When to Drink Growler?

We recommend that you drink your growler within one to two weeks when kept unopened and refrigerated. Once it is opened you should drink it, phone a friend for larger volume growlers. When a growler is opened air replaces the beer inside the growler and the remaining beer in the growler oxidizes quickly.

How long does beer in growler last?

Growlers of beer will stay fresh for several days (some say up to 10 days) if left unopened. Once opened, however, leftover beer will be flat within 36 hours at best. If a growler is filled with a full counter-pressure system, it is possible for the beer to remain fresh for up to several months.
