    Just got another want for my target. Box is almost filling up. Now what growler to get for my target....

    Picked up another brewery-only release today...not a Want, but it's comparable to one - same brewery even! I think I'm at 6 Wants, and the growler just might end up being a real crusher. =)

    This sounds like a crazy box!

    I have a pending IP trade tomorrow for two of my targets wants. Not too many more days to make this happen but i believe my target will be happy with their box.

    Matt (exitmusic00) is a great dude. His target will def. be happy with their haul...that's for sure.

    In terms of my target, I hopefully will be wrapping up a trade for two big wants they have. Hoping to get this done so I can get the two bottles by early next week. We'll see!

    Well I think I'm all wrapped up for my bottles. 5 are wants, 2 are likely wants but very recent releases and not added to their list. The only decision left is the growler, too many good breweries so close to me.

    What brewery would be your top choice for a growler?

    1. Dark Horse
    2. Founders
    3. Arcadia
    4. Brewery Vivant
    5. Greenbush
    6. Olde Peninsula
    7. Paw Paw Brewing
    8. The Livery

    Trick question - depends on the beer. :slight_smile: I'd go with something tasty from the breweries I haven't had before (5-8), but not if we're talking about something limited or draft only from Founders.

    Nah, not crazy at all - my target has some very reasonable Wants! As far as the growler goes, IF the one I want works works out...it's a great beer, and it will crush one's sobriety quite nicely if one so chooses. =) I just gotta hope they still have it flowing on Saturday! If not, Plan B is a mighty fine 'worst case scenario.' :wink:

    I'll add a shout-out for Greenbush - everything I had there in 3 trips was very good ---> excellent...awesome brewery!

    Confirmed, this is not me :slight_frown: but a box full of wants is always a crazy box for someone right!

    Cheers to you for making it happen

    Still not knowing who my sender is I would say my preferences are....

    Founders, dark horse, livery

    But since you all are so generous as to offer growler choices, here is my list. Please rank your growler fill options.

    21st Amendment
    Magnolia
    Speakeasy
    Drakes
    Ale Industries
    Black Diamond

    Possibly Russian River or Lagunitas if I can get out this weekend.

    I just obtained and beer and was so happy cause it was on my targets wants list. I just checked and it must have been removed recently, either that or i'm nuts.

    guess it's mine now

    Hmmm I'd be interested in RR growlers...not sure what they offer in growlers!

    And Mista...I think you are going crazy...

    Though it was only a possible above, I've had a lot of Russian River, and never been disappointed. A close call for 2nd would be 21st Amendment though. Only problem is I've never had anything from the other breweries listed so my rating might be skewed.

    A hint to my box. It will include beers from 2 different states, and all breweries are within a 2 hour drive of my house. Not sure this really narrows it down :astonished:
