The guys from Blackberry Farm in Tennessee brought another successful beer tasting as the conversation ranged from pils to hops to cans.<\/p>\n

The round of six beers included the original brew that started New Belgium Brewing in Colorado \u2014 Abbey Belgian-style dubbel (sorry, Fat Tire fans) \u2014 and the collaboration between Blackberry and Food & Wine magazine for the publication\u2019s 40th anniversary.<\/p>\n

And then the burning beer question came up: Do brews taste better or worse in a can, and why now is the pushing really taking off among U.S. craft brewers?<\/p>\n

Roy Milner, who runs the brewery at Blackberry and has spent 25 years as a craft brewer, said the biggest step is canning technology is better and not nearly as expensive, saying the pricetag used to be about $10 million for a serious canning setup.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe two biggest enemies of beer are light and oxygen. Cans are the future,\u201d Milner, who gave a nod to the ease of toting aluminum when hiking, biking, rafting and outdoors-ing. \u201cI love them. And, they are the easiest format to transport in an outdoor setting.\u201d<\/p>\n

Milner said the quick ascent of New Belgium\u2019s Fat Tire, which really took off in the mid-1990s, pushed the \u201cAbbey dubbel into the janitor\u2019s closet after\u201d but the brewery will always keep the original recipe in its beer quiver.<\/p>\n

The \u201cWorld\u2019s Greatest Beers\u201d event returns this afternoon at the Limelight, but get there early. The 80-person room was filled up to the brim.<\/p>\n
