Big News from NOLA Brewing

Drum-roll please…..
 
NOLA Brewing is happy to announce that we have received a loan from ASI Federal Credit Union and are currently in development of starting a canning line! That’s right, people, in just a matter of months you’ll be able to enjoy your favorite NOLA Brew in a can (although, you should always pour a beer — bottle or can — into a glass!).
 
Although the canning is a trend in the craft beer world, we’ve chosen to go with a canning line over a bottling line for a few reasons:
 

  • Cans are more environmentally friendly than bottles. In New Orleans, you can’t recycle bottles but you can recycle cans. We’re a green brewery and we don’t want our bottles ending up in a landfill somewhere; since cans are environmentally friendly, we chose to go with them.
  • Cans provide better packaging for the beer. Cans protect the beer against light oxidation and provide you with a better flavor than bottles.
  • You can have cans on the street, you can’t have bottles. In New Orleans, especially during Mardi Gras, we like to drink our beer in the street and cans are just a better choice.
  • Cans are more water-friendly. If you’re an outdoors-man, or just someone who likes to have fun in the summer, think about knocking back a few of your favorite NOLA Brews while sitting on your boat. Or sitting in a tube floating down a river. Or sitting on the beach with your latest summer book. Yeah, it’s a nice thought, isn’t it?

    Our canning line is still about six months out, giving you all plenty of opportunity to get excited about it! We’ll roll out with our Blonde Ale and then, as quickly as we can, begin canning our other beers. All of NOLA Brewing beers, the year rounds and the seasonals, will be available in cans.The year round brews, NOLA Blonde, NOLA Brown, Hopitoulas and 7th Street Wheat will be available in six-packs of 12oz cans and our seasonals will be available in four-packs of 16oz cans.
     
    So there you have it! NOLA Brewing couldn’t be more excited about this news and we hope you are, too! So let us know, are you excited about the NOLA Brewing Canning Line?
