    Cans (16 oz., 4-packs, no singles).

    Would check their "to-go" page when/if you find yourself en-route

    Don't anticipate a huge selection of cans. It's been pretty spotty lately on the can front and the best stuff has generally been draft only.

    Are they still doing growlers or is that a thing of the past? Don’t remember seeing crowlers at all when I visited Brighton.

    I haven't seen them at Brighton. Does anyone do growlers anymore?

    Sorry I meant CROWLERS. But I suspect they don't do them anymore. Haven't heard one person mention a Notch crowler in a long time.

    Chris mentioned about bringing them back, but this was mid-2020. So, perhaps those plans were scrapped

    Possibly timing, given the Brighton addition, and fine tuning PLP...did prefer some of those fills over the canned counterparts

    Undoubtedly the draft is superior, but it’s nice to leave with a crowler or two.

    CBC never stopped selling growlers! I never leave CBC without a full growler in hand. And I think Idle Hands recently brought back their crowlers.

    Yeah Idle Hands does "freshies" (crowlers) of anything on draft.

    Crowlers are back in Salem (but no fills on the weekends in Oct, it's too nuts). Brighton will have crowlers in a few weeks, we wanted to be operating smoothly before we introduced that.

    We canned Dog & Pony, Fire Walk with Me, and Punto Pils today. Available in Salem now and Brighton tomorrow.

    Pitch Line Pils hits early next week in Salem & Brighton. Draft only, no bottles this time. Our 1/2 liter bottle supply has been interrupted, so this is the best we can do. This version is from freshly pitched barrels, and the impact is more noticeable than the last version.

    I’m here right now. You guys are killing me!

    I don’t think I’ve ever visited a brewery more than Notch.

    Had some tonight on tap. It’s friggin’ awesome as usual.

    Right up there with Schlenkerla, which is about the highest praise you can give a Rauchbier.

    The aroma is off the charts…wreaks of a camp fire. Awesome for a cool fall night. I’ll be snagging some in cans tomorrow for sure.

    Based upon your postings I absolutely have zero doubt here.
