I think tonight I'll polish off my half gallon "growler" of Vienna Lager I picked up from Triumph Brewing Company the other night. They are located across the street from Princeton University (hence the "growler").

Vienna Lager
From its origin in 19th century Austria, this style of amber lager has become a regional favorite in Mexico and Texas. Toasty malt flavors are accentuated by European noble hops in a medium-bodied beer.

Growlers are awesome. Some John Harvard's Pale ale over here.

current beers on tap are:

Honey Wheat
A clean malt flavor is subtly accented by local wildflower honey.

Amber Ale
Brewed in a Pacific-Northwest style. Its sweet malty taste is balanced with a generous helping of Cascade hops.

Irish Dry Stout
A tribute to the dry stouts of Dublin, roasted barley gives it a toasted, nutty flavor. Dispensed in authentic Irish fashion to bring you some of the creamiest, smoothest stout this side of Dublin.

Bengal Gold India Pale Ale
The high hopping rate and hefty alcohol content, once used to preserve this ale on the long ocean voyage to India, now provide it with a distinct aroma and robust flavor.

Rauchweizen
In the Bavarian town of Bamberg they still kiln their malt over beechwood fires. The malt absorbs the flavor of woodsmoke and imparts it, in turn, to the beer. Even when brewing hefeweizen the barley malt portion of the grist is smoked, yielding a beer that combines that smokiness with the clove and banana flavors of hefeweizen.

Extra Special Bitter
Triumph proudly pours unfiltered "real ale" finished and dispensed in the traditional British style, served at cellar temperature (50-55 degrees). Our homage to the Extra Special Bitters of England packs plenty of flavor from both malt and hops. Cheers!

Growlers are sweet. We have them at a couple brewing companies and they're called that too. They are the exact same as yours except of course the label. Then again our uni's sports teams are The Huskies. But Im not sure if thats where the name is from. Only $5 though for a refill, initial buy price of $4 I believe. They have similar beer selection as yours.. good stuff!!

yes, I don't think that's the origin of the name either, that's what they tell you at the place though.

Yeah, they call them growlers everywhere. I have a couple 1 gallon glass jugs that I got from the homebrew supply that I usually bring in to the local brewery for fills, it works great when you have more than two people.
