Yesterday’s Honolulu Advertiser had a nice profile of Maui Brewing (thanks Doug). It’s a nice overview of how Sacramento resident Garrett Marrero moved to Kahana, on Maui, after buying the old Fish and Game Brewing Co. & Rotisserie. They’ve also started hand-canning their beers, which are now featured on Hawaiian Airlines, which is a great package for an island like Hawaii.
Three of Maui’s beers in cans. The Porter won a gold medal at last year’s GABF. There’s a nice photo series of their first canning on their website.

Are those cans shaped differently than standard beer cans?

I’m pretty sure they’re standard cans. What makes them look a little off is they haven’t been sealed, that is they don’t have the top on them. The cans come in two pieces, the bottom and the top. The can is filled and a sealer puts the top on. They probably just used empties for the photo.
