Democrats defeat assured...beer shortage looms...

[Dekster]

It didn't effect bottles at all. In fact when the can shortage started (about 2 years ago) breweries switched to bottles. They laid the blame on covid. People that normally drank at bars and restaurants that served beer started buying their own for home. That dramatically increased aluminum can usage as draft beer comes in kegs, and few have a keg cooler at home.

While new can factories were being built, construction wasn't expected to be complete until January of this year. Well January is gone and we're into August, and I still can't buy my Molson Canadian in cans. I hate buying bottles because I'm a daily beer drinker, and it really weighs down my recycle bin. Plus cans are cheaper than bottles, and when I recycle my cans, at least I get a few bucks out of it.

That's right...a CO2 shortage is threatening US beer manufacturing.

Think things are bad now? Wait until we run out of beer...

CO2 shortage threatens beer business in another example of the 'United Shortages of America'

A crisis in the supply of industrial carbon dioxide is causing chaos for American breweries, which rely on the gas for both the production and packaging of beer.

Judging by your posts, you should probably cut back on your beer consumption anyway.

It tastes like happy syrup.

It's rum infused with coffee.

Some people will actually sip the stuff for an after dinner drink.
It's way to sweet for me to drink it like that. It goes well poured over some vanilla ice cream though.
