Liverpool-based craft brewer Cains is launching the first ever British ale to be sold in a one pint can. 

 

From this month the company’s popular Cains FA (Formidable Ale) will be available in a traditional British pint at over 180 ASDA stores across the country.  

 

The launch follows a recent ruling by the European Union confirming that the UK can keep imperial measurements. It forms part of Cains’ ‘Best of British’ concept that will also see the company invest in a series of refurbishments across its 105-strong pub estate. 

 

Cains chief executive Sudarghara Dusanj, said: “The pint is a cornerstone of British culture and, as one of the UK’s leading craft brewers, we’re keen to celebrate this great British tradition and bring the pint firmly into the off-trade. 

 

“Cains FA has been one of our top selling lines since it was first introduced and we’re confident that the new pint can will prove popular with drinkers.”

 

Brewed with the finest British malts and hops, Cains FA is a classic golden English ale.   It has a full bodied flavour yet is light and delicate with a clean bitterness balanced by a rich fruitiness.
