natural cork wine to that of screw tops or other non traditional wine caps. As the debate continues on how best to preserve that wine, many folks like myself at one time thought that anything with a screw top must be close kin to that of Mad Dog, Boones Farm, and Night Train. Big fat wrong, in fact while you were enjoying that fine can of brew I opened a bottle of Woop Woop, and it had the strangest cap on it, I had to ponder for a moment on how to get that wine to my glass. <br /><br />Maybe some day wine will be as straightforward and consistent as a can of beer to open, and who knows maybe when that shiraz is just at the right drinking temp, the grapes will turn blue.<br /><br />Cheers to cans, <br />mrTAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
