Usually, I just put in the name of a brand in the BMV search function such as these two Miller cans. Sometimes a popular brand will produce so many links that you may go through a lot of pages before you track down the exact can you’re looking for. You can try to correlate the link list with the New Cans List from the BMV.
Something that I find invaluable and hardly used or mentioned is the New Cans Search in the Beer Magazine Viewer. It has links to all the New Can content in all the issues in the BMV. At present there are 636 links shown. Because each link starts on the first page of can information, the total number of pages involved could be 3 to 4 times greater.
How do you get there or use it? If you haven’t already downloaded it, do so and after installation, run the update feature. Once that’s done, select “VIEW” from the top left of the menu bar. This produces a small window with multiple choices. Drop down and select “NEW CANS”. This produces that 600+ list of links. You can search through there randomly if you so choose.
So, any way you choose use to use the BMV, it is a great resource. Thanks Randy Karasek!
Oh yeah, if you were wondering, the Clipper is 1979 and the Players is 1977.
