It’s that time again. We’re rounding up all the breweries, bars and beer stores in Central Ohio where you can fill up a growler. Every year the list grows exponentially. Naysayers pegged growlers as a “hipster phase” but we know better. Is it because their eco-friendly, fresh or do we just like the fancy containers?

Note that some places will fill growlers but don’t actually sell the containers, while other places will not fill a growler that was purchased elsewhere (some even claim it’s illegal – it’s not. We’ve checked. Twice.) We’ve tried to indicate those spots below.
