Any of you guys bought some beer this way yet?  There is a place in Dover, NH (Garrison) that is packaging beer this way.  I'm not sure where else yet.

For those unaware this is basically an on-demand canning machine so you can get 32 oz cans of beer to go.

So it's a mod of an old steel can seamer?  Pretty cool.  I've been saying for a long time homebrewers will be canning their beer someday.  This is the next step.

I know this is sort of for lulz, but once you crimp the lip, the can is screwed to use over. Those are really cool machines though.

They have them at Cigar City. Had some growing pains with them. The lids were coming unsealed or something like that. I think it's been fixed.
