Check out the press release below from Tin Roof Brewing:
So... the cans are almost here. Look for the Perfect Tin Amber to be out on shelves around Baton Rouge this week. It makes a lot of sense to start with the amber as it is more suited to hot weather and tailgating than Voodoo Bengal Pale Ale. Hopefully the new Bandit Blonde Ale will be along in cans shortly too!

TIN ROOF BREWING COMPANY LAUNCHES PERFECT TIN AMBER IN 12 oz. CANS
BATON ROUGE, LA (August 29, 2011) - Tin Roof Brewing Co. is pleased to announce the launch of their canning line and the release of their flagship brew, Perfect Tin Amber Ale, in 12-ounce aluminum cans. Tin Roof, Baton Rouge's only microbrewery, will be the first Louisiana brewery to launch a full scale canning line. Perfect Tin Amber Ale will begin being distributed this week in Baton Rouge, New Orleans, and select stores on the Northshore.*
"Cans were the obvious choice for our first packaged product," said Charles Caldwell, Tin Roof co-founder. "With all of the activities we love in Louisiana, such as parades, tailgating, festivals, and being outdoors in general, cans can go where bottles can't."
But that's not the only reason for cans. "Cans are lighter than bottles, chill faster, require less fuel to transport, are more readily recyclable and protect beer from the degrading effects of exposure to light," Caldwell said. "Extremely low oxygen pickup during the canning process helps extend shelf-life and ensures your beer is as tasty and fresh as the way it was intended."
More and more microbreweries are turning to cans, threatening to break the reputation of glass as the only worthy container for a quality brew. Adding all of the environmentally friendly aspects to the quality beer they keep, all we can say is "YES we CAN."
Tin Roof Brewing Company was founded in Baton Rouge, Louisiana and began operations in November 2010. Tin Roof currently offers two flagship brands, Perfect Tin Amber Ale and Voodoo Bengal Pale Ale. Both brands are available on draft, and while Perfect Tin will be available in cans this week, Voodoo Bengal should follow in the coming months. Tin Roof plans statewide distribution by the end of 2011. Brewery tours are every Friday from 5:30-7:30.
