Need to find something for the camping beer lover on your Christmas list? This 64oz “Woodsman” growler carrier – a real thing of beauty – was hand-crafted in a South Granville living room by a local start-up called Greff. It’s constructed out of olive green waxed canvas and labrador brown leather tanned with vegetable tannins gathered from organic materials such as tree bark and leaves. The interior is insulated with felted wool, and the matching drawstring appears to be super robust. Perfect to keep your brew cool across the water and into the trees. The cost? $75.
