Plenty of breweries offer growlers to-go so folks can take home their favorite beers to enjoy until their next visit. But this new Walnut Hills establishment is thinking bigger — and fresher.
Esoteric Brewing is now offering mini pony kegs, delightfully dubbed “The Lil Sebastian” (a nod to the beloved star on hit sitcom Parks and Recreation), a two-gallon $75 keg that holds 16 pints worth of a fresh, carbonated beer of your choosing.
Currently, the brewery has nine different brews to choose from — seven “core beers,” which include Lotus IPA; Dahlia, an American brown ale; Kallima, a coffee cream ale; Ethereal, a Belgian blonde ale; Paramount Porter and more — plus two seasonal beers, which include Divine Matrix, a Belgian Witbier; and Black is Beautiful, an oatmeal stout.
You can place an order for your personal keg via Esoteric Brewing’s Facebook messenger as well as confirm your preferred pick-up method — either text upon arrival and they’ll bring your keg to the back patio, or wait inside the spacious lounge for your Lil Sebastian.
If a keg is too substantial for your needs, the brewery also has growlers available in 32 oz. or 64 oz. sizes.
