Find a Harpoon Golden Can, Win a Holiday Party at the Brewery

A beloved Boston brewer is spreading holiday cheer this year. If you find a Harpoon golden can, you can win a number of prizes.

Are you thinking what I'm thinking? This is basically the Golden Ticket from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, but for beer lovers! And without some bratty little sod like Veruca Salt to spoil the mood. Or some lazy bones like Grandpa Joe who's "bedridden" but suddenly can get up and about just fine once there's a chocolate factory trip in the mix. I always thought that guy was suspect.

Harpoon Brewery, the makers of New England's very first IPA, have announced the Harpoon "Spread Holiday Cheer Giveaway." Through December 1, 2023, limited edition Golden Can 12-packs of Harpoon IPA are hitting the shelves at your local packie. If you discover one of the golden cans in your 12-pack, you'll be an instant winner and have a shot at a pretty festive grand prize.

Here's how the prizes break down, straight from the Gold Can page of the Harpoon website:

Host your holiday party for up to 30 people at either the Harpoon Brewery in Boston, MA or the Harpoon Brewery Taproom & Beer Garden in Windsor, VT (1 winner per location)

Custom 23L Cooler & charcuterie board from Vermont Farmstead (5 winners)

Harpoon IPA swag pack including a Harpoon IPA hat or t-shirt, 4 Harpoon IPA pint glasses and koozies (20 winners)

I'm no math whiz, but I just crunched the numbers and that looks to be 27 total prizes for 27 Golden Cans. I like those odds, especially because I like Harpoon IPA. You can get more information on the contest here. And if you get a Golden Can and you win a holiday party, maybe make the friendly rock radio DJ who told you all about it one of the 30 people you invite? Thanks!
