can supplier options

[fearless1]

Do we have any small quantity can options yet? A year ago it was pretty much Ball (12 pallets) or Rexam (24 pallets) per label. I dread this next can order. Hoping to make this one easier.

Drink more beer,

Blank cans, plastic shrink wrap labels.

You can only order sub-truckload sizes of blanks.

But they look fantastic with a heat shrink sleeve. Only issue is if you need a sleeve dispenser, or if your runs are small enough to do by hand. Building a heat tunnel is elementary.

Looking for any alternatives to the major company out there supplying cans to small brewers. Any help?

[gitchegumee]

Gotta be someone, somewhere supplying small-lot can runs to a growing market. Or not?

We can provide aluminum cans and ends for short runs. Printed or plain.

You'll want to talk with Crown Cork. They're at 10 pallets and so far great to work with.

We use CROWN cans and their supprt is great. They even sent a tech person out to help resolve some seam issues with our 5 head CASK canner.

I completely agree with triple and mikefromcu. We have been using Crown for more then a year now and are very happy. Thanks Crown.

Fremont Brewing in Seattle uses Crown for 12 oz cans and our minimum is 8 pallets. You will pay a slight up charge for small runs but for special beers or smaller packaging breweries, this is better than the alternatives available.

I will also echo the posts re: customer support. For example, our rep in Philly was emailing this morning to help our current process keep moving forward as the storm was pounding the East Coast from her home. Clearly, this is above and way beyond the call of duty and representative of the service Crown delivers.

West Coast contact is Brian Thiel and he is exceptional:
