Atlanta, Georgia based Red Brick Brewing has decided to eliminate bottles completely from their lineup by the end of the year. At least, as far as they year-round and seasonals go.
In 2014, Red Brick debuted Laughing Skull Amber Ale in cans, a brewery first. The success of the switch was undeniable.
“We continue to focus on sustainability and we feel that cans are a more sustainable option. Aluminum is one of the most widely recycled consumer packages in the United States. In addition, aluminum provides our products complete protection from harmful UV light” – Garett Lockhart, President & Brewmaster
All of Red Brick’s core and seasonal releases will be available in cans by January, 2017. The brewery’s specialty Brick Mason Series will soon transition to 16 ounce cans.
Occasional brewery only releases will be available in bottles in limited quantities.
