September has been a synergistic month for the topic of canned beer. In addition to the NPR story and the Canfest announcement, Charlie Papazian over on his Examiner.com site had an article on canned beer last week. Naturally, the story focuses primarily on Oskar Blues as the first craft brewer to can their beer, but at the end is a gem: a list of microbrewers that currently offer their beer in cans.

It’s a great reference, and I’m going to shamelessly reproduce that list here:
