What is a howler?

– A howler is an alternative to a growler. It is a 32 ounce container and can be treated just as a growler. They are NOT meant for long term storage or shipping. Keep them cold and drink two refreshing pints within 7 days of filling! No howlers filled with beers on Nitro as they do not last.

Do you fill growlers?

– Yes! We fill 64 oz and 128 oz growlers (depends on availability of the beer)! We are not “growler snobs”! If you left yours at home, no problem! We have 64 oz growlers for sale (along with the 32 oz howlers)! No growlers filled with beers on Nitro as they do not last.

What is a “BoB”?

– A “Bob” is a “Bag of Beer”! It is in 64 oz bio-degradable bladder which is unbreakable and easy to pack and transport. I hold the same amount of beer as a growler and is perfect for snowshoeing, cross country skiing, ice fishing, snowmobiling, hiking, boating and all outdoor sports!
