Are these durable enough to carry around a full 64oz growler? Wondering why they sell these in pairs...and doubting their durability as a result.

I believe they are plenty strong enough. I use them on the 64oz and 40oz Hydro Flasks....using them daily for over one year.

They are made of a very hard plastic. I also have a 64oz. Have not used it on it. I have used it on my 40 oz. It fits below the screw on cap, not a comfortable way to carry a 40 so I can't recommend it for a 64oz. Beware of screw cap popping off from pressure from juglug.

I use mine on my 40 oz with no problems of it cracking or breaking. I've also seen several people with it on the 64 oz growler. I have never heard of anyone having problems with the JugLug breaking.

That's what I use mine for. I'm pretty rough on it but it's still going strong.

I use them on my growlers. I haven't had to change them yet. I've had mine for 6 months but I mostly use it to tote to yoga.

It's hard plastic. I'd say it's durable. It you drop the bottle hard enough to crack the handle, you'll have a serious dent on your hydroflask.

You could, but then you would need to consume or serve the entire container. Growlers are meant for short-term storage and will not hold the carbonation or freshness. You could keg your beer and keep it pressurized with a co2 system. But that is a bit much for a one gallon batch. The yield was ten 12oz bottles or five bombers.

"Yes" they are very durable. Have been using them for over a year now and have not had any problems with them.

Not sure because I havent had an issue with them and I use this thing everyday, I pretty much carry it with me all the time. However, I would probably try the Thermos website.

Durable enough? Probably. I would put them in some kind of sack to keep them a bit safe. what you see in the pic is how they fold up.

That is why I wanted to buy them. My beer will taste great in them. I like me beer real cold. :-)

They seem pretty durable, but that's some pretty intense wear. I'm sure they would wear out faster than normal if you were doing that very often. I would worry more about them sliding around when climbing up. They fit well, but with that kind of pull, they might twist on your hand.

I have 3 of these bottles. I have had them for around a year each. I'm a little rough with them, walking miles with them most days, throwing them in my car when I'm in a rush. I even freeze water in them often, and on none of them has the lid worn, the sides cracked, or really any sign of wear shown. It's only been a year, but they've done very well so far.

We drink Sam Adams and they fit great. You do have to drink a little before putting them in so your beer doesn't over flow. If you can compare your brands to Sam Adams bottles they should be fine.

Mine were like that as well. Reading some of the other reviews, this seems to be the norm. My mugs are super sturdy and none of them have broke because of the seam/"crack".

they are difficult to seal because they are tight. just make sure everything is lined up properly (and watch your fingers). they do get easier to seal with use. this is not a defect, however, they are made to seal tightly so that they protect your beer/kombucha etc and discourage leaks.

I happen to be a brewer and own one of these. I suggest not brewing with these. I don't think they could stand the amount of weight of a full boil 6-7 gallons. You are looking at around 65lbs, which seems like its too much. I suppose you could call the manufacture and ask them. As far as being able to reach and maintain a boil, I think it could do it but I don't think it would be a hard rolling boil like brewers want.

They feel durable to me, I've used a bunch of them for moving a couple months ago and had no problems with any breaking (even with more load in them then was strictly reasonable). The plastic is a little flexible, so I doubt they are going to crack unless they stiffen substantially over time. I've not owned them for years yet, so can't conclusively say though.

I dont think it'd seal tight enough like a growler to keep it "fresh" as when you buy the beer. You may feel free to try it but i honestly think you'll have flat beer til you finish it!

They say "do not exceed 130 psi," so they should be able to handle 90. I only use them for beer so I only put a maximum of 30 psi on them.

Absolutely! I love them and have bought over a half dozen. Just do not drop one. They will crack or like I did on the bottom edge it crushed a 1" circle. They then leak to the air space but still do not leak. Will still buy more as I favor them above all others!

I'm not near the bottles but these are the really, really big ones. Each one is big. I'd say yes to your question. They last me almost a whole year.
