One of my local craft bars, named "Craft Bar", does "Crowlers" - a single-use aluminum growler can. I haven't purchased one yet but I believe they are 32 ounces.

Crowlers are becoming more and more popular.

Here's more about them.

Grabbed Stone's latest Stochasticity Project ale (Your Father Smelt Like Elderberries - I admit it, I bought it mainly because of the name, although the last version of Stochasticity I got was good), as well as Azacca IPA from Founder's. Very drinkable, not too hoppy, quite smooth. I liked it

Molotov Lite is definitely a bit harsher of a double IPA, but I like it. Glad I grabbed that 4-pack tall boy.

I wish they came in sizes other than 32oz, since they are not resealable. Getting a high ABV beer in a crowler is a bad idea.

Okay, okay, so I got a six pack of Boston Lager and a six pack of Hop Dang Diggity. On my way to redemption!

I wouldn't mind a 16 oz. size, so I could get several beers on tap to take home.

Hop Dang Diggity?

It's a "Southern" IPA brewed by Jekyll in Alpharetta, GA. Somewhat readily available in the metro. IDK what their distribution is like otherwise.

I will. :D Perhaps I'll suggest to Mr. Kipper that he look for a car down that way.

I recently picked up a mixed 12 of Stone.

The Cali-Belgique IPA is seriously good!

Interesting that they describe their coffee milk stout as a session beer...it's 5% :eek:
