US-based beer brand Revolver is set to provide a canned release of its Blood & Honey, Sidewinder, Full-Tang IPA and Long-Range Pils’ products later this month.

Revolver co-founder Rhett Keisler said: “Texas is a big, hot outdoor-friendly state, and there are a lot of opportunities here where we think cans will go that bottles can’t.

“Texans like cans and they’re the fastest-growing segment of the market. They’re lighter, easier to transport and they give us the ability to get into venues where we previously weren’t able to go.”

The brewer has been installing a new canning line in its Granbury brewery in Texas.

Revolver made the decision to move to cans following a dip in sales of its glass bottle packaged products, which are sold in locations such as sports stadiums, golf courses, beaches, lakes and rivers.

In addition, the repackaging follows the brand’s portfolio expansion, which includes 7.2% alcohol-by-volume (ABV) India pale ale (API) Full-Tang IPA and German-style pilsner Long-Range Pils.

Keisler further added: “Look, we’re in bottles and we love bottles. This just gives us another package that really opens up new avenues. Cans are a very popular choice right now and we’re excited to get them in there.”
