Yeah, that's what I was thinking.

This suggests an opening for us to design a themos-growler.

The other one posted would probably work as that. Someone just needs to ask them if we could slap our own logo on a run of them.

Charlie got back to me from Hydro Flask
Hello Graham,

Thank you for your inquiry regarding the Hydro Flask growler and the sale of it in Canada.

We are currently in the process of finalizing an agreement with a Canadian distributor which should be completed in the next two weeks. If it goes as planned you could then buy the growler direct from the Canadian distributor which would be the easiest way to purchase the growler. The other option would be to set a wholesale account with your group, if we did that we can offer you pricing lower than US wholesale to help with the shipping, duties, taxes ect cost. Please tell me know what you would like to do and we can go from there.
He didn't comment on the ability to print our own labels/get blanks for us to print later but nice to know they are supportive. If there is real interest in this I can continue my inquiries.

I received the following response about The Brauler:
Thank you for your inquiry. To answer your questions:

1. The Bräuler™ is single walled, but we plan to offer a neoprene sleeve for insulation.
2. If the cap breaks, you have a couple of options. You may purchase another cap, or, in an emergency, we designed the Bräuler™ to accept a standard fruit jar lid.
3. The first accessories to be available are the cap upgrade (black plastic) and the insulating sleeve. We are working initially on the development of the CO2 tap cap but expect that it is probably a year away from being marketed.

There is interest.. but as typical with this sort of thing, all depends on price! :)

OK, without getting into the details which I now forget due to excessive alcohol consumption, this sums up the situation. We live in the dark ages.
