Craft Master Growlers Pressurized Growler and Growlveller Review

Growlers are one of the most convenient ways to transport large quantities of fresh beer directly from breweries, and the growler market – much like the craft beer market in general – has grown exponentially in recent years. On the beer growlers front, Craft Master Growlers produces some of the most impressive and attractive containers on the market. We recently put the company’s 128-ounce Craft Master CO2 Pressurized Growler and 64-ounce Growlveller through its paces, and the results were nothing short of excellent.

Read on to explore our reviews of these elite beer growlers to see how Craft Master Growlers are “worthy of the word craft.”

Starting off with their flagship pressurized growler, the look of this high-quality beer transporter is easily its most impressive immediate trait. Beyond its stellar craftsmanship, the growler is truly a marvel to behold. Every inch of the 128-ounce Pressurized Growler has been designed with the consumer in mind, yet its aesthetics are also quite beautiful.

Perhaps what sets the Pressurized Growler apart from its brethren is its attention to detail and brilliant design. While many companies have produced growlers that can pump beer directly from the growler, many even with CO2 add-ons, Craft Master’s is the first that truly seems to capture the essence of what getting a beer from a taproom, bar or restaurant means to consumers – that feeling of camaraderie and exploration that can only come from sharing interesting beers with good friends.

The Pressurized Growler comes in two finishes. Brushed is an attractive, muted finish that downplays the metallic aspects of the growler, whereas the mirror finish is so shiny that one could check their hair in it.

The swivel tap is a bright gold color, setting it off from the rest of the growler, and its curvaceous shape makes it an eminently eye-catching addition. Underneath the tap is a sight glass, which allows drinkers to see how much beer is left for them to enjoy within the friendly confines of the growler.

The double-wall insulated growler will keep drinks fresh and cold for hours, but one thing that needs mentioning is just how heavy this thing can get. That’s where the handle comes in.

At 128 ounces of capacity, Craft Master Pressurized Growler can hold 8 pints (roughly a 10-pack of most canned or bottled beer), which can make it seem daunting to lug to and from various breweries. With the bolted-on stainless-steel handle, transporting your brew becomes far easier.
