See You at ACBC and AMBQ 2025 + Giveaways

ACBC-Alberta-AMBQ-Quebec-Tradeshow-ALNA-Packaging-2025

We’ve got two more shows lined up before the year wraps up - Alberta Craft Brewing Convention (#ACBC) in Red Deer and Microbrasseries du Québec (AMBQ) in Québec City.

Same as always, we’ll be at our booths talking cans and can ends, and running a business card raffle for a free pallet of cans giveaway at each stop.

It’s been a year of shifting tariffs and plenty of déjà vu on the trade side, but it’s also been a year of seeing more breweries bounce back and plan ahead. That’s the part we look forward to catching up on face to face.
