They keep your beer cold.

I know people line up on Lincoln Ave to get Growlers filled from Half Acre....have no idea how much that costs and why they line up, but seems like enough people do....

Depending on the type of beer, around $15.

"Fresh" beer is fantastic. I've never seen a line in the store though. I just get whatever they have, I don't worry about special releases.

I am guessing it is for either limited runs or specials, because Saturday mornings around 8 AM there are lines of over 100 people lined up.

I would buy that Growler is I could get PINKUS on tap....I have raved about this beer before....the worlds oldest organic brew. They carry limited supply at Whole Foods...usually 4 or 6 bottles a week. I buy 2 to 4 of them....

ah, I see, you pay now and you don't don't get the beer, you don't get a growler either.

No, you can just buy a Growler for $99 or $149....and they send you the Growler....the crowdfunding gets you some other crap.

i looked through all of it....It's a FundSharing program, so depending on your level of contribution, you get various items..

Anything from glassware for $10 contribution to the actual 60oz growler for $99 and a 128 oz growler for $149.....seems more about the cool growler concept, you take that bad boy into Piece, goose island, lagunitas and they would fill it up for a cost of their own growler i assume
