Today we are proud to host the Session. Each month a bunch of beer bloggers from near and far focus on one particular topic. It’s like a big conversation about a particular item of interest to beer lovers. The Session takes place on the first Friday of each month. Today’s topic: Growlers Galore. See our original post announcing the Session. Big thanks to everyone the contributed to this month’s Session.
The Session is the brainchild of the Brookston Beer Bulletin. Visit their website to see a listing of all past sessions.

(AKA: Clean your jugs!)
“One fellow ordering a fill presents his growler, white-gray matter on the rear side. I point it out and notify him of it’s unfillable condition… His response? He wants me to fill his dirty jug.”
