The Big Crank 440mL
A decade of our little orange can. Now there's a little more to love.
On 3 November 2016, we put our much-loved Crankshaft IPA into cans for the very first time. What started as a Canberra favourite was about to find its way into fridges, eskies and beer glasses across the country.
Fast forward ten years and Crankshaft has become one of Australia's most recognised craft IPAs, picking up plenty of accolades and winning over beer lovers along the way. And what better way to celebrate a decade in cans than by giving you a little more Crankshaft to enjoy?
Introducing The Big Crank. Everything you love about our iconic Crankshaft, now in a bigger 440mL can. Same legendary IPA, just a little more to enjoy.
Ten years on, we're pretty chuffed with how far it's travelled.
Known for its bold hop character, floral nose and notes of citrus and pine, Crankshaft has earned its place as one of Australia's favourite IPAs. But it's the continued support of our drinkers, venues and stockists that has helped keep this beer cranking year after year.
As BentSpoke Co-Founder and Head Brewer Rich Watkins puts it:
"We are thrilled to get to 10 years of Crankshaft in a can. A lot has happened in our brewing industry over the last 10 years and it's great to see that consumers still like great craft beer. The journey doesn't stop here. We're marking this milestone with a limited release of a Crankshaft 440mL, and we hope you enjoy that little bit extra!"
A little more Crank in your tank
Over the years, Crankshaft has grown into a family of its own, with Half Cranked (3.2% ABV) and Crank Zero (less than 0.5% ABV) joining the line-up. Different gears, same family spirit.
Now, to celebrate ten years of Crankshaft in cans, we're turning things up another notch with The Big Crank.
Our iconic Cranking IPA boasts the floral nose you know and love with notes of citrus and pine. Medium-bodied with a punch of hops and a solid malt finish, it’s the full-flavoured brew that really cranks.
Get your hands on The Big Crank
The Big Crank 440mL cans are available for a limited time, exclusively through the BentSpoke online store and at the BrewPub, before rolling out to stockists from next week.
Ten years in the can and still cranking.
