The Daily Growler

I used to loveee this place! We were here for happy hour almost every wknd and got growlers. Great selection. So bummed lately that the prices have gone up soooo much. Happy hour is still descent but you have to watch what beer you are getting. We used to get out of here with about 5-6 pints and a growler for $20s now we are pushing $40 for the same :( Will still go here sometimes but wish the prices weren't doubled..

Make way dukes and duchesses, barons and baronesses: The Daily Growler is the KING of craft beer in Columbus.

With over sixty, six zero, 60, tap handles- there are always 59 tapped kegs of delicious, handmade, lovingly-poured, craft brewed goodness awaiting to tantalize your tastebuds.

The owner, John, is a spectacular man. Friendly and eclectic, John diligently updates the internet with the daily special- a full 64oz growler filled to the brim with delicately fizzing libation.

The Daily Growler functions on an anachronistic "milk man" system that conjures up quaint memories of a time in which I wasn't even conceived. You pay $4 up-front for a growler that you return and swap-out for a fresh, clean one each time. It completely avoids all the craft brewers pretension about growlers being a disgusting, crass disgrace of a receptacle for their prized beverage.

Furthermore, the DG happy hour lasts from 4-8pm offering incredible discounts on pints (50% off) and on the 5oz pours (25% off). So you can go and get loaded off a huge selection when those hard days at the office get you down.

The DG is bring-your-own-food (BYOF) so often times we find ourselves cooking up a great homemade meal and taking it over to the DG to have some great beer to go right alongside it.

DG has plenty of seating compartmentalized into two different rooms- one nearer the bar with long wooden benches and another farther in the back with two large TVs and lightweight, but sturdy machined aluminum chairs.

As a beer aficionado, The Daily Growler has endured many a visit from me now since it opened a short while ago. I am proud to say that it is one of my new favorite places and we'll be making plenty of room for it on the regular around-town rotation.

Great spot for the beer lovers!

This place has some great taps, I could sit and sample all day! You can't beat variety like this, especially with stiff competition from places in the area.

The only downside (and it's not much of one)  is that this is really a carry out place, and not meant to spend a lot of time drinking in. Seating is limited!

Prices were fairly reasonable.

If you love beer, stop in, but be prepared to get hooked!
