Growler Pouch


Recommended Posts

Just curious if any of you home brewers have heard of a growler pouch. Imagine a juice pouch that holds 64 ounces.

If you have used them how hard was it to clean and sanitize?

I was thinking this might be a good way to take some home brew into BWCA and reduce breakage.

Appreciate any insight you might have.

Thanks

One could argue that a growler is not a disposable item. What is the exact wording of the no cans and bottles rule?

Here is a picture of the "growler pouch".

It is supposed to keep craft beer fresher because of no exposure to air, or sunlight.

It is also re-usable and my main question was about cleaning them; I just mentioned the BWCA thing as sometimes it would be nice to have a sip or two while there.

.are those available locally? Is there a brew place in the metro that is selling those?

I saw them online and was curious if anyone here had used them.

Not sure if they are available locally.

Beer and Soda are sold in plastic bottles with screw caps. If I wanted to take beer into BWCA I would buy a six of 20 oz pepsi or 16 oz miller and dispose of the contents one way or another. Then refill with beverage of choice.

But then I am one of those old cheap guys. Or is it cheap old guys?

Oxyclean and warm water does wonders for a no-scrub clean on my brewing buckets, I bet it'd be fine for those pouches. That's all you gotta find, is a reliable way to have a no-scrub cleaning. Thorough rinsing and not letting anything dry and collect on the walls is also a good idea.

    • Sorry to hear that Duff. Will give my GSP's an extra scratch behind the ear for you guys today
    • Aw, man, sorry to hear that.  Shed some tears and remember her well.  They all take a piece of our hearts with them; some more than others.
    • yes sorry for your loss..  our dogs are always special...
    • Truly sorry to hear that duffman! I know that feeling.  Keep the good memories  
    • Chamois passed away this weekend a couple days short of her 13th bday. What a great dog to hang out with here at home and on distant adventures. Gonna miss ya big time my little big girl.
    • Sounds pretty sweet, alright. I will check them out, thanks.
    • If you really want to treat your wife (and yourself) with a remote operated trolling motor, the Minn Kota Ulterra is about easy as it gets.  Auto stow and deploy is pretty awesome.  You just have to turn the motor on when you go out and that the last time you have to touch it.   24V 80lb.  60 inch shaft is probably the right length for your boat.  They ain’t cheap - about $3k - but neither one of you would have to leave your seat to use it all day.
    • Wanderer, thanks for your reply. I do intend for it to be 24 volt, with a thrust of 70-80. Spot lock is a must (my wife is looking forward to not being the anchor person any more).  With my old boat we did quite a lot of pulling shad raps and hot n tots, using the trolling motor. Unlikely that we will fish in whitecaps, did plenty of that when I was younger. I also need a wireless remote, not going back to a foot pedal. We do a fair amount of bobber fishing. I don't think I will bother with a depth finder on the trolling motor. I am leaning toward moving my Garmin depth finder from my old boat to the new one, just because I am so used to it and it works well for me. I am 70 years old and kinda set in my ways...
    • Dang, new content and now answers.   First, congrats on the new boat!   My recommendation is to get the most thrust you can in 24V, assuming a boat that size isn’t running 36V.  80 might be tops?  I’m partial to MinnKota.     How do you plan to use the trolling motor is an important question too.     All weather or just nice weather?   Casting a lot or bait dragging?   Bobber or panfish fishing?   Spot lock?  Networked with depth finders?  What brand of depth finders?
