Oskar Blues brought another Burning Can festival to Bohn Park in Lyons on Saturday. This was the fourth year in a row that the brewery that pioneered canned craft beer gathered several dozen other breweries from around the country who package their brews in outdoors-friendly, recyclable aluminum cans. And to prove that nothing goes better with fun in the sun than cold canned beer, the festival also featured kayaking, dirt bikes, live music and camping.
