Mammoth Brewing Company @ Canfest 09
I have to admit that though I’ve been drinking Mammoth Brewing Co beer since I moved to the east side 11 years ago, this was the first time I’d seen it in a can! And that officially makes it my favorite backpacking beer for Sierra Nevada trips. Guaranteed I’ll make a point of packing some of that.
The 395 is by far their best beer, but I don’t think they can it, but the High Country Amber is pretty tasty. The Real McCoy Pilsner is ok, not bad as pilsner’s go, but generally speaking I don’t like pilsners.

Check out Mammoth Brewing at almost every local restaurant between Bridgeport and Mojave. They’re everywhere. Notably, the Tioga Pass Gas Mart and all the Pizza Factory shops from Mammoth to Independence.
We didn’t find that many real man cans @ canfest, but most of the small canners said they want to grow up at some point and start doing real cans. Mammoth was no exception. With a name that is synonymous with largeness, we’ll hold them to it.
