What we liked

  • + 32 lb growler holds nearly ten times the extract of a 3.3 lb can, for brewers who make batch after batch
  • + Made from 100 percent pure malted barley extract, per the listing
  • + Gold to amber color and a subtle malty flavor, a base that works under most ale recipes

Trade-offs

  • - Costs several times more up front than a single can, and only pays off if you brew often
  • - 32 lb has to be measured out and kept between brew days, and the listing highlights give no storage guidance
