Why did this growler take third place?
I liked the design. We’ve been using it for 2 months and it still looks like brand new. It is inconvenient to use due to the size. I am going to get something different next time.

growler Buyer’s Guide
Practical Aspects of Growler Closures
From a practical standpoint, there’s not much difference between screw-caps and flip-tops. While flip-top growlers are much harder to print on, most breweries tend to prefer a “classic” appearence over more generic-looking screw-cap beer growlers.
Number of taps: There are 1taps of Brewsters beers at each Brewsters location. The only exceptions are the 11th Ave. and Lake Bonavista locations, which have 2taps that include some extra seasonal beers and guest taps.
Growlers: You can purchase a 1.8litre growler at any Brewsters location. Will fill growlers from anywhere.
Things to know: You can refill your growler with a Brewsters beer flavour at any Brewsters location.
High Line Brewing
Number of taps: There are as many as eight taps featuring craft beer by High Line Brewing.
Growlers: High Line Brewing sells its own 3oz. Boston rounds and 6oz. amber, stainless and double S.S. growlers.
Liquor Depot
Number of taps: Depending on the location, Calgary Liquor Depots have a selection of 11 to 1local, Canadian and international beers.
Growlers: Liquor Depot has its own 3oz. howlers and 6oz. growlers available for purchase in-store. Will fill growlers from anywhere.
Vine Arts Wine & Spirits
Number of taps: Six taps that rotate weekly at the Victoria Park location and five taps that rotate weekly at the 1Ave. S.W. location. Usually at least a few of the taps feature beers from Calgary or Alberta-based breweries.
Growlers: Purchase one of their 6oz. growlers or 3oz. howlers in-store. Will fill growlers from anywhere.
Growler’s Beer & Wine Co.
This burgers-and-beer joint in Sugar Land has, for our money, the best-looking growlers, and often runs specials— such as collaboration growlers co-branded with Saint Arnold that get you a discounted fill of beer or free pint glasses with every growler fill. We recommend relaxing with one of Guru’s great burgers before heading home with your freshly filled growler.
Whole Foods
Get your shopping done in one fell swoop at this grocery store with an outsized beer fascination—what other grocery store do you know of that has a bar inside, or lets you get your shopping done while you stroll around with a pint of beer? Growlers are sold in two sizes here—6ounces and 3ounces—to be filled with any of six rotating brews.
Follow these same steps for your growler cap, which like all things are meant to be used multiple times but have their lifecycle. When good things come to an end and your growler cap isn’t performing to standard, we will provide you with a new cap to ensure proper sealing of your growler.
Pilsner Glasses
Pilsner glasses along with Weizen Glasses are great for light and medium bodied lager. The shape of this glass promotes head retention while allowing the aromatics of the beer to be released for enjoyment. These glasses also allow for the consumer to take large gulps of the refreshing beverage. This style of glass can be used for most pilsners, hefeweizens, and many types of lagers.
Nonic Pint Glasses
Nonic Pint Glasses originate from Europe as the glass of choice for most pints. The rounded flare helps give the glass extra gripping ability but also promotes surface area for the beer to develop more head which concentrates more aromas to the surface for the consumers’ first sip. This glass is ideal for stouts and beers with exceptionally creamy flavors. Can be used for most English and American styles of beer to include IPA’s under 8% ABV, English Bitters, Porters, Brown Ales, Pilsners, and Stouts.
Tulip Glasses
Tulip glasses are the perfect glass for a wide array of craft beers. The curve of the glass allows aromas to collect at the top of the glass and allows for plenty of foam. The stem allows for your hand to keep the beer from warming. Beverages with higher carbonation levels are great in Tulip Glasses because the bubbles settle beautifully in the base of the glass. The Tulip Glass is a great go-to-glass when in doubt of the perfect glassware but is preferably used for Saisons, Belgian Ales, Double or Imperial IPAs, Scotch Ales, and Ciders.
IPA Glasses
IPA Glasses are specifically designed to bring out the volatile and complex aromas of IPA style beers. This is a fairly new glass to the craft beer glassware market and was developed by leading brewers from Dogfish Head and Sierra Nevada. This IPA Glass is designed to complement the complex profiles of “hop forward” IPA beers, preserve the frothy head, enhance taste and mouth feel, while having a comfortable opening for consumer enjoyment. Beers best served in this are your complex and hop forward IPA style beers.
Late 1800s
Tin pails, pitchers, glass jars or jugs, and other vessels are used to carry beer home from the local pub, most common being a 2-quart galvanized or enameled pail. These “growlers” supposedly got their name because as the beer sloshed around, it caused the carbon dioxide to escape and create a growling noise.
Before WWII
Prior to WWII, children would bring covered buckets of beer from the local pub to workers at lunch time, or to their parents at dinner time. This became known as “rushing the growler”. The “Bucket Trade” was in action during the years leading up to Prohibition, until growlers were outlawed entirely.
Craft and Growler
What you need to know: This is the biggest on the growler scene, with 30 taps, each equipped with beer guns that put COin the growler before the beer so the liquid never touches air. This ensures the beer stays fresh in an unopened growler for at least two weeks. But we know your beer won’t make it that long.
Humperdink’s Restaurant
What you need to know: Humperdink’s brews its own beers, so if you’re looking for something outside the rest of the craft beer circle, you can head to any of the five locations. The beer is poured straight out of the tap, so it’s best to consume the growler within 4hours of filling it; otherwise you’ll be dealing with flat beer.
Rendezvous Beer Bar
When in St. Augustine, Rendezvous is a must. The staff is adorned with beer server certifications, and the lingo that it takes to talk about the 200-plus craft beers that line their coolers. You cannot tote their brews home, but trust me, you don’t want to. The historic atmosphere and the countless IPAs will give anyone the feels. It is not hard to stumble upon Rendezvous. You will find this little brew haven right off of St. George Street. So, stop in, grab a beer and chat it up with the most knowledgeable staff in St. Augustine.
Beer:30
Finding good craft beer that you are able to tote out of the store is more difficult than you would think. Beer:30 is making sure they have us covered by opening their second shop in San Marco. This location serves great as a second office for anyone who works downtown. Not to mention, it is on the way home to the beaches, so why not just wait here for traffic to die down? Heck, you can grab some brews to bring home to your partner. They have a bomber selection that rattles minds and impresses cicerones. Saddle up a six-pack, or drink it at the bar with the owner, Kevin. He encourages the company.
Filling The Void
VOID MAGAZINE is a free, full-color monthly magazine focused on North Florida’s culture. You’ll find in-depth stories about health, fitness, surf, skate, music, art, fishing and other North Florida ways of life. If you are interested in advertising, please contact us.
