Legal brews to go

Toledo is about to howl for craft beer. Steve Wherry made offering “growlers” a first priority when he became manager of The Beer & Wine Cave in July. After an Ohio House Bill passed allowing retail businesses to sell grab-and-go beers, Wherry began work to become one of the first in the area to do so. “This is something that should’ve happened a long time ago,” Wherry says. “I’m glad I could beat everyone else and do it first.” Now, taking home a full, 64-ounce “growler” of a well-crafted brew is possible for just $13, or $10 if you bring your own bottle. “Growlers” ensure the beer stays unpasteurized and lasts a week. Wherry says other six-packs sacrifice flavor to make a longer-lasting product.
