A growler that can improve brewers’ access to the masses and serve beer the way they intended it — fresh, cold and carbonated — is being demonstrated in London this week.
GrowlersWerks is partnering with Brouwland, a major European distributor of craft beer equipment and home brewing supplies, and will be at Liquorette, in London, from 3pm until 8pm on Saturday.
Shawn Huff, GrowlerWerks’ co-founder, said: “We’re excited to get the uKeg into the hands of more beer lovers with this pioneer of beer equipment in the EU. Brouwland’s team of entrepreneurial beer experts embrace innovation and quality — values that we share.”
Draft taps are flowing at many popular breweries in the EU. A Society of Independent Brewers report shows about a third of small breweries now run a tap bar. And a recent story in The Guardian highlights how brewery tap bars are becoming as important as the local pub.
Europeans are loving independent, local beer, and the uKeg aims to help them take draft beer to go, keep it fresh, and share it.
An easy-to-use regulator cap, equipped with a low-cost, food-grade CO2 cartridge, partners with a vacuum-insulated, stainless-steel vessel to make the uKeg’s benefits possible. It’s a miniature keg that fits in the refrigerator, looks good in the dining room and can go wherever drinkers go.
