I just had my first pour from my shiny new !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! . I ordered the thing over a year ago and it’s finally here! CO2 cartridges go in the cap and keep the whole thing pressurized and O2-free. It’s basically the greatest thing ever.

I don’t drink beer, but I’d totally use that for sodas.

It would work great for that as well.

Can you just fill it at anywhere where they will fill a growler or is there a special way to fill it?

Depends entirely on your state’s laws. In Virginia we can get it filled at breweries, growler fill stores, or huge grocery stores will have taps (Kroger, Fresh Market, Trader Joe’s). But lots of states have incomprehensibly restrictive growler laws.

I’ve had a couple standard glass ones but they go bad within 36 hours of opening. This will keep for weeks!

Yeah we can get growlers, I was just wondering if the beer you put in their was different then normal beer because it has a carbonization imbedded.

If I lived in a state that allowed for growlers of any type to be filled, I’d 100% be in for this. Since I live in Illinois and must use growlers provided by a brewery, I must sadly pass on such a brilliant and gorgeous piece of kit.

California has incredibly restrictive and unfair laws? No way.

It doesn’t change the beer. It just pressurizes the vessel with CO2, allowing the beer to flow out of the tap, and keeping the empty space in the growler filled with CO2 rather than oxygen, which destroys beer.
