This wall of beer is made from cans from British Columbia breweries collected from some time in 2021 to May 2024. There was a fairly low bar for a beer to be included on the wall. A beer was selected if we thought we would want to drink it again. Frequently we would say that we were glad to have tried a particular beer, but we don't need to have it again. In this case it wouldn't qualify for wall. About 1 in 4 cans made the cut. I kept a list of the beers that made it to the wall in an Excel file: beer-list. I realize that it would have been a more useful list if it had included beer sampled and rejected, so you would know which products to avoid. All these beers were bought at Jak's on Granville Street (near 10th) in Vancouver. They have an exceptional rotating selection of tall cans. Too many IPAs though.

For this third version I knew that I was going to need reinforcement. There was a lot of tape, plus cardboard and some wood ribbing. Reinforcement was especially necessary for the alternate, more vertical version using the same cans. (Actually, I needed 12 more cans to make the dimensions work.)
