No Glass For 16 Mile

New start up brewer 16 Mile Brewing, based in Georgetown (USA), will bottle its beers in a 22oz aluminium "bottle" from Exal in Ohio. This size in metal is a US first. The founders said that the single biggest reason for downtime in the bottling process was bottle breakage and thus added to the usual lightweight, durability, all round graphics and greater volume consistency cited by the manufacturers.
