Root beer in aluminum pint bottle

For premier craft brewer Oskar Blues Brewery of Lyons, CO, combining their home-brewed root beer with a convenient, quick-chilling, resealable aluminum bottle benefited not only Oskar Blues and its customers but also the family of Brian Stiff.

Resealable aluminum is quick-chilling and helps a good cause.
Resealable aluminum is quick-chilling and helps a good cause.

The Alumi-Tek® bottles are from Ball Corp. Stiff was a part of the local Lyons bike scene and father of two who recently and unexpectedly passed away. When Lyons locals looked for ways to help his widow, it seemed only natural for Dale Katechis to name Oskar Blues’ root beer B.Stiff & Sons as a tribute to their friend.
