Re: Canned Beer

Tom laments the lack of metal jackets for our favorite brew: "Now, Charlie you know Sam Adams does notcome in cans!" It took years, but now my wife understands and notices the difference in the hierarchy of beer storage; draft is best, then bottles, and cans come in last. But on the boat, I am firm about trying to keep glass containers to a minimum, so we often stock "boat beer" (which means it's in cans). Fortunately, "Vitamin Y" - an essential part of any sailor's diet - is available in cans. (For those who have not been aboard Pentaquod or Jambalaya, Vitamin Y is also known commercially as "Yuengling Lager", and is one of Pennsylvania's great gifts to the rest of the Union.)

I was introduced to Yuengling many years ago while indulging a passion, other than sailing, in the Chestnut Hill area. (I was also introduced to Hebrides Single Malts. do I have a problem here? ;-) I still pick up a six of Vitamin Y for nostalgia's sake whenver I am in the area. td From: Ca… [at] yahoogroups.com [mailto:Ca… [at] yahoogroups.com]On Behalf Of Alfred Poor Sent: Wednesday, March 05, 2008 9:06 AM To: Ca… [at] yahoogroups.com Subject: [Cal_Boats] Re: Canned Beer Tom laments the lack of metal jackets for our favorite brew: "Now, Charlie you know Sam Adams does notcome in cans!"
