GROWLER FILL LOYALTY CARDS
As you know we like to lead the pack, being the first retailer in Oz to offer growler fills in store & now the first to discount them, with our growler fill loyalty cards in operation. While most loyalty schemes are exactly that, ours is pretty simple: Next time you come for a fill, you will be issued with a card, be sure to bring it back every time you fill & we stamp it, get 10 stamps, then you receive a FREE fill! This equates to a 10-15% discount, pretty easy & certainly worthwhile. After all, you can’t knock free beer!
FILLING FOR GROWLERS
HOLGATE ROAD TRIP IPA
Back with another fresh batch of this great hoppy brew, which is only ever available in kegs. Inspired by Paul & Natasha Holgate’s trip to the home of hoppy craft beer, the USA. This brew is brimming with a vibrant citrus fruit aroma & herbaceous, cleansing bitterness. Filling as we speak. If you don’t already have a growler, bottles are $15 each, while a fill of Holgate Road Trip IPA is $25.00.
