    Sorry if I spoiled the news! Keep us updated. I know a few buddies and I would love some crowlers to share during DLD.

    Once the crowler system is ready what will be the best way to find an up-to-date list of what's available in crowlers (ideally with prices too)?

    Weirdly, FR is one of the few places I don't need to see crowlers from in general. I love having a good excuse to use their cool metal growlers. :wink:

    On the other hand, great news for when I'm out and spur of the moment decide to pick something up.

    Ill gladly take the crowlers over the howlers - I must have 5 or 6 of those laying around because I never remember to bring them back with me.

    I hate having to bring around growlers every where- i forget them everytime i may want a fill somewhere...

    i also hate shipping them to friends...

    bringing them to beach... pools... bbq etc....

    also having a more accessible format allows for more one-offs and not having to do TTB label approval for every new beer

    Oh yeah man, I didn't mean it like it wasn't good news; I just really like that growler.

    I'd never say no to more one-offs. :wink:
