(OregonLive) - Oregon would become the first state to allow wine drinkers to fill up "growlers" of their favorite vintage at restaurants and stores in addition to wineries under a bill that's getting four-star reviews at the Legislature.
Taking a page out of the highly successful microbrew practice, lawmakers may allow customers to bring or buy reusable bottles and fill them straight from kegs supplied by winemakers. Current law allows the practice at wineries, but not grocery outlets, wine shops or restaurants.
