GrowlerWerks UKeg Pressurized Growler Review!

[@Bodhi1satva]

I’ve wanted one of these for years, they look terrific and a lot of thought obviously went into this. Too bad no thought has gone into their customer service! Most of the reviews I’ve seen are terrible with leaking issues and most importantly no response or assistance from the company! I don’t know how these companies think they’ll survive if they don’t address the issues with customers as they arise. Until they do, I’ll go without!

[@kybrewreview]

I've used it for years and haven't had any issues.

[@bitmammothOG]

wonder how much user error is behind those reviews lol

[@carlh4350]

Good review. Looking forward to the rest of the series.

[@kybrewreview]

we have a ton more to come!

[@seanmcardle8630]

Awesome love mine best thing I ever did buy. Keeps beer fresh not like regular growlers do were you have to drink it all in about 2 days

[@claudiogonzalez8178]

Just got one for my bday thanks for the review!

[@brewliteratehomebrewingsup8749]

We found the replacement CO2 Cartridges on eBay for 12.99 a 10 Pack

[@ChristopherDillman]

4:11 - Seal of approval. 🤘

[@mdcoomer67]

Wait till they go on sale. I have two copper and one stainless, and got them for $149. I think they're running a March Madness sale now at that price. BTW...I make Moscow Mules in the copper ones and Mojitos in the stainless one. Works great!

[@ayolopez]

How about just running some PBW/Starsan cleaner through it?

[@Fluyts]

Do you make beer yourself? Do you pour it from the yeast tub into the keg instead of in bottles with sugar to make CO2? Or do you have to use beer that is completely ready with CO2 for the keg?

[@kybrewreview]

We make mead from time to time but not beer. I would recommend your beer being at the bottling stage before carbonating.

[@CroakerOutdoors]

Pretty cool. I like taking my Stanley vacuum insulated growler out camping to stop at new breweries. How long will beer last in one of these pressurized ones?

[@kybrewreview]

About 2 weeks, a little longer with stouts.

[@CroakerOutdoors]

@@kybrewreview Thanks. Probably will be scoping out a sale in the future.

[@Wyatex]

Hell yeah, I love the longer videos! Thanks for the content. Have you ever had any beer from Troegs brewing company out of Hershey PA?

[@kybrewreview]

We have not. I don't think they make it down to KY.

[@Wyatex]

Special K aww that sucks, during Christmas time they make an 11% alcohol Christmas ale called “Mad Elf” delicious il send you one during Christmas if you review it!

[@fahrbierde]

It sells for $149 at the moment and I am tempted to get it...

[@fahrbierde]

@Sam Chadwick I did one on the uKeg GO, but it's in German.

[@ixquiz]

You do not need to completely disassemble it to clean. They even have videos showing how to clean it. It's quite easy.

[@kybrewreview]

Not really, you have to take the whole sight tube off. There are easier and less finicky pressurized growlers.

[@ixquiz]

@@kybrewreview I have one and follow their cleaning videos that show very easy cleaning and have had absolutely no problems. I can link you the video if interested. Maybe they have changed how they recommend cleaning it.

[@kybrewreview]

I appreciate but we are good, we no longer use this one since we upgraded to a better pressurized growler.

[@ixquiz]

@@kybrewreview Damn. Talk about defensive. All I did was point out incorrect/outdated information. Especially since it may help others. ✌️ Good luck to you.

[@blueboy1183]

Great Review!! Now thats a cool Growler!! My Growlers Really lack in comparison most are Glass!!! Enjoyed!!

[@kybrewreview]

Glass are ok if you plan on drinking your beer right away. I like this because I can get it filled with my favorite brew and drink on it for 2 weeks!

[@que4069atl]

I could see this working with a Mr. Beer Kit

[@kybrewreview]

We happen to have one, it may happen.

[@franciscosoria9874]

What 200 $ ?! Ima buy one tho

[@kybrewreview]

If you got the cash it, Keeps the beer fresh for weeks!

[@mantodeaneotropical1659]

What’s the name of the guy with beard?

[@kybrewreview]

That would be me, special K

[@mantodeaneotropical1659]

KyBrewReview you are sexy 😍!

[@erwinvanasperen5353]

Can you put beer in straight from the fermenter (without Co2)?

[@kybrewreview]

If it been filtered and cooled, though without co2 it's not going to come out without pouring it from the top

[@erwinvanasperen5353]

@@kybrewreview Ok thx, so its not able too force carbonate?

[@kybrewreview]

It can carbonate, though I don't recommend using it for that, the keg Smith stuff is better for that.

[@TabletopBlitz]

can this growler be kept in the fridge with the C02 cart installed?

[@kybrewreview]

Yup

[@briandowd135]

I just got this for Christmas and it’s not pouring out very fast.... I just got back from the brewery and set to 6 psi, any help would be great.

[@kybrewreview]

I would make sure you have the co2 and cap screwed on properly, as well as using the correct size co2 cartridge.

[@briandowd135]

Thanks so much! Wasn’t tight enough :)

[@Bodhi1satva]

I could care less how it looks if it doesn’t work and the company doesn’t stand by it as so many reviews on Amazon have reported!

[@Wyatex]

And you have to make carbonated coffee and then put coffee liquor in it ...

[@kybrewreview]

We might do it sometime.

[@sebastianviskum3306]

hello can i fill ukeg with bottle of beer instead of draft beer?

[@kybrewreview]

You could but it would defeat the purpose of the ukeg.

[@AtariDad304]

Where do you get the co2 at?

[@kybrewreview]

Amazon, or a restaurant outlet

[@georgen6099]

I’m new to this but do I place the co2 once I’m gonna start pouring or do I gotta put the co2 even if I’m just gonna store it in the fridge

[@kybrewreview]

For this particular unit and to keep your beer fresh i recommend adding the co2 as soon as you get home from the brewery.

[@chuckdaddyfanfics]

This would make a lovely addition to my creature-cave, lol.

[@kybrewreview]

It is a beautiful growler.

[@brutalistconcrete25]

do you still use this thing?

[@kybrewreview]

Yup monthly!

[@spoilerwarning28]

Autoclave it.
