The best can label designs used by craft brewers in North America will be recognised with a competition backed by leading canmaking firm Ball Corporation.
The First Annual Canny Awards will be judged and presented at the Craft Brewers Conference being held at San Diego in California from 2-5 May.
Other backers of the awards are Cask Brewing Systems, which manufactures canning lines, Hi-Cone, which produces the plastics six-pack for multi-packs, and Mumm Products, which also makes secondary packaging for canned products.
