3cross Fermentation Coop, Worcester’s bicycle themed brewery, is shifting gears and transitioning from 500ml bottles to 16 oz cans. The new product line features colorful, eye catching labels designed by local artists.
The cans will initially be available in periodic, very limited releases at the taproom, first to Coop members on Wednesdays and to the general public on Thursdays (while supplies last). Check the website or Facebook page for up to date information on availability.
The first five beers to be released in cans are:
Sheldon Brown Ale: Label design by Aaron White
Trackstand Pilsner: Label design by Scott Boilard
Single-Speed Pale Ale: Label design by Derek Ring
Brevet IPA: Label design by Adam Cutler
Hilltopper Belgian Blond Ale: Label design by Tia Kinsman
“Our hope is that the artwork featured on our beer labels will bring a new audience to those artists and to Worcester’s vibrant art scene in general,” – Heather Odell, 3cross worker-owner and taproom manager.
“We are super excited to be able to showcase the talent of Worcester artists on our new cans and are proud to be able to contribute to the fantastic arts scene that already exists here,¨ but in a new way,” – Jess Howland, 3cross worker-owner and community outreach director.
