Oakshire Brewing Shows Off Their New Cans This Week in Portland & Eugene

On the heels of releasing their popular Watershed IPA in cans earlier this year, the Oakshire crew is proud to announce that Oakshire Original Amber Ale and Overcast Espresso Stout are now available in 12-ounce/6-pack cans. The release means that all of Oakshire’s year-round beers are now available in cans, as Amber and Stout join Oakshire’s India Pale Ale. Sales of the 12-ounce/6-pack cans, and distribution throughout Oregon and Washington will begin Monday, October 21st.

“We’re thrilled to package our Amber and Stout in cans,” explains Brewmaster Matt Van Wyk. “The bottom line is that cans are better for the quality of beer, and that’s what I care about. Cans keep light out of the beer and have less oxygen pickup, which will allow us to have a great experience with fresh beer. The extra benefits of portability, recyclability and a single serving size are all just bonuses for us.”

Oakshire Original Amber Ale and Overcast Espresso Stout 12-ounce/6-pack cans will be available locally and throughout the Pacific Northwest beginning today, and each will continue to be available in 22- ounce bottles and on draft.

The Oakshire team is excited to celebrate the release of cans throughout the week with the following events:

• Dig-A-Pony (Portland): Monday 10/21 4:30pm
• The Bier Stein (Eugene): Wednesday 10/23 6:00pm
• The Barn Light (Eugene): Thursday 10/24 5:00pm
