As he mentioned when we talked last week, our pal Jim Koch just confirmed in the Brewers Association forum that he will patent his can design and make it available to others royalty-free:
We’ve decided to make the patent-pending design available, without any royalty or license fee, to all craft brewers who would like to use this can. We’re still working out the details with Ball, our can manufacturer, but we anticipate that any craft brewer will be able to purchase this unique can from Ball sometime this fall depending on how things go at Ball.
