As much as we love the Zojirushi stainless steel mug and Contigo autoseal tumbler for their temperature retention, there are times when you need a real beast of a container.

That's where Stanley's classic 64oz. vacuum-insulated growler comes in. Whether you're stocking up on local craft brew for a party, bringing hot soup to the family picnic, sharing coffee with your hiking pals, or taking cold lemonade to the lake in summer, this thermos heartily gets the job done. It keeps cold liquids cold for 16 hours (up to 24 hours in some cases), or hot liquids hot for 12 hours. And, the flip-top lid that opens perpendicular to its oversized handle makes pouring super easy.

Get it for $40 on Amazon in your choice of Hammertone Green, Nightfall (navy blue), or Matte Black.
