All four of the 16-oz aluminum cans are from Rexam.

“We always knew we wanted to launch our unique craft beers in cans,” said Jason Medvec, president, Big Wood Brewery. “Cans provide complete protection from light that helps preserve freshness. They also offer us a lot more space to tell our branding story. Through our partnership with Rexam, we have the perfect package for our beers.”
