Proof Brewing is Set for Canning

Proof Brewing Co. is the largest brewery in Tallahassee and they are pumped to share some exciting news: cans by June!

They are currently preparing to start canning beer and if everything goes smoothly these bad boys will be hitting the Tallahassee market by June, with hope of spreading to the Panhandle.

“It’s a really big deal because it potentially doubles our production capacity,” says Owner, Byron Burroughs.

To celebrate, Proof is hosting a “can party” cookout on April 29 at the brewery, 644 McDonnell Drive. He said those who buy a six-pack can get a free “EightFive-0″ T-shirt, which is a shoutout to the brewery’s flagship American pale ale.

Proof Brewing Co. opened in 2012. It moved to the Railroad Square Art Park in 2014 and began its large-scale production. It sells six core beers: EightFive-O, Mango Wit, Guru IPA, Assassin Caterpillar, Creatures in the Dark Stout and Ghost Totem Porter. It also serves hundreds of varieties of craft beers.

Burroughs said the canned product will launch and be sold at the brewery. Once it hits the market, canned beers will be available anywhere craft beer is sold, including major retailers.
