Growler Pouch

[tcwin]

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

They sell Stainless growlers as well.

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

The exact wording of the rule is:

"Cans and glass bottles are not allowed."

Pretty straightforward.

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.

How much harder would it be to clean than anything else? I say give it a try..

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.

Thanks for the replies guys. If I buy any I will let you know how they work out.

Cheers!
