Heady Topper, one of the top 3 (arguably) IPAs in the world has the message on the top to drink directly from the can- it is a very carbonated beer I guess and not sure if the pour messes with that?
Saw someone mention Snake Lake in a post above- another great new brewery that hit the ground running with some solid beers.

With regards to Heady, the brewer says it is too get more of the aroma in your face. Also, it was the first of the unfiltered, hazy IPAs, and they didn't think people would like the looks of it. I guess they were wrong there! They do sell IPA glasses in their tap room, so I guess they aren't too stringent about that recommendation.
