I grew up in Philly so Yuengling is typically my to-go for a tasty canned beer that is relatively inexpensive, but during the hot summers Modela especial (in the white cans) goes down easy and it very refreshing. Growing up in the North it's a hell of a lot easier to buy beer in TN, there is a much larger canned variety down here and is generally cheaper.
I am very happy I don't live in Canada, I like beer too much.
Also remember that it is theoretically illegal to bring beer taxed in another state into Tennessee. People do it all the time, but if you get caught at the border with 8 cases they might take an interest and/or use it as an excuse to search the hell out of you.
Seconding this. It is by far the best beer I have had in a can and it is up there with total favorites. Already added a case of it to my packing list. (yes I realize its way to early to have a list, but I like making lists. So sue me)
I am seconding everyone who said Oskar Blues and Fat Tire (not sure if you can find other New Belgium beers in a can). I am originally from California but I lived in CO for 5 years and you can't beat the Colorado microbreweries
Yeah, my buddy from NC keeps telling me that Fat Tire is his fav brew and how disappointed he is that we cant get it in DE. Trade from Fat Tire for some Old Chub?
Oh, and to the guy who linked the Ying: good choice!
Can I get an American's thought's on Rolling Rock? It just came up to Ontario a little while ago. I feel its a "better" tasting PBR......?
Haven't had RR in a long time, but I never really enjoyed it at all. I forget who bought them (maybe budweiser, now inbev?), but they also shut down the plant they use to brew at in PA. I would stick with PBR over Rolling Rock any day.

Old Chub is one of my favorite brews that I've had! Much better than Fat Tire.
There is good American Beer as well these days, I wish Yazoo would go to cans.
I was curious as if they did sell cans of yazoo anywhere. Too bad.
He has considered switching over, but not any time soon. Honestly beer in cans is a better way to go, it is cheaper, greener, and keeps the UV light from degrading the brew.
As to the Rolling Rock, when I can buy a case for 15 dollars they can be in the running again.

IMO Rocks are much better than PBR but I have nothing against PBR either. I've chosen PBR often for a low-price option. In the states PBR is considered lower quality than RR. But to each their own.

you guys are arguing over american cheap ass lagers vs canadian cheap ass lagers. it's like whose feet smell worse.
you really need to get to the new american craft beer selection to get quality beer. 21st amendment has been the best that i have found in a can, with fat tire and yuengling to be the best "most accessible" beer that i have found in cans in TN

Rolling rock is basically a light beer with little to no hops or malt, even for an American macro brew. PBR is no world class beer, but at least it has some taste to it. Now, I occasionally dip into some RR if its (and nothing better is available) cheap at a bar and I am going for distance, but I would say PBR beats it any day.

i would say that old chub > fat tire but oskar blues > than new belgium? no wayyyy. too many amazing beers...
Only sold in Chicago, but amazing stuff. Daisy Cutter is more of a hoppy beer (West Coast Pale Ale), Gossamer is an easy-drinking Golden ale, and Over Ale is a brown ale. All delicious and worth it for Chicago peeps or anyone traveling thru Chicago to the farm.

Daisy Cutter is the best. Definitely putting a couple in the cooler this year...
Probably the best canned beers i've ever had are from Oskar Blues :
1. Dales Pales ale - light pale ale great flavor 2. Ma'ma's little yella pils - is an excellent example of a great day time brew for the heat 3. Old Chub - great brew heavy malt taste with complex roasted flavor 4. Ten Fidy - Is way too heavy for the heat but an excellent stout for a night beer. 5. Gubna DIPA - Is worth the money a lot more taste / alcohol i would strongly recommend them
There is also a brewery named 21st Amendment that have some okay beers nothing too amazing. Butternuts Beer and Ale recently came here in canned form but i haven't had anything. But their rated well on Beer-advocate. For some good stouts Young's Double Chocolate Stout is very very good and not too expensive in canned form.
Also i would also recommend Magic Hat#9 ,Fat Tire, Brooklyn Lager, Harpoon IPA and Anderson Valley's ( organic canned beers) their light and canned but excellent . Plus there is nothing wrong with Yuengling or even Miller High life for the macro-lager-styles.
Nothing canned from Canada in Maryland so i am unsure if there is anything worth while, but i doubt it, i would know about it ;-).
