The new 64-oz. Drink Tanks Growler – created and assembled in Bend – is designed to be the most functional, durable, sustainable and amazing container of its kind. Made of double-walled, vacuum-insulated stainless steel – the same heavy-gauge steel used by breweries and dairies – Drink Tanks Growler keeps beer pure, cold and carbonated for up to 24 hours without refrigeration.
“Bend has earned a reputation for producing and consuming exceptional craft beers,” said Drink Tanks founder and president, Nicholas Hill. “What’s been missing is a growler that lets beer lovers serve their favorite brew in its purest, coldest form for hours and even days on end.” Two noteworthy differences between the Drink Tanks Growler and other growlers is it’s dual-bale lid that established a solid seal to prevent leaks and temperature changes, and a heavy-duty handle that makes it extremely easy to carry and pour.
But what truly sets Drink Tanks apart is the optional Keg Cap (patent pending) that literally turns the Growler into a personal keg. “Our Keg Cap is one of three patents pending or in design; exclusively featured for Drink Tanks Growler, “said Hill. “It’s sure to make a few jaws drop when you pour a few beers from our system at your New Years Eve party.”
Jaws have been dropping quite a lot since the growler debuted at the Great American Beer Festival this October in Denver, CO. The most common response there was along the lines of, “Freaking genius!” The positive responses continued recently at the first TiE Oregon PitchFest, where Drink Tanks was declared the Mature and Growth Stage Company winner in Portland, OR last Tuesday.
Drink Tanks’ online store (www.drinktanks.com) is now open to the public and offering the ultimate holiday gift for microbrew lovers. It also makes a great gift for people who like to transport mass quantities of other beverages, including water, coffee, tea, hot chocolate, cider and kombucha. Drink Tanks insulating powers will keep hot drinks piping hot for up to 12 hours.
The Drink Tanks Growler and the optional Keg Cap sell for $69 and $45 respectively, and are currently available only through Drink Tanks’ website. Local customers can avoid shipping charges and the customary delivery period by placing their order online and picking it up at Drink Tanks new corporate headquarters in the Century Center, 1405 SW Commerce Ave., #160, near the Volcano Theatre Pub. For holiday shopping convenience, Drink Tanks is open Monday – Saturday from 8:00 am to 7:00 pm.
