I found it simply okayish... The smoke flavour seemed a bit too artificial or an afterthought to me, but even so, surprisingly drinkable.

I had to check, I never buy Twice as Mad and thought it was still only in 4-packs....I would argue that fracture is a much better IIPA, but I'd rather buy a bomber for $8.95.

I strongly prefer Twice as Mad Tom and I've had Fracture fresh from the brewery. That being said, almost every time I've seen Twice as Mad Tom at the LCBO, it's a week or two away from expiring so I never buy it. If Fracture can be found fresh, then it's likely the better option.

Apparently to be putting liquid in the growler, which is just a bottle.

A $14.00 empty bottle though? That is almost a growler with putting in of the liquid price.

Oh wow, that's quite a hefty deposit. They must have applied their standard markup to the growler itself.

I'm willing to be that's incorrect and their is actually 3 tiers of pricing for growler fills.
