Booze

As drummer for award-winning Yacht Rock cover band 3 Sheets to the Wind (America’s #1 Tribute to Yacht Rock), drumming and drinking had to collide. Enter Steely Can Wine.

It all started with some post-gig riffing, naming wines after songs we had played that night. As ideas for the wines began to flow, we realized (as is often said about great wines) our canned wine plan had legs.

Now, from the band that specializes in vintage California smoothness, we bring you a selection of smooth California vintages. Enjoy!

Cheers
