This is my collection of Growlers. A "growler" is a container of beer, typically around 64 ounces or so, that breweries, brew pubs, or any place that brews it's own beer sells to get fresh beer to it's customers. No one knows how they got their name, but it's rumored to be after the sound that grumpy old men would make if they didn't get their beer.

Tun Tavern
This is from the Tunb Tavern, Atlantic City's only brewery. Named after the bar where the US Marine Corps originally formed (that bar was in Philadelphia), they still have a massive celebration for the USMC birthday every year. Some of the beers here were so-so, I felt maybe they were dumbed down because of being in such a touristy area. The food was excellent. This growler was filled with their Irish Red. http://www.tuntavern.com/
