    ALCOHOL TO GO

    64oz Draft Beer Growlers

    • Alewerks Pumpkin Ale 64oz Growler

      This amber colored ale is loaded with Pumpkin pie aroma and flavor. It actually does taste like Pumpkin pie! At 7.3% ABV, it will keep you warm on a cool Autumn eve.
      $30.00
    • Aslin Mind The Hop Double IPA 64oz Growler

      This beer really hits home for us. One of the first beers we ever made and it is one of our favorites. This is a Double India Pale Ale with Citra. On first taste you will get a citrus fruit salad followed by some dankness and light bitterness to round the flavor out. The neckbeards can't deny.
      $36.00
    • Atlas District Common 64oz Growler

      Inspired by the beers that accompanied America's expansion into the West, District Common is fermented using a lager yeast at temperatures common to ale fermentation. The result is a pale, well-balanced beer combining crisp lager character with fruity ale notes. The clean grain bill provides a refreshing drinkability and supports late aroma and dry hop additions of Czech Saaz hops. Pair with locally harvested oysters or roast pork medallions. This is no common beer!
      $27.00
    • Downeast Original Cider 64oz Growler

      The original unfiltered. A hard cider that tastes like apple cider. Smooth and refreshing, perfectly balanced. Like the cider you grew up drinking.
      $27.00
    • Fairwinds High Barbary Amber Ale 64oz Growler

      Base of German and Vienna and a touch of dark Munich malts. Sweet toasted malt flavor and aroma. Tettnanger hops in the mid boil and a finishing addition of Saaz hops for a hint of spice to the clean finish.
      $30.00
    • Great Lakes Dortmunder Gold 64oz Growler

      A hometown hero, draped in a people-pleasing blend of smooth malt and crisp hop flavors.
      $30.00
    • Kona Big Wave 64oz Growler

      Big Wave is light golden ale with a subtle fruitiness and delicate hop aroma. A smooth, easy drinking refreshing ale. The lightly roasted honey malt contributes to the golden hue of this beer and also gives a slight sweetness that is balanced out by our special blend of hops.
      $24.00
    • Port City Monkspell Tripel 64oz Growler

      The Monks will soon have you under their spell with this golden colored abbey ale. Subtly sweet pilsner malt and herbaceous noble hops leave room for expressive Belgian yeast character to shine. The aroma is fruity and peppery, along with a floral-herbal hop character, all setting the stage for a deceptively dry body.
      $36.00
    • Right Proper Raised By Wolves Pale Ale 64oz Growler

      A medium-bodied, aromatic, dry-hopped pale ale is loaded with lush and tropical hop character. Not quite an IPA, but more pungent than a typical pale ale. Juicy with aromas of citrus and stone fruit.
      $30.00
    • Smokecraft Lager by DC Brau 64oz Growler

      A collaboration with DC Brau, this is our modern interpretation of an American light lager from 1935. Brewed with North American 2-row barley and flaked corn, our lager boasts a crisp, dry finish with a light body. Perfect to pair with BBQ!
      $24.00
    • Solace Partly Cloudy IPA 64oz Growler

      A double dry-hopped, New England style IPA. Hopped exclusively with El Dorado and Citra. This is our juiciest IPA yet!
      $27.00
    • Starr Hill Groove Tangerine Wheat 64oz Growler

      A crisp, refreshing wheat ale with the sweet and tangy vibrance of tangerine.
      $30.00
    • Stone Delicious IPA 64oz Growler

      An intensely citrusy, beautifully bitter beer worthy of the simple-yet-lordly title of Stone Delicious IPA. Lemondrop and El Dorado hops combine to bring on a magnificent lemon candy-like flavor that's balanced by hop spice. Delicious is crafted to reduce gluten.
      $27.00
    • Sycamore Southern Girl Blonde Ale 64oz Growler

      Brilliantly golden in color and remarkably easy drinking, Southern Girl is perfectly balanced. Expect a biscuity, malt sweetness with subtle notes of strawberry and honeydew melon.
      $27.00
    • Triple Crossing Falcon Smash IPA 64oz Growler

      An ever faithful IPA born from both the necessity of what we had to work with, and what we had to do. Brewed with a softer grist of North American 2 Row and Malted Wheat, fermented with our expressive house ale yeast, and dry hopped with a focus on the Falconers Flight hop blend, this beer delivers on balanced hop and yeast character of brighter citrus, orange pine marmalade, and stone fruit cohesion.
      OUT OF STOCK
      $36.00
    • Victory Prima Pils 64oz Growler

      Refreshingly bold and perfectly balanced, Prima has set the gold standard for Pilsners since 1996 with its German and Czech noble hops and German malt.
