A 1/2 gallon or 1 gallon sized jug that breweries will fill with beer for you to take home and enjoy. Since they're filled fresh from a keg, it's recommended to drink them within 1-2 days of purchase. Breweries will sell the jugs for a few bucks, and then fills depend on the beer you're getting. They will refill their own growlers, but cannot fill ones with other brewery names because of labeling laws. (sometimes I think I know too much about beer). Sorry I missed the chop, hope to have another one soon.
