History
In July of 2010, the Wind River Brewing Co located in downtown Pinedale, WY received its brand new canning line, making it the first and only brewery in the state of Wyoming to package its beer in cans, 16 oz. cans to be exact. Once reserved for inexpensive mass produced beers, canning is the latest trend in craft brewing mainly because of the fact that cans will not let any light through them, thus better preserving the beer's taste and freshness. But the brewery also had another reason in mind when they chose cans over bottles... the fact that they are located in the state of Wyoming, where people come to enjoy the abundant natural resources and the many outdoor activities the region has to offer. Cans are much more transportable than bottles when you want to enjoy a quality brew during your time out in the wild. In addition, Wind River Brewing's packaging is 100% recyclable, including the 4-pack rings, which are also re-usable.
