Tucson’s two Whole Foods locations have taken advantage of a new state law (pushed through by the Walgreens people, of all things) to offer growler fills. Currently, the same list of beer options are available at each location, but word is that the managers of each store will break out on their own, selecting beers demanded by the clientele. Good stuff available so far, including Chandler’s San Tan Count Hopula, a super delicious red imperial IPA. More growler filling stations are surely to come, including Tap & Bottle on North Sixth.
