Behold... the Growler
I ask the moral question of my readers: Is it wrong to finish one of these on a lazy Sunday afternoon? I did, yum.
I’m speaking course of, of the John Harvard’s Growler. The Growler is nothing short of 64 fluid ounces is of pure fresh fermented goodness. No brand of beer and no flavor or method of brewing can transcend that of a fresh draught. I went to the restaurant / brew house last night with a friend and his wife and I picked up two of these on the way out. I got one each of their Oktoberfest and Pale Ale. Only the Oktoberfest remains.
The Pale Ale was sharp and fresh. It’s flavor un-tainted by the temperature changes and mishandling one often finds at beer distributors. I felt like I was drinking a dash of heaven in a pint-sized glass. Five pint size glasses, I must admit, but each better than the last.
I’ll report more on the Oktoberfest variety next weekend, if it lasts that long.
