Pateros Creek Brewing Co.’s first attempt at canning beer fell flat Wednesday.
The brewery at 242 N. College Ave. attempted to can two of its beers for the first time using a mobile canning company out of Longmont called Mobile Canning.
The brewery planned to fill 140 cans with Cache La Porter and Old Town Ale, 70 16-ounce cans of each beer, and sell four-packs of the beers in Fort Collins and Loveland liquor stores.
But temperature and carbon dioxide level issues in the first canning attempt resulted in a lost barrel of beer and postponement of canning until Saturday, said Pateros Creek co-owner and brewer Steve Jones.
Jones said the beer’s quality was not up to their standards and they needed to work out some issues with the canning process in terms of low, poor quality fills.
