Growlers

[45 for me]

My brother and I have really started to heavily utilize the Growler fill option at many local breweries. Kind of a fun way to go. You can get a decent quantity of draft beer that may not be available in a bottle for usually a decent price. Laurelwood has the best version. (although they are out of them right now). The Hydro flask keeps it cold until you get home.

Polished off a couple tonight, and am feeling pretty good...

For now.





64oz of fun

I thought you were talking about taking a dump.

Where do you like to go and what does it cost? Any nice bargains out there?

My wife and I are fans of McMenamins growlers in whatever flavor catches our fancy. I like the growler idea in the pic above. Very good idea!

I think that Deschutes' growlers are my favorite:

Where do I get one? And whats the usual cost to get them filled? Can I get like four or five filled at a time?

 

[DeletedUser1]

at one of the brewpubs for the price of the Beer and a one time price for the growler

Laurelwood is one of the better prices: $10 for a fill of your jar or $14 for a fill & a jar. That is for the standard jar, not the insulated bottle shown above. Mcmenamins is about $15 for a fill. I would say they are usually between $10-$15. One nice thing is all of the breweries will fill each others growler, so I just keep a jug in the trunk of my car.

Kind of fun to keep the party going.

Be carefully filling too many, beer goes bad quickly (24-72 hrs) once it's exposed to air.

Oh I doubt it would be around long enough to go bad..

The New Seasons Market that just opened up at Progress Ridge in Tigard has a bar in the store with two rotating taps so you can fill your growlers while getting your groceries.

To revive an old thread...
If you're in the Eugene area you can purchase these at Ninkasi for $50 (64oz), save shipping. Usually 16 Tons runs a deal for growler fills. Last one I saw was $12 for a growler of Tricerahops. Also Bier Stein will do growler fills.

I get my growlers filled At Beer Dawgs in Redmond. Awesome selection, great prices (I think $9-$11). Its also right next door the the new X Tactical gun/ammo/gear store off the 97 in Redmond.

Was just at that X Tacical store on Monday. Yikes, they don't have a whole lotta stuff in stock! Place was plum near empty!!

I talked to the owner there, they are still under a soft opening. They will be getting tons more stuff in stock over the next few months.

Back in high school ('65 or earlier) when I was doing electric motor repairs a "growler" was used to check armatures for shorts. They passed a magnetic field through the armature and made a different sound when there was a short.
