    The Answer has recently start to fill/sell Crowlers of their highly popular fruited Andalls on Tuesdays.. I figured a dedicated thread may be welcomed, especially for those who make the voyage each week for The Veil releases. Below is what is available today as well as some other disclaimers they posted earlier today. (IPAs are always available for fills) If you are on Untapped, The Answer is a Verified Venue so you can see their taplist and even pricing. They do a great job adding their own listings with descriptions so if you are curious what in the world some of these beers are since the names can be off the wall then be sure to check there. (I did the courtesy of adding descriptions this first post)
    __________________________________________________

    In addition to the great beer at The Answer you have the added benefit of having Mekong right around the corner for 50 additional taps of outstanding beer and great food. They both are must visits when in Richmond - truly destination spots for craft beer drinkers!!!

    I'm headed down in June. Looking forward to it, haven't been there in years. And now that they have crowlers I know what I'm taking with me to Virginia Beach!

    BTW - great food at Mekong, that'll be a great lunch stop for the whole family.

    Haven't been to The Answer yet but I'm really wanting to try it out. Just need to find someone to make the trip down there with.

    You won't be disappointed by The Veil. I've been 3 times now and had 2 or 3 different beers every time I'm there and I can honestly don't think they've mad a bad beer yet. My friend who usually goes with me is not a fan of IPAs and even he loves their beers.

    Damn, didn't realize you were doing Joose crowlers to go today! Was in there and picked up some IPA crowlers but the Joose didn't say they allowed crowlers. So good!

    Direct from An. Deals like this is when I wish I lived closer.
    _______________________________________________________
    ALL Drafts are $5 every Monday at both Answer and Kong (Mekong)

    It used to be more Tuesday's only but they have been increasing how often they are being done. Best thing is to ask whenever you visit. They sometimes don't advertise it.
