Announcing a Growler Sale in honor of Groundhog Day!
You’ve seen the movie with Bill Murray where he relives the same day over and over again…
Wouldn’t that day be a whole lot better if you had good beer in the fridge – beer that was replenished every day automatically, and for free? We can’t guarantee that’s going to happen, but wouldn’t you kick yourself if it did and you missed out?
Therefore all next week enjoy our Groundhog’s Day Growler Special — Fill up (2) growlers and save $5! (1/30/12 – 2/4/12)
Town Hall has a full February in store for you. Check out all the details!
